Throughout our national United States history, many different extraordinary events, people, places, and things have occurred over these many years of time. They have all made both good and bad impacts that have caused important changes to our history. One of the most major and longest things that had a great impact on all cultures was a hardship and true evil labeled with the name discrimination. The majority of the people who were receiving the negative side of the impact at hand were black-colored people. The famous black-colored person who felt strongly enough against the issue of discrimination was a man named Mr. Booker T. Washington. W.E.B Du Bois made a point of not only mentioning Mr. Booker T. Washington but also telling a short story of his life story. With the implementation of stating what Mr. Booker T. Washington believed in, what he wanted to do about his issue, and how he planned on developing a solution to his annoying predicament, he only was providing more proof to amplify the audience’s reasoning for wanting to believe what W.E.B Du Bois wanted them to find as true.
During the period of time that Mr. Booker T. Washington was living in, discrimination was not an unknown factor in every single society that existed. The type of discrimination that Mr. Booker T. Washington had to endure on a daily basis, throughout luckily only a portion of his life, was the discrimination that white-colored people had towards their darker constituents. These darker constituents can specifically be labeled as the black-colored people. This discrimination did not simply just appear out of nowhere. It had slowly and gradually developed into what it is seen as today through the many years that have come since the beginning of slavery. When slavery had first came to be, it began to put all white-colored people, who owned slaves, under the impression that the reason for black-colored people being slaves was because of their darker skin color. These white-colored people found themselves to be of better quality of human beings because they believed to be an overall better type of human being. After slavery was completely banished throughout the United States of America, a larger amount of discrimination against blacks had quickly and constantly began its development. Even though the Northern states of the United States of America were considered as free states, even before the end of slavery had occurred, they still held a very large quantity of discriminations towards all black-colored people. In order for Mr. Booker T. Washington to have completed his dream and goal of showing the Northerners that black-colored people were not as bad as a large majority of the Northerners made them out to be, he had to gain the Northerners respect. Mr. Booker T. Washington soon then began working on getting himself an education. With this education, Mr. Booker T. Washington would be able to show all those discriminating Northerners just how sophisticated, proper, educated, and well-brought up that black-colored people could be. Since Mr. Booker T. Washington had successfully fulfilled all these basic requirements and more to there fullest potential, he was able to utilize all of his qualities and characteristics to gain him and his people the respect that they most rightfully had earned and definitely had come to deserve.
With the implementation of stating what Mr. Booker T. Washington believed in, what he wanted to do about his issue, and how he planned on developing a solution to his annoying predicament, he only was providing more proof to amplify the audience’s reasoning for wanting to believe what W.E.B Du Bois wanted them to find as true. Even though discrimination is meant to make oneself lower how they feel about their quality of life, Washington only allowed it to be the reason why he should continue to fight for its destruction.

W.E.B Du Bois
There are a large variety of societies that have developed over the many generations that have dawned on our time on earth. There are societies that may provide its many civilians with comfort, sadness, joy, confusion, discomfort, or even discrimination. These societies vary from every region to region. They develop their characteristics from the many inhabitants that have come to populate the region in question. In “The Souls of Black Folk,” W.E.B. Du Bois’s society was one filled with discrimination. The particular type of discrimination that W.E.B. Du Bois had to endure throughout his early, childhood, youthful years was the discrimination of those not willing to accept the fact that black-colored people of their generation were no longer considered as the Caucasian civilians’ slaves, but instead they were to be viewed as the Caucasian people’s equal partners in the harsh, difficult, troubling, anxiety inducing, and sometimes enjoyable game of life. Since authors are not always able to simply or easily explain their main points to the audience that their work of writing may attract, authors tend to utilize the rhetorical devices’ that have been created and provided for them by the many previous authors that have come before there time of life. Even though there is more than one form of rhetorical devices, W.E.B. Du Bois was able to make the decisions on what specific rhetorical devices would give W.E.B. Du Bois the best amount of assistance that he could have possibly needed or attained to help him interpret his main ideas and beliefs to his fellow audience members. One of the rhetorical devices that W.E.B Du Bois had finally chosen to utilize as a helper in his attempt to inform and ensure that no one in his audience would have to ever come to ponder what W.E.B Du Bois was trying to explain to them was tone. With W.E.B Du Bois using tone within his literary work, he was able to tell the literary work’s audience how he had come to feel about the world and its beliefs of him.
Tone is the interpretation of how an individual may be feeling at a certain time through one’s vocal characteristics. W.E.B Du Bois had to go through his young years of life with the darkening cloud of racial discrimination luring above his head every moment of his life. W.E.B. Du Bois was a black-colored man living in a white-colored world where slavery had seemed to have been only recently banned. The white-people of this time era also did not tend to prefer the national decision of the banning of slavery. Even though they had to learn to live with it, which did not mean that they had to come to learn to enjoy it. When W.E.B Du Bois was a boy of a young age, he was developed a liking for a certain white girl. He wanted to show the little white girl how much he really liked her. So, he decided on giving her a present from the true goodness of his heart. When he had accumulated a large enough amount of courage to go up and personally hand the gift her got for her to her, she resulted in declining his present to her without any consideration towards his feelings. She did so for only one exact reason. It was because he was born of black people meaning that he himself was also a black person. When the girl he had a major crush on had turned his gift down, he had felt disappointed and annoyed with how badly white-colored people chose to think about and treat black-colored people at the time. In order to interpret this thought of his to the audience, he used a tone that symbolized both disappointment and the feeling of being extremely annoyed with something. He stressed on the point of how the girl he was dreaming to be with had declined his gift of love with the simple fact and physical characteristic such as the darkness of his skin.

The Awakening of the Negro
All in a short period of day, God created many different non-living and living things to be placed on the earth. Amongst the many living creatures he made were two humans. Their names were Adam and Eve. God did not provide them with many rules, but he did give them one very important rule that they should never break. If they did choose to break this one rule, then they would sadly have to be banished from the amazing paradise that God had made especially for them. The single rule that they were not supposed to break was to not eat the fruit from a certain tree. This tree was evil and should never have any encounter with the both of them. There was an evil serpent that always remained on this evil tree. One day, when Eve was searching for something to satisfy her hunger for food, she had walked by the evil tree. Since the serpent was very sly and tricky, he knew that it would talk very little effort to convince Eve to eat a fruit from the tree. So, the serpent got Eve’s attention. It began to tell her how scrumptious the fruit of his tree was. It also told her how it would not only surely fulfill her hunger, but it would also be the best fruit that would ever have the opportunity for her to consume. She ended up eating the fruit, which she was never supposed to let touch her lips, let alone her stomach. After she had eaten this delicious, yet evil fruit, she wanted to give Adam the same opportunity she was given and allow him to eat this amazing fruit. Since Adam was given the time to come to develop a strong relationship with Eve, he took the fruit in hand and ate it without question. Immediately after Adam ate the apple, God had appeared before the both of them and soon banned them from the paradise of which they were born. Since Adam had broken God’s most important rule, he has caused all humans after him to have to not be born into a paradise but a cruel and bitter world. In Booker T. Washington’s “The Awakening of the Negro,” the only thing he could rely on to lessen the harshness of the world was to get an education.
Even though every human is forced to come to terms with the many challenges that this world makes us face, not every human has the same amount or harsh quality of disputes in their lives. In order to show his audience how his quality of youth was not a very pleasant one, he implemented pathos in “The Awakening of the Negro.” He used pathos by being very descriptive. Washington gives specific examples of how badly blacks had to live. If blacks had an education, then they would not be so helpless. “By walking, begging rides, and paying for a portion of the journey on the steam-cars, I finally succeeded in reaching the city of Richmond.” (Washington 1) This sentence yet again describes how poverty, in that time era, is common in a black person’s life, especially one without an education. With an education, black people would be able to solve many things for themselves. They would be able to read and write. Without an education, if a black person needed money, then they had to earn that money on the spot, but with an education, a black person could get a job easily. This job would be received by the presentation of the type of degree that that black person had earned in college. If a hospital was looking for a doctor that they needed to hire, then the black person’s doctorial degree will be the help and proof that the black person needs to prove to the hospital that they are the person they are looking for.
In Booker T. Washington’s “The Awakening of the Negro,” the only thing he could rely on to lessen the harshness of the world was to get an education. Even though Adam threw away our opportunity of living in a true paradise, God still cared enough for us by giving us the opportunity to change our world around for the better through education.

The Yellow Wallpaper Reponse
Charlotte Perkins Gilman was a woman who had a whole lot of emotions conflicting each other and going crazy within her life. Since authors are known for writing about what they are the most knowledgeable on or what they truly believe in life, Charlotte Perkins Gilman implemented a large portion and variety of pathos within her story, “The Yellow Wallpaper.” Since she used pathos in her piece of writing, she was using a literary technique to try an appeal to the audience’s emotional side.
When she placed pathos within her story, she did so to show her audience how much stress was being inflicted on her, on a daily basis. When Gilman is explaining to the audience that her husband is a trained physician and tells her that she simply has temporary nervous depression, she states that his unwillingness to be even partially religious “is one reason I don’t get well faster.” (Gilman, 1) The fact that her husband is not willing to listen to her and believe her, when she says that she thinks she may have a serious sickness, shows the audience how the husband, in actuality, is only adding to the amount of stress that is already being applied onto her. When instead of hurting her even more, he should listen to his wife and try to help her more. Her husband and brother both thought that it would be logical for her to cease from working. When she is describing this to her audience, she states the many things relating to labor that she is not allowed to do. By describing the situation in this way, she stresses to her audience how much she really does love to work. While she is telling her audience about how her husband and her brother try to vocally tell her that she should keep away from any type of labor, she instead does the complete opposite and tries to continue working without getting caught by either her husband or her brother. Yet again, when her husband and her brother make an attempt to try and stop her from pursuing what she truly happens to love in life, they are counteracting there purpose for wanting her to cease from doing any type of labor. Instead, they result in causing her more stress because she has to use a whole lot of her mental power trying to worry about getting caught working. Another reason for why she put pathos into her literary work was to ensure herself that her audience would not become confused. She made sure that her audience would not have to ever ponder what she was talking about by writing her story as if she were personally talking to her audience. “So I will let it alone and talk about the house.” (Gilman) When she states this, she is writing this story as if she were directly talking to her paper’s audience. Instead of simply going straight to talking about the house, she provides her audience with a direct statement saying that she will begin to discuss on the subject of the house she was looking at. Since she just wrote that she would start writing down what she thought of the house, she was trying to form a close relationship with her audience members by making sure that they do not become confused on what the author is talking about. She used pathos when she described the house by first clearly stating that she thought it was beautiful. After that she carefully started describing the house in complete detail. Also, instead of simply using one or two sentences to describe what she thought of the house, she decided to dedicate a whole paragraph on the topic. She also uses pathos to describe to her audience how thinking about her condition makes her feel. “I confess it always makes me feel bad.” (Gilman) Her condition makes her feel like a huge cloud of dreariness is floating above her because she is filled with so much depression a large majority of the time. Pathos gives Gilman the opportunity to not only tell her audience her story but to do so and appeal to her audience’s emotions.

Even though veterinarians can get paid a good amount of money, they are always in competition with each other, for their service. Even though a veterinarian can go through all that schooling and may have attained their doctoral degree, these things still may not be enough to try and convince an animal’s owner that they know what they are talking about and that they can be trusted. Being a veterinarian does not only consist of helping animals get a healthy body or maintain a healthy diet. Being a veterinarian means that you are also helping and aiding the owners of the animals that the veterinarian is administering their care on. It is not an easy task to get clients to listen to a veterinarian. No matter how educated or logical the veterinarian’s advice may sound, there are always those owners who believe that they may know better than the veterinarian and do not need to listen to the veterinarian. If a person had wanted to become a veterinarian that works on a farm, then they are most likely to not be able to receive the many basic skills that are needed by the veterinarian to successfully give care to the animal in need of it from the veterinary schooling provided by very few colleges. These people wanting to become farm veterinarians have to acquire these skills through personal experience and hands-on training. Veterinarians may be highly well - educated, but at times, veterinarians may need to consult other veterinarians in situations, which may have caused the veterinarian to be filled with complete confusion. The article was mainly about how to improve veterinarian companies. Which means that there were very few things that were said about what veterinarians do or anything else that could possibly inform people that want to become veterinarians about a veterinarian’s normal job description. This article has helped me by giving me the realization that, even though a veterinarian may have all that education and that they are labeled as a legal doctor, there will still be individuals that will not respect all the schooling a veterinarian has and will refuse to take the veterinarian’s advice into high consideration.

When someone places their self in the line of work of veterinary medicine, they are amplifying their risk of receiving any type of injuries or possible pain that can be inflicted on them. This article gives a basic and simplistic description of what things could be classified as possibilities that can go wrong with the patients that a veterinarian may see. Larry Clark makes sure that his audience members will not become confused or puzzled on what he happens to be talking about, in his article, by placing a direct example of what could happen to a veterinarian when they are working with a very distressed, injured, and ill animal. This article tells all the high school students, from its audience members, that, if they are inspiring to become a veterinarian in their future, then they can look into possibly job shadowing a veterinarian that they may be familiar with. Another thing Larry Clark implements in his article, so that none of his audience members will have to ponder the situation in order to find an answer, is how a real-life scenario of what patients and their owners may act like. Veterinarians have the many opportunities to join the many different animal assisting organizations in this world, and they can use their education and experience to help those that cannot afford a veterinarians normal fee by lowering it or doing it for free. Larry Clark also gave many of the audience members wanting to become veterinarians his advice to how to get started on the right path, stay on the right path, and to use their acquired knowledge to change the world for the best. An inspiring veterinarian should have a great love for all of the animals on this earth. An inspiring veterinarian should a high level of compassion. An inspiring veterinarian should make sure that they are continuously getting good grades throughout their schooling. Veterinary colleges are some of the hardest colleges to try to enroll into. They require many different things from any college students that want to enroll into any of these veterinary colleges. This article continues to mainly talk about People’s social life and talks very little about the veterinary field. This article helped me by giving me credible advice that I can use in my consideration of becoming a veterinarian. It was a credible source because Larry Clark was a veterinarian with many years of experience.

Veterinarians can give farmers assistance on their cattle. They can give the farmer’s cattle, which have previously been mothers already, help with giving life to a new healthy group of offspring. This new offspring can also be closely duplicated with the intervention of a veterinarian. They complete this almost exact duplication with the use of embryo transfers. Veterinarian’s purpose for working and going through the process of educating themselves is to use all of their knowledge to make the world we live in into a better place. They also are placed with the responsibility of saving as many lives as physically possible. Veterinarians are required to use various types of experimentation to solve any type of problems that they may be faced with. They must find the solutions that will solve the complications that happen to be occurring in their subject’s life. Veterinarians are required to become knowledgeable on how the male’s sperm system operates. With this important knowledge, veterinarians can help owners’ pets or livestock give birth to a healthy and strong set of offspring. The veterinarian has to carry a large majority of the responsibility in ensuring that the farmer’s cattle give birth in the proper format. They are responsible for recording any type of complications that may or are probable to occur to the animal. They must discover administer any treatment that is required for the cattle with the cattle best interests in mind. When giving care to the mother cattle in need of assistance, the veterinarian has to not only worry about the mother’s best interests but the mother’s young’s best interest as well. If the veterinarian does not take precaution in deciding the correct way of helping the pregnant cow feel better, then the veterinarian may be risking both the mother cow and young’s lives. This article talks about both animals and what the animals eat. Even though what the animals eat is a very important thing, it drifts away from the subject of veterinarians. This article helped me by informing me how much veterinarians must analyze a situation and why they must do so.

The article gives a basic but informative history on the veterinarians of our earlier generations. It clearly states that vets of that earlier generation were most likely not women. In fact, at that time, there were a very minute percentage of veterinarians that were of the female gender. All veterinarians are continually requiring themselves to worry about updating the technology they use, the knowledge they acquire, and the medicine that they create and use on their patients. This provides the veterinarian with a large majority of stress to deal with on a daily basis. It places stress on the veterinarian physically, mentally, and psychologically, all at once. The number of women that are in the veterinarian field has also increased to an outstandingly, huge percentage of eighty-five percent. This percentage is found to be so amazing because, as the article stated earlier, women were not likely to be found performing the duties required from the average veterinarian. They were also not usually simply welcomed with open arms by the many sexist people living in that era of time. So, when the percentage of women in the veterinarian field was found to be such a large percentage of eighty-five percent, it was simply amazing that over the passing years from that sexist time era the percentage of women being allowed to educate themselves in the veterinarian science had increased to such a high percentage. Veterinarians happen to meet a large portion of “good” people through their line of work. They meet the people that actually give a care about all the other living creatures on this earth, besides human beings. These are the people who will not simply pass up a helpless animal that just may be lying there on the ground in need of immediate medical attention. They are the people who will bring in any animal in need of a veterinarian and will pay for an animal that is not even under their ownership. The article does not have a single complete paragraph throughout it. There is not even one paragraph that contains a total number of at least eight sentences in it. This article helped me because it informed me how stressful the job of a veterinarian can be, and this stress would be placed on me on a day-to-day basis.

Veterinarians provide their assistance with farmers and society by making sure that our food supply is safe for our consumption and that farmers get as much as they can possibly make from their food supply business. Being a veterinarian does not only revolve around the fact they have to take care of injured or ill animals through surgery, check-ups, or any other type of type of treatment. Sometimes, data recording is absolutely necessary to keep the veterinarian up to date with how the animal’s health and current condition is looking. The recording of the data also can be used as evidence to convince those who doubt the credibility of the veterinarian, who recorded the data, that the veterinarian’s ideas and beliefs are correct. It is not always a simple task to try to convince farmers that what a veterinarian thinks is the best form of treatment is usually the most logical and correct solution to choose. Veterinarians will have to work with many other professionals such as nutritional advisors, breeding specialists, and financial consultants. Since these professionals join as one to work together, they are able to solve whatever issue may come about. Veterinarians get paid a good rate for their advice. Veterinarians give the animal owners drugs to help get the changes needed for the sick and hurt animals. Anyone wanting to become a veterinarian that works on mainly farms needs to have certain requirements. Farm veterinarians must have a strong interest in livestock farming. Farm veterinarians must work as a team when it comes to farming. Farm veterinarians must expect to be required to record data and analyze situations. Farm veterinarians must give respect give respect and receive respect from anyone they meet. Farm veterinarians must specialize in the area of a farm animal veterinarian. Being a veterinarian for animals that are found on a farm is considered as a sixteen veterinarian mixed practice. A farm veterinarian must also have the job of being an advisor to industry bodies. The article gave excess information that was not pertaining to the veterinarian field. The article helped me by telling me what to expect if I were to become a veterinarian for farm animals.

This article provides all of the audience members with the definition of a zoo veterinarian. This article provides all of the audience members wishing to become a zoo veterinarian with possible questions that they may want to ask a zoo veterinarian. With these questions, they provide within the article the answers for the possible questions that could have been asked by those ambitious on becoming a zoo veterinarian. A zoo veterinarian is a veterinarian that is specially trained and educated to work with the many exotic animals that a person can find at a zoo on a daily basis. Since these zoo veterinarians are assigned to work in zoos, they have to observe and care for a large variety of different animals on a day-to-day basis. With this fact in mind, the zoo veterinarian has to be educated on each and every one of these very different and sometimes unique animals. They have to be set with the knowledge of all the different anatomies, behaviors, and characteristics of all the zoo animals. These many zoo animals are very much different from each other in so many ways. Since they are so different from each other, that means that, the zoo veterinarian has the difficult challenge of trying to memorize the many facts needed to perform their daily jobs at the zoo that they happen to work at. Besides simply having to use their minds to memorize facts and details, these zoo veterinarians have to do other things as well. They must give their patients routine examinations to ensure that the animal is healthy. They are responsible to give their subjects any vaccinations that the animal is not up to date with. They have to take care of any injured or ill animals. The starting salary for a zoo veterinarian is at approximately $40,000. If the zoo veterinarian has been working for a longer period of time, then they are can get paid up to about $80,000. When they told Mitch Finnegan’s story, the author was very brief and not very descriptive. The article helped me by giving me a lot of facts on zoo veterinarians.

Veterinarians have a tendency to make friends with a good amount of the owners and their pets or livestock. This article gives a very brief history on what veterinarians should preferably be back from the very beginning of the history of veterinarians. In the extremely early years of the blossoming of the veterinarian study, a sexist world was very much present. Women were not considered as smart enough, strong enough, or manly enough to successfully attain the requirements needed to become a veterinarian. Men, at the earlier time in history, believed that women could not acquire these requirements and most definitely could not carry out these requirements. This article describes to all of its audience members what they should expect and be ready for anything to encounter them if they wanted to work on any type of farm. Even though male practices have been more common, the amount of large and local practices continues to remain very numerous and is still standing strong. This article gives all of its audience members an updated version on how a veterinarian is called down for any type of emergencies by farmers. Veterinarians have to demand a lot from themselves. They have to demand both physical and emotional energy and time from themselves. Veterinarians do not only help the animals that they are working on. They help the owners of the animals that they are working on as well. This article main objection was to explain to its audience members what Christine Howe’s interests and life story were. This article did give its audience members true facts, but it also gave them false information as well. This article gave its audience members false information because the author states that he “was interested in medicine, but not in people, so the obvious thing was veterinary science.” (Parr, 3) When someone is a licensed veterinarian, they are not only constantly interacting with many animals on a daily basis but with numerous people as well. This article helped me by keeping me up to date with any current changes that have been made in the average farm veterinarian’s life.

Veterinarians save many lives on a daily basis and ease the lives of so many animals and people at the same time. The job of a veterinarian is both extremely time consuming and very much physically demanding. Veterinarians are responsible for a large variety of animals. Also, a veterinarian must always be prepared for an emergency to occur at any point in time. A veterinarian must be mentally and physically prepared for an emergency patient that may need to be given immediate treatment and care. A veterinarian has to worry about the demand of the attention towards recovering surgery patients, new surgery patients, and the regular check-ups that occur on a daily basis. Since a veterinarian works with animals continuously and constantly, the veterinarian would want to have a love for animals and a passion for wanting to help them. The article gives an average amount of patients that could possibly be seen everyday at a veterinarian’s work place. The article gave an example of what a veterinarian’s schedule could look like. When the example schedule is actually observed closely, it is made an obvious fact that a veterinarian’s normal day-to-day schedule takes up a large majority of that veterinarian’s life. A veterinarian can get a salary check starting at $50,000. After the veterinarian has attained a good number of years working as a veterinarian, then the veterinarian can end up getting a paycheck resulting in $90,000. Those inspiring to become veterinarians must have as much knowledge in both math and science as possible before they try to enroll themselves into a veterinary college. Veterinarians must be able to manage both the animals and people they are working with. They must have a love for animals and be disciplined. A veterinarian must have a bachelor’s degree in either animal science or biology. Then the students must try to enroll themselves into a four year Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program. The article asks questions but does not provide the audience with the answers. This article helped me by telling me all the requirements that inspiring veterinarians need to have or attain.

The main importance of having veterinarians is that they give there assistance to owners in receiving any type of early detection of anything that could possibly cause any harm to the animal that the veterinarian is looking at. Veterinarians give physical examinations to pets varying of all sorts and ages. A veterinarian’s job will consist of helping an animal in lengthening its life span, through keeping the animal in a healthy state. Veterinarians are required to have some kind of knowledge on about almost every single subject that they will be working on or with. They must be informed on facts such as the many different anatomies of animals, average life spans of animals, any diseases that the animal may be highly prone to, and so much more. Veterinarians are required to keep a record of what the subject’s body condition is. With this important information, veterinarians can decide on any exercises or dietary changes that need to be put into effect in the animal’s life. With these necessary changes, the animal’s life would attain a healthy state. After the animal’s life has acquired its proper state of healthiness, then the veterinarian must tell the owner of how they can regulate there animal’s good health. The veterinarian’s physical examination will consist of checking the animal’s gums and teeth, for any type of dental diseases or any of these dental diseases’ horrible symptoms that may be present. The article gave the audience of readers a definition on what dental diseases where. The article also described the audience of readers of how owners of an animal can try to prevent these terrible diseases from occurring in their animal’s mouth. This article gives the many animal owners, in the author’s audience, the numerous things they should look for in their animals that will indicate that something may be wrong with them. Veterinarians administer a large variety of standardized tests, on animals of all sorts that can quickly inform the veterinarian that something is wrong with the animal or that something will be wrong with the animal in the near future. This article is deceiving. It is said that this type of care should be administered to older pets, but this form of care should be used upon pets of all ages. This article helped me by giving me a lot of information how veterinarians help owners.

Veterinary technicians are very similar to our average nurses. They are mainly assisting veterinarians usually with cats and dog. They are capable of administering medicines, preparing samples for examinations, and recording data on a wide variety of animals. They can be found in a large amount of animal treating facilities. They work about an average of forty hours a week, but their work hours mainly depend on the veterinarians they are working with. They have to go through a minimum of two years of college. Their salaries depend on their experience, employment type, working location, and responsibility level. The Bureau of Labor Statistics starts the average pay at $11.99 in May 2004, and the top ten percent had received more than $17.12. Joliet Jr. College’s veterinary medical technology program had begun in the year 1999. Its purpose of creation was because of the multiple requesting demands for veterinarian technicians, by veterinarians. The National Dissemination Center for Career and Technical Education declared in it its 2002 designation as a “Promising Postsecondary Program.” One hundred percent of the students passed the national board exam given to them. The students are continually educated on any current information. This program is about a ten thousand square foot area where students labor in open labs and study areas are housed. Architects have created a place where students can freely use the facility, built for them, as a veterinary clinical classroom. It has passed the U.S. Department of agriculture and the American Veterinarian Medical Association inspections. They learn how to use many of the technology used by veterinarian technicians. They are given hands on training by being assigned a cat or dog that they have to care for and give weekly physical exams to. They are required to record their findings, based on their assigned pet, and after they are through with that, a veterinarian writes them orders to execute by themselves on their own time. The article was not helpful because it talked about students attending a college, which I was not planning on attending. It helped me to still get an understanding on what veterinarian technicians do.

Even though veterinarians can get paid a good amount of money, they are always in competition with each other, for their service. Even though a veterinarian can go through all that schooling and may have attained their doctoral degree, these things still may not be enough to try and convince an animal’s owner that they know what they are talking about and that they can be trusted. Being a veterinarian does not only consist of helping animals get a healthy body or maintain a healthy diet. Being a veterinarian means that you are also helping and aiding the owners of the animals that the veterinarian is administering their care on. It is not an easy task to get clients to listen to a veterinarian. No matter how educated or logical the veterinarian’s advice may sound, there are always those owners who believe that they may know better than the veterinarian and do not need to listen to the veterinarian. If a person had wanted to become a veterinarian that works on a farm, then they are most likely to not be able to receive the many basic skills that are needed by the veterinarian to successfully give care to the animal in need of it from the veterinary schooling provided by very few colleges. These people wanting to become farm veterinarians have to acquire these skills through personal experience and hands-on training. Veterinarians may be highly well - educated, but at times, veterinarians may need to consult other veterinarians in situations, which may have caused the veterinarian to be filled with complete confusion. The article was mainly about how to improve veterinarian companies. Which means that there were very few things that were said about what veterinarians do or anything else that could possibly inform people that want to become veterinarians about a veterinarian’s normal job description. This article has helped me by giving me the realization that, even though a veterinarian may have all that education and that they are labeled as a legal doctor, there will still be individuals that will not respect all the schooling a veterinarian has and will refuse to take the veterinarian’s advice into high consideration.

When someone places their self in the line of work of veterinary medicine, they are amplifying their risk of receiving any type of injuries or possible pain that can be inflicted on them. This article gives a basic and simplistic description of what things could be classified as possibilities that can go wrong with the patients that a veterinarian may see. Larry Clark makes sure that his audience members will not become confused or puzzled on what he happens to be talking about, in his article, by placing a direct example of what could happen to a veterinarian when they are working with a very distressed, injured, and ill animal. This article tells all the high school students, from its audience members, that, if they are inspiring to become a veterinarian in their future, then they can look into possibly job shadowing a veterinarian that they may be familiar with. Another thing Larry Clark implements in his article, so that none of his audience members will have to ponder the situation in order to find an answer, is how a real-life scenario of what patients and their owners may act like. Veterinarians have the many opportunities to join the many different animal assisting organizations in this world, and they can use their education and experience to help those that cannot afford a veterinarians normal fee by lowering it or doing it for free. Larry Clark also gave many of the audience members wanting to become veterinarians his advice to how to get started on the right path, stay on the right path, and to use their acquired knowledge to change the world for the best. An inspiring veterinarian should have a great love for all of the animals on this earth. An inspiring veterinarian should a high level of compassion. An inspiring veterinarian should make sure that they are continuously getting good grades throughout their schooling. Veterinary colleges are some of the hardest colleges to try to enroll into. They require many different things from any college students that want to enroll into any of these veterinary colleges. This article continues to mainly talk about People’s social life and talks very little about the veterinary field. This article helped me by giving me credible advice that I can use in my consideration of becoming a veterinarian. It was a credible source because Larry Clark was a veterinarian with many years of experience.

Veterinarians can give farmers assistance on their cattle. They can give the farmer’s cattle, which have previously been mothers already, help with giving life to a new healthy group of offspring. This new offspring can also be closely duplicated with the intervention of a veterinarian. They complete this almost exact duplication with the use of embryo transfers. Veterinarian’s purpose for working and going through the process of educating themselves is to use all of their knowledge to make the world we live in into a better place. They also are placed with the responsibility of saving as many lives as physically possible. Veterinarians are required to use various types of experimentation to solve any type of problems that they may be faced with. They must find the solutions that will solve the complications that happen to be occurring in their subject’s life. Veterinarians are required to become knowledgeable on how the male’s sperm system operates. With this important knowledge, veterinarians can help owners’ pets or livestock give birth to a healthy and strong set of offspring. The veterinarian has to carry a large majority of the responsibility in ensuring that the farmer’s cattle give birth in the proper format. They are responsible for recording any type of complications that may or are probable to occur to the animal. They must discover administer any treatment that is required for the cattle with the cattle best interests in mind. When giving care to the mother cattle in need of assistance, the veterinarian has to not only worry about the mother’s best interests but the mother’s young’s best interest as well. If the veterinarian does not take precaution in deciding the correct way of helping the pregnant cow feel better, then the veterinarian may be risking both the mother cow and young’s lives. This article talks about both animals and what the animals eat. Even though what the animals eat is a very important thing, it drifts away from the subject of veterinarians. This article helped me by informing me how much veterinarians must analyze a situation and why they must do so.

The article gives a basic but informative history on the veterinarians of our earlier generations. It clearly states that vets of that earlier generation were most likely not women. In fact, at that time, there were a very minute percentage of veterinarians that were of the female gender. All veterinarians are continually requiring themselves to worry about updating the technology they use, the knowledge they acquire, and the medicine that they create and use on their patients. This provides the veterinarian with a large majority of stress to deal with on a daily basis. It places stress on the veterinarian physically, mentally, and psychologically, all at once. The number of women that are in the veterinarian field has also increased to an outstandingly, huge percentage of eighty-five percent. This percentage is found to be so amazing because, as the article stated earlier, women were not likely to be found performing the duties required from the average veterinarian. They were also not usually simply welcomed with open arms by the many sexist people living in that era of time. So, when the percentage of women in the veterinarian field was found to be such a large percentage of eighty-five percent, it was simply amazing that over the passing years from that sexist time era the percentage of women being allowed to educate themselves in the veterinarian science had increased to such a high percentage. Veterinarians happen to meet a large portion of “good” people through their line of work. They meet the people that actually give a care about all the other living creatures on this earth, besides human beings. These are the people who will not simply pass up a helpless animal that just may be lying there on the ground in need of immediate medical attention. They are the people who will bring in any animal in need of a veterinarian and will pay for an animal that is not even under their ownership. The article does not have a single complete paragraph throughout it. There is not even one paragraph that contains a total number of at least eight sentences in it. This article helped me because it informed me how stressful the job of a veterinarian can be, and this stress would be placed on me on a day-to-day basis.

Veterinarians provide their assistance with farmers and society by making sure that our food supply is safe for our consumption and that farmers get as much as they can possibly make from their food supply business. Being a veterinarian does not only revolve around the fact they have to take care of injured or ill animals through surgery, check-ups, or any other type of type of treatment. Sometimes, data recording is absolutely necessary to keep the veterinarian up to date with how the animal’s health and current condition is looking. The recording of the data also can be used as evidence to convince those who doubt the credibility of the veterinarian, who recorded the data, that the veterinarian’s ideas and beliefs are correct. It is not always a simple task to try to convince farmers that what a veterinarian thinks is the best form of treatment is usually the most logical and correct solution to choose. Veterinarians will have to work with many other professionals such as nutritional advisors, breeding specialists, and financial consultants. Since these professionals join as one to work together, they are able to solve whatever issue may come about. Veterinarians get paid a good rate for their advice. Veterinarians give the animal owners drugs to help get the changes needed for the sick and hurt animals. Anyone wanting to become a veterinarian that works on mainly farms needs to have certain requirements. Farm veterinarians must have a strong interest in livestock farming. Farm veterinarians must work as a team when it comes to farming. Farm veterinarians must expect to be required to record data and analyze situations. Farm veterinarians must give respect give respect and receive respect from anyone they meet. Farm veterinarians must specialize in the area of a farm animal veterinarian. Being a veterinarian for animals that are found on a farm is considered as a sixteen veterinarian mixed practice. A farm veterinarian must also have the job of being an advisor to industry bodies. The article gave excess information that was not pertaining to the veterinarian field. The article helped me by telling me what to expect if I were to become a veterinarian for farm animals.

They work about an average of forty hours a week, but their work hours mainly depend on the veterinarians they are working with. They have to go through a minimum of two years of college. Their salaries depend on their experience, employment type, working location, and responsibility level. The Bureau of Labor Statistics starts the average pay at $11.99 in May 2004, and the top ten percent had received more than $17.12. Joliet Jr. College’s veterinary medical technology program had begun in the year 1999. Its purpose of creation was because of the multiple requesting demands for veterinarian technicians, by veterinarians. The National Dissemination Center for Career and Technical Education declared in it its 2002 designation as a “Promising Postsecondary Program.” One hundred percent of the students passed the national board exam given to them. The students are continually educated on any current information. This program is about a ten thousand square foot area where students labor in open labs and study areas are housed. Architects have created a place where students can freely use the facility, built for them, as a veterinary clinical classroom. It has passed the U.S. Department of agriculture and the American Veterinarian Medical Association inspections. They learn how to use many of the technology used by veterinarian technicians. They are given hands on training by being assigned a cat or dog that they have to care for and give weekly physical exams to. They are required to record their findings, based on their assigned pet, and after they are through with that, a veterinarian writes them orders to execute by themselves on their own time. The article was not helpful because it talked about students attending a college, which I was not planning on attending. It helped me to still get an understanding on what veterinarian technicians do.

Poe Response
Whenever an author creates any type of literary work, they are bound to receive many different responses and reviews on their writing. Literary critiques can be considered as a good thing for the author. They provide the author with a variety of opinions and beliefs of how the author can improve their literary work. Even though literary responses can be viewed upon as helpful sources of improvement, they can only be looked upon this way if the author of the literary response has formulated their views, on the literary work they are commenting on, with sufficient and trustworthy reasons support their reasoning for even developing their ideas of improvement. The author of the literary work, which is doing the critiquing, must formulate good main points and include adequate support for their main points within their literary response. Even though Jeanne M. Malloy did properly implement her main points and support for these main points, she could have done so in a better fashion.
Every type of literary work must contain, at the least, one main point. An author must implement a main point into their literary work so that their audience will have an understanding on what the author is trying to persuade them to believe. Without the inclusion of an author’s main points, the audience would become confused on what the author’s purpose for writing their literary work was, and the author would then be without a rationale for developing the literary work in the first place. In order to ensure that her audience would be fully aware of what she was exactly attempting to convince them on, Jeanne M. Malloy made sure that she placed both of her main points within her literary response to Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Pit and the Pendulum.” Jeanne M. Malloy’s main points were that Edgar Allen Poe “couched … events in apocalyptic imagery” (Malloy, 82) and “using apocalyptic imagery as part of a psychological reconception.” (Malloy, 86) In order to provide logos for these main points the author had to use support of many different varieties. Jeanne M. Malloy used outside resources, such as the Book of Revelation, to help prove her point that Edgar Allen Poe used apocalyptic imagery throughout her literary review. “Hirsch, for example, is comfortable with the conclusion.” (Malloy, 83) Besides simply remaining to his views, he used other people’s views and ideas to support his main ideas. Since Jeanne M. Malloy used a wide variety of support, she succeeded in providing logos for her main points, but she did have some flaws within her literary response.
Even though the author may find their literary work perfect, there will always be room for improvements. When Jeanne M. Malloy was trying to explain to her audience why she believed in her main points and why they were right, she tended to leave some deeper descriptions out. These descriptions were necessary in order for the audience to understand why her explanations were logical. Jeanne M. Malloy claims that “Poe heralds … an announcement amply fulfilled by the violence, pain, and horror experienced by the narrator in his prison cell,” (Malloy, 82-83) but after she says this, she does not explain why she believes that to be so. Jeanne M. Malloy tends to get off topic as well. On page eighty-five of Jeanne M. Malloy’s literary response the paragraph starting with “according,” she dedicates that whole paragraph to talk about English Romantic literature, a supporting detail. So, she is basically supporting her supporting detail instead of using her supporting detail to support her main points. By getting off topic she is only placing unneeded and excess information into her literary response. Which will result in confusing the audience on what the author’s true main points are. If she did not make these flaws, then her literary response would sound and flow so much smoother.
Even though Jeanne M. Malloy did properly implement her main points and support for these main points, she could have done so in a better fashion. Since there are no literary works that will ever be perfect, there was bound to be flaws within Malloy’s own literary response. Even the literary responses need literary responses to make them better.
