I've just decided which college I want to go to. How do I tell the other colleges who have accepted me that I am rejecting their offer for admission? The reason is that I keep on getting letters from the colleges I've been accepted to, wondering what my decision status is. Thanks for your help!

I need someone to Grammer and spell check this for me... Thank you so much if you get time to give me a hand.... Let me know...


I remember standing, on the front porch of my childhood home. Staring out over the acres that surrounded our home. Looking at all that had taken place over the past few months. Summer had lost its peachy warmth to the winter mists coming off the ocean.
It was late October I can recall the smell of the pine trees and the salt in the air as if it was yesterday. The sky was a winter blue and the weather carried a harsh chill.
Mother come out just behind me carrying my Jacket and scolding me for not putting it on. I hated that pink jacket, I tried to leave it every place I possibly could.
It was a gift from my grandmother. My family not having very much money, and my grandmother not having any taste for a young girl, left me with no choice.
I turned and looked at my mother asking her why I had to wear the ugly thing. She gave me that looks she would always give me when I asked a stupid question.
Even though she didn’t answer my question I continued to argue with her.
Holding the jacket out in front of me, as if it smelt of sea weed I tried to make more excuses why I didn’t need to wear it. At that point in being 13 and not looking funny was more important to me then keeping warm or catching my death.
All this time of my ranting and raving my mother just looked at me with this pitiful face not saying a word. When I finally said, “ I wonted move if she made me where it.” I crossed my arms and thought to my self that should do it. I won’t ever have to wear that ugly think again.
As I looked into my mothers face I saw tires building up in her soft green eyes. Eminently I felt a sting in my chest, and a chocking in my heart. My mind started racing. Please let me take it back I thought to myself? What have I said what did I do?
I went over to my mother and put my hand on her brown faded jacket. Never noticing tell this point the holes and the threads coming lose from the seams.
I leaned over her and put my arms around her small bony body.
How did I do such a think to not even care to notice or to think of my mothers fellings.
. Underneath the crying she muffled out, something about wanting to give me more. I started to chock thinking of the way I had acted. I felt ashamed knowing all the hard work my mother did day in day out.
This proud woman worked for nothing more then a few dollars a day. The picture of her on her knees scrubing the floors of the smiths hotel. Something I have seen so meany times.
But this time the thought filling my stomach up with guilt as a throbbing sickness cover came my body.

On the several occasions Martin Luther King Jr. expressed a view that black Americans, as well as other disadvantaged Americans, should be compensated for historical wrongs. Speaking to Alex Haley in 1965, he said that granting black Americans only equality could not realistically close the economic gap between them and whites. King said that he did not seek a full restitution of wages lost to slavery, which he believed impossible, but proposed a government compensatory program of US $50 billion over ten years to all disadvantaged groups. He posited that "the money spent would be more than amply justified by the benefits that would accrue to the nation through a spectacular decline in school dropouts, family breakups, crime rates, illegitimacy, swollen relief rolls, rioting and other social evils." His 1964 book Why We Can't Wait elaborated this idea further, presenting it as an application of the common law regarding settlement of unpaid labor.

How do you view preschool teachers in relation to the rest of the teaching world? Do you consider them an equal to the teachers you send your children to in ele, middle, and high school? Or do you see them as babysitters while you work? Also, what do you think about someone that has been a preschool teacher their whole life? Did they waste their teaching degree by being in preschool? Or should they be rewarded for their patience?
