An honors program is an opportunity giver. She is picky. She does not want her gifts to go to waste, so she saves them for only those who deserve them, for those who show promise. I hope that I have the promise that she wants to see in me. I do not say this with a shake in my voice for I am proud of my accomplishments, I am sure of my abilities, yet I know not what she wants to see.
Some may think it is innate talent, but I don’t know if that is truly what she wants to see. In fact, I believe the promise of a student is identified, instead, by two traits: one’s motivation and one’s ability to accept and learn from failures. She looks for those students who have identified their innate abilities and maximized them through hard work. Hard work

Through the research opportunities available only via the honors program and CURO, I hope to begin undergraduate research during my freshman year at UGA. This experience will give me a chance to explore the field of machine learning in depth and become a more effective researcher. Through research opportunities, I hope to publish research that will bring recognition to the honors program. Moreover, I would like to, through the interdisciplinary studies degree program, study biological applications in machine learning. I am especially excited about this degree program because otherwise I would not be allowed to study computer science, neuroscience, genetics, and statistics in depth. Instead, I would take course in these fields and receive a degree in only one of these fields, whereas a study of all fields is necessary for my career goals. Also, I am excited to experience the honors community. In a prestigious honors program like the one at UGA, there exist unique people with various interests, but with a common attribute: a desire for intellectual conversation. I, too, share this desire for intellectual conversation, and hope that I have the opportunity to join and add to the conversation. These experiences that the honors program provide give me reassurance in my future. The opportunities provided by the honors program will enhance not only my education in machine learning but also my perspective through intellectual

It is important that all forms of communication that originate from the institution must have a same look which will guarantee Marist a brand name. The overall IMC strategy of Marist college involves the development of an identity for the institution whose main objective is to enhance student learning.
It is a tremendous honor to be considered for membership in the most prestigious Honor Society available at Wapato High School. It is even more grand to be able to work towards enrollment in the Society side by side with such an astoundingly gifted group of young men and women. I am only being considered for potential membership in the National Honors Society because I have demonstrated an exemplary academic attitude, and have proven this through the grades I have attained during the years I have spent in the Wapato School District and the fondness amongst my teachers I have achieved. There are also other characteristics besides good scholarship I must fill for membership in the Society, those being services I have done to benefit others in the community, leadership positions I have held, and an original and interesting demonstration of
When candidates are competing for an award, a job, or an honor, they often use the qualities of their character as evidence as to why they deserve it. I certainly understand and believe in the necessity of qualifications; however, I have also always believed that having a plan of what one will do with a certain honor is an integral part of deserving it. That is why this essay is not about my previous accomplishments. This essay is a declaration of my ideas to serve as a representative of Seton Hill University by making the community, state, and country a better place for all.
Being a potential candidate of the National Honor Society is a distinction that I greatly honor. I wish to be a member of the prestigious group for the various benefits to myself, my school, and my community. A member of my family was a former member of the National Honor Society; he has mentioned many positive benefits of being a member and how being a member is beneficial to the community. Due to my exemplary qualities of a National Honor Society member, I am qualified to be part of the chapter.
I endeavor to obtain excellence in my academics; I wish to exemplify scholarship by constantly asking the whys and hows of things. I will not let a bad grade define who I am as a student or who I will become. I also want to take the most challenging classes available, not because it will look good on my college application, but because I genuinely love the concept of learning and discovering new things. Education doesn’t end after high school, so I plan to attend university, eager to attain the knowledge to better understand my world: and expand it.
When I found out I qualified to be a candidate for the NJHS, I knew I had to take this chance. This group is made up of people who depict leadership, character, citizenship, academic success, and service and I would love to join. These characteristics wouldn't just be valuable for a candidate to have, but for everyone to have to exceed in life. If I were to be in the National Junior Honor Society, it would give me an opportunity to ameliorate my future and motivate me to do better.
Liberty University is my dream school because of its solid Biblical foundation, opportunities for students, and excellent educational program. I have found all three of these qualities in my interaction with the university. I truly sense that Liberty wants what is best for its students both inside and outside of the classroom. In short, Liberty is my dream school because of its heart. The Honors Program at Liberty furthers my respect for Liberty by challenging its students and providing them with opportunities to succeed. Being accepted into the Liberty Honors Program would mean many things to me including preparing me for my future and giving me the chance to become a Champion for Christ. It would challenge and provide me with a close-knit Christian community, new growth opportunities, and a balance amidst the wide variety of new experiences. Being accepted into the Honors Program would further enable me to pursue and fulfill God’s purpose for my life.
In order to see how artificial intelligence plays a role on today’s society, I believe it is important to dispel any misconceptions about what artificial intelligence is. Artificial intelligence has been defined many different ways, but the commonality between all of them is that artificial intelligence theory and development of computer systems that are able to perform tasks that would normally require a human intelligence such as decision making, visual recognition, or speech recognition. However, human intelligence is a very ambiguous term. I believe there are three main attributes an artificial intelligence system has that makes it representative of human intelligence (Source 1). The first is problem solving, the ability to look ahead several steps in the decision making process and being able to choose the best solution (Source 1). The second is the representation of knowledge (Source 1). While knowledge is usually gained through experience or education, intelligent agents could very well possibly have a different form of knowledge. Access to the internet, the la...
Although my options are open, I do have genuine interests in two disciplines: psychology and geology. Psychology interests me because I want to be able to understand people. I took a class on psychology in high school that really sparked my interest. I realized that psychology offers
From the natural sciences to the arts, I believe that exposure to multiple different ways of thinking and viewing the world will allow students to develop new perspectives and think with more open minds. As an intended environmental engineering major, the majority of my studies will probably be oriented around the maths and sciences. But with a liberal arts education that taps into all disciplines, I hope to leave Dartmouth with a more holistic view of the world, one I can look at with not just math and science lenses, but also with historical, literary, and art
A global citizen is that who is willing to use its voice and knowledge to make a change. No one would ever be able to make a change in just one day, it is something that takes time and devotion. I’m really interested in diversity and I’m seeking to what is my role is as a world citizen. The fact that I’m searching for an international education is the proof of my desire to establish myself as a global citizen and my interest in the world issues.
Graduation is two weeks away, which for most of us does not seem possible. As we look back at these past four long but fulfilling years, there are some things that we shall never forget. It’s hard to believe that at one point we were little freshmen entering into these doors, with no idea what was in store for us. Four years have passed since that first day, and we have made decisions that will frame our futures. After years of studying, filling out applications, scholarships, and taking tests, we are now thrown into the real world, where there are seldom retakes, second chances are only a memory of yesteryear, and honor codes are the way of life.
My fascination with computers began from early high school when we had introductory computer classes. Further, programming and graphics lessons caught my imagination and soon computers became almost an obsession. This resulted in my choosing Computer Science for undergraduate studies. Artificial Intelligence is the area where I have chosen to set my foot in.
Humans can expand their knowledge to adapt the changing environment. To do that they must “learn”. Learning can be simply defined as the acquisition of knowledge or skills through study, experience, or being taught. Although learning is an easy task for most of the people, to acquire new knowledge or skills from data is too hard and complicated for machines. Moreover, the intelligence level of a machine is directly relevant to its learning capability. The study of machine learning tries to deal with this complicated task. In other words, machine learning is the branch of artificial intelligence that tries to find an answer to this question: how to make computer learn?
My journey as a student has always been focused on the path to college and success. Before I even set foot in kindergarten my mother, a college dropout, always told me that “honor roll wasn’t an option” and that I would be attending college in the future and achieving a degree. Most of the time I made these requirements. Most of the time I was awarded honor roll or had a newly edited list of colleges to attend, but sometimes life got in the way of my dreams of achieving success.
