Hero And Heroine Research Paper

Hero / Heroine-

According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a hero as “a person admired for achievements and noble qualities d : one who shows great courage” (www.merriam-webster.com, n.d.) and a heroine is a “a woman admired and emulated for her achievements and qualities American heroines such as Eleanor Roosevelt and Rosa Parks remembered as the heroine of the flood” (www.merriam-webster.com). Looking at Liberty University they seem to take an interest in their former students and what they are doing in their life. An example of this would be free agent Rashad Jennings, who some may consider to a hero due to what he has done on and off the field, that Liberty helped to his family to the finals. Liberty, also went on to show, “clips of Jennings’ playing days at Liberty were featured, illustrating how Jennings overcame obstacles in life” (www.liberty.edu, 2017). Liberty also, has an interest in their current students and during this year graduation they had President Donald Trump give the Commencement address.

The two men listed above have accomplished great thing, but how can the receive the label hero. What standard are they held to? For if we were to hold them to the standard of Jesus Christ and if that was the case no one would measure up. This is brought up to make the point that Liberty has hero’s / heroine’s in their hallways every day. From RTOC students to Medical Student’s, they are the unknown hero’s. For they continue to study through the long nights so that one day they can do the task at hand that they have trained / study so hard
