Auto news on Youtube Mar 29 2018

Dear students, First of all, congratulations on getting into

Brown!

I bet you are all very excited.

The next four years are bound to transform you in many ways, but what you may not expect

is that these changes can happen now, even before you reach campus.

Some students, like Karishma, manifest dietary changes, such as an increased desire for honey,

berries, and a general need to innovate - think of it as the open curriculum for the kitchen.

Though you may get strange looks from the people at your table, remember that you will

continue to transform — so accept and enjoy it!

You see, other students like Elizabeth, report new intellectual obsessions.

Your home may fill up with books about bears, but you should not be too concerned as your

interests are bound to change and develop once in contact with peers and professors

at Brown.

I, myself, came in thinking I was going to study psychoceramics until I decided to become

a behavioral scientist.

As move-in day draws nearer, students such as Lisa experience a strong need to ensure

that their dorm room will remind them of the forest.

The data tells us that 43.27 % of incoming students pursue these decorative choices.

However, our studies have not conclusively determined the reason for this.

Though consuming raw foods is a risk for most people, Brown students develop a special form

of resistance to bacteria found in raw fish.

Therefore, when you start craving salmon for dinner on a regular basis, don't worry about

purchasing sushi-grade, as your body will adapt to support this new diet.

You might notice that, like the books you choose, your internet searches will start

to primarily concern Brown University dorms, caves, and forests near Providence.

The only caves nearby, however, are in Lyman Hall and Granoff – I'm sure you will discover

them soon enough!

Your sleeping habits may change as well.

As move-in day approaches, you will want to surround yourself with bears of all shapes,

sizes, and textures.

It is vital, at this stage, to make sure that there are many plush bears available as some

students have been known to seek out live bears in their surroundings when imitation

bears have been absent.

Safety first!

But dearest student, please remember that whatever changes may come, you and your fellow

cubs need space to grow into bears.

Your bodies and minds will know what to do to prepare.

Enjoy your remaining months at home – and I hope you will choose to take my workshop

titled…

Hampton University Students Take to the Streets Over Campus Conditions - Duration: 10:21.

GERALD CAMPBELL: -In this letter that I have in my pocket.

Everyone here who worked on it, contributed, and it's going to go straight to our president.

Period.

We all came here, we all made the sacrifice, [inaudible].

Because everyone here pays for Hampton.

Right?

We're not going to get a refund, right?

Exactly.

And they're going to phrase this as we're a bunch of rebel students causing a disruption,

causing an inconvenience for all the other students.

That's not true.

EDDIE CONWAY: In the vein of student activists before them, Hampton University students took

to the streets recently.

Students are outraged about the conditions on campus and the sexual assault that they

felt weren't being addressed.

Students took to social media and news outlets to gain verbal attention to the issues.

Joining us today to discuss the Hampton protests is Jarrett Carter, Sr. Jarrett is CEO and

founder of HBCUDigest.com, where you can find extensive coverage and commentary on all HBC

U news from around the country.

Jarrett, thanks for joining me.

JARRETT CARTER, SR: Thank you for having me.

EDDIE CONWAY: OK, what's going on?

Something's been happening since February 21 down at Hampton.

What is it?

JARRETT CARTER, SR: Yeah, there's a number of student protests taking place on campus.

Variety of issues that students are trying to get addressed.

One is Title IX compliance issues.

Another is quality of food service on campus and housing issues, certain deficiencies with

mold and mildew and things like that in rooms.

And the administration has been working to respond to a lot of the students concerns.

They've had a number of public meetings.

The students have also been vocal on social media on expressing their displeasure with

some of the conditions, or the concerns, and their efforts to try to reach out to administration

to work with them to solve them.

So it's a very unique issue for Hampton.

There are a lot of HBCUs that confront these kind of things every year, but it's very rare

for Hampton as an institution and as a student body to be so out front publicly on these

kinds of issues.

EDDIE CONWAY: Well, what is this Title IX, what does it encompass?

JARRETT CARTER, SR: Title IX is a federal statute that requires certain reporting and

certain responsibilities that campuses have to students to prevent and process sexual

assault complaints, discrimination complaints.

And it's a big issue in higher education at large, because a lot of campuses are being

confronted with hard realities about how much they do or don't do to assist students who

say they've been the victim of a sexual assault or a victim of gender discrimination.

At Hampton this is more on a student's complaint about a false or mishandled incident of a

sexual assault claim.

Now, this was something that wasn't formally reported to the institution, that a number

of outlets have reported that.

But it speaks to a culture of specifically women not being willing to tolerate institutions

or cultures that would, that would seek to stifle recording of sexual assault, sexual

harassment, gender harassment or gender discrimination, and just making sure that the school is accountable.

And that's something that the school, on its part, has said, you know, we, we've always

done a good job, we're going to continue to try to make it better, for all students to

feel welcome and safe on campus.

EDDIE CONWAY: Well, I understand part of that Title IX also involves orientation.

I understand the students are saying they're not being properly orientated to what might

be consent or a violation of consent.

JARRETT CARTER, SR: Yeah, that's something that that's been a frequent complaint for

a lot of HBC students and a lot of students, period, at college and universities, black

or white.

And the truth of the matter is that the university can can dedicate resources in class and outside

of class to letting students know the definition of consent, what rises to the level of a sexual

assault, what other venues through which you can report it.

What you expect when you do report it, and what is the responsibility of the school to

make sure it's processed and prosecuted to the fullest extent of campus student student

governance laws, and also the laws of individual jurisdictions.

EDDIE CONWAY: I saw some pictures that look like there was mold that had been years old.

Why is that happening?

JARRETT CARTER, SR: I mean, it is hard to dictate if, you know, if a picture is what

it claims to be.

A lot of times you can get pages off the Internet.

But let's assume that the pictures that were being published online were accurate and depicted

what was currently going on in Hampton.

It's something that the students that, if they had reported it, then I'm sure the university

is taking steps to to remediate and remove.

It's not something that is impossible to happen or something you could prohibit.

Hampton, if you've ever been down there, is a school that's surrounded by water on three

sides.

So there's always going to be moisture in the air.

There's always going to be an issue with water potentially collecting in residence halls

and classrooms.

But when you look at the reporting and some of the measures that Hampton has published

to say, here is how we're going to help and work with the students and respond to these

things, they're talking about, you know, the way that you can report mold.

What, the steps that are taken to remediate it, and where students can be placed if more

extensive work needs to be done.

EDDIE CONWAY: OK.

I also noticed that there's some, some of the complaints covered the food in which,

the way it was prepared or served, or so on.

What's the situation with the food there?

JARRETT CARTER, SR: You know, when you're when you're serving hundreds and potentially

thousands of students, sometimes there can be an issue with the food.

That's not, you know, neglect on the part of the staff, or it's not intent on the part

of the university to serve low-quality food.

Sometimes that just happens in mass production.

But again, Hampton has, you know, to its credit, assembled a task force of students, student

government association, working with fraternities and sororities and other student organizations

on campus to address, hey, how can we make the food better?

But at the end of the day what is most important to underscore is that Hampton students get

a lot of credit because in their effort to get these things corrected, they're doing

it the right way.

They're not cussing out administrators and putting them on full blast, and saying I don't

want to go to Hampton, and nobody come here.

They're still taking a lot of pride in their institution.

They're still just saying, you know, let's make the institution better.

And on the other side the administration's doing the same thing.

They're applauding these students for using their constitutional rights to get their concerns

out there, taking the proper channels to speak with the president and vice presidents and

associated managers in each of these divisions.

So I think it's something that in short order is going to get fixed.

But I would say that it is something that a lot of campuses, black and white, are going

to have to be concerned about.

In a lot of ways it's a repeat of the civil rights movement.

We had a lot of students that were going off campus to protest injustice in the streets.

And once that work was done or seeming done, they came back to protest injustice that seemed

to be taken place on campus.

So you know, the more things change the more they stay the same.

And this appears to be a situation where Hampton just happens to be in the news this week for

something that we've seen playing out over years.

EDDIE CONWAY: And I'm sure this is probably not something that the university administration

can take care of, but I notice one of the complaints was that it seemed like the students

were bored to death because there's nothing to do on off class hours.

Is that a concern there also?

JARRETT CARTER, SR: Yeah, I mean, all of these things are legitimate concerns, and all of

these things are legitimately being addressed by the administration.

But on the subject of student activities, you know, that's one of those areas where

the students have to take a lot of responsibility for the latitude they have in activities and

in different programs and events.

You can't have a situation where you compromise campus security, where you compromise student

safety, because you want to have fun.

But I think that Hampton is the kind of atmosphere and the kind of university culture where the

students and the administration have the same concept.

We want Hampton to be the best the best it can be.

So you know, after we run the course of emotion and really expressing our views, they're going

to work together and make sure all these things run the right way so not only that they can

enjoy themselves there on campus today, but future Hamptonians will be able to enjoy the

campus as well.

EDDIE CONWAY: So as the editor, in your opinion would you say that this stuff is being resolved

and the students are satisfied with the direction in which the administration is addressing

it?

JARRETT CARTER, SR: I think time will tell.

Some students are satisfied that the administration is responding in kind.

We've seen video of the town hall meeting.

It's spring break time for a lot of kids and a lot of campuses.

I think you're going to have to come back when when classes resume and see, you know,

how fast or how quickly the students are receiving some of these changes.

If they're not happy they're going to keep making noise about it, as well they should

have the right to do so.

But they also should give the administration every opportunity to address individual and

collective concerns.

So it can't be a thing where one person has one issue, and that becomes emblematic of

the whole campus.

They have to have every opportunity to say how can we fix an individual issue, and how

can we fix those issues that have affected a lot of people.

And like I said, I think Hampton is the kind of school that has the kind of academic rigor,

the kind of culture, the kind of leadership that's going to be able to get that done and

be a model for other HBCs around the country.

EDDIE CONWAY: OK, Jarrett, thanks for joining me and giving us that update.

JARRETT CARTER, SR: Appreciate it.

Honored to be on with you.

EDDIE CONWAY: OK.

And thanks for joining the Real News.

Ghent University - LeanShips - Duration: 4:17.

Most marine propulsion runs on diesel or heavy fuel oil,

causing greenhouse gas, Nox and soot emissions.

As the sector will grow in the coming decades,

new legislation pushes the industry to innovate

and apply environmentally friendly technologies.

LeanShips which stands for Low Energy and Near to Zero emission Ships

is an European innovation project.

In which 42 partners

from various EU members states are involved.

The collective goal of all partners

is to put innovations into practice

by means of seven demonstrator cases.

We have dedicated teams

made up of equipment manufacturers,

shipyards, ship owners and research institutions,

all working hard together

to make the technologies more mature

and to demonstrate feasibility

to ensure market uptake.

One of the project teams aims

to demonstrate the potential of methanol

as an alternative marine fuel.

A viable solution is the introduction

of methanol as a marine fuel.

As one of the most widely shipped chemicals in the world,

methanol is readily available through existing

global terminal infrastructure.

In the years before submitting our project proposal

to the European Commission,

we did an extensive analysis

of potential alternative fuels.

And to assess these fuels,

we laid down three ground rules.

First was sustainability,

can the fuel be produced in a sustainable way?

So make use of an infinite energy supply

and a closed cycle of resources.

Secondly, scalability.

Can we scale up the fuels production?

Meaning, does it make use of abundantly available

and therefor cheap resources?

And third, is it sufficiently compact?

So does it offer a high enough energy density?

Judged by these three criteria,

methanol came out on top.

Methanol is a clean-burning fuel with lower emissions

and meets increasingly stringent environmental fuel regulations.

As a liquid fuel,

only minor modifications

are needed for current storage and bunkering infrastructure

to enable methanol marine fueling in major port facilities

both easily and cost effectively.

Methanol is primarily made from natural gas

But can also been made from a range of

renewable and low carbon sources

which really makes it an ideal pathway to a sustainable future.

At Ghent University

a Volvo Penta D7

has been converted to dual fuel operation.

Power output and emissions

will be measured from the dual fuel operation

and diesel-only operation.

In this way,

Leanships will be able to draw very concrete conclusions

on the advantages of this promising technology.

The Volvo Penta engine has been instrumented with sensors

and with a new methanol fuel supply system

that is suitable to the corrosive properties of methanol.

The operational principle of the dual fuel approach

is based on port fuel injection of methanol

and a pilot diesel direct injection

that actually ignites the methanol-air mixture.

In doing so,

a substantial part of the original diesel consumption

will be replaced by methanol.

DEME invests yearly

in its vessel portofolio.

Understanding the latest,

state of the art technologies

is key to make the correct investment decisions.

Abeking & Rasmussen

sees daily that market interest in sustainable vessels is increasing.

Together with LeanShips,

Abeking & Rasmussen believes that it makes a major contribution

towards sustainable shipping.

The Bachelor's/Semicha Program at Yeshiva University - Duration: 4:59.

Hi. I'm Tanchum Cohen. I'm here at YU this evening with Noah, Yehoshua and Barak

to spend a couple of minutes talking with you about the BA/Semicha Program

and the unique opportunities that it can offer you.

Fellows do you want to introduce yourselves?

My name is Yehoshua Szafranski and I'm from New Jersey

and I went to Yeshivas Kerem BeYavneh and I'm currently in Rav Twersky's shiur.

Hi. I'm Barak Bader, originally from Alabama, and I went to Derech Ohr Somayach,

and I'm in Rav Cohen's shiur.

Hi. My name's Noah Shapiro. I'm from the Upper West Side in Manhattan.

I went to Yeshivat Shaalvim for two years. I'm currently in Rav Rosensweig's shiur,

my third year of the BA/Semicha program and am currently an RA,

a resident advisor, on campus.

In many ways, the core of the BA/Semicha program is an opportunity

to do college over 4 years instead of 3 and enable more consistent learning

over the course of those four years.

Any of you guys wants to speak about the way in which that's been a game changer for you?

You're not leaving Yeshiva in Israel. You're able to carry Yeshiva, you're able to live in yeshiva,

this is yeshiva; where you have three sedarim a day, you're able to pound shas,

you're able to really learn halakhah with tremendous personalities

and you're able to develop your knowledge and really master that.

You're able to maximize your Torah learning,

you 're able to maximize your secular studies learning,

you're able to do it also within the same timeframe as anybody else who'd want to do semicha

and you're not paying for your fourth year of college.

You're only paying for three years of college.

So, you have the chance to be in yeshiva for four years,

do college more gradually, have an afternoon seder,

and pay nothing extra for the opportunity to be here for that fourth year.

We also have the benefit of having a whole section of the Beis Medrash to ourselves.

There's a whole group of people who are learning the same topic, we go back with each other,

speak in learning. We have Rav Cohen there – we can ask him questions.

Also - we've had the opportunity to go through a helek of mishnah berurah a year,

which has been really cool so over the course of the six years

you'll be able to be mesayem the entire mishnah berurah.

Do you fellows want to speak about some of the things

that stand out to you uniquely about the BA/Semicha program?

I think it's amazing that there's a specific psychology track

that is directly beneficial to the BA/Semicha program.

It is catered directly to our schedules, so we always get an afternoon seder,

and it literally gives us the ability to develop the skills for the fields that we need to go in.

I'm hoping to go into chinuch. It's a psychology degree, but it has a focus in the community,

a focus in dealing with people, so it's much more practical than clinical psychology.

Is this program really meant only for fellows who are planning on a career in klei kodesh?

It's so nice to see how we have such a diverse group

and people are really majoring in different things and are focusing on different things:

from math to computer science to philosophy, obviously the psychology major.

People majoring in all these different types of things.

This program within the yeshiva definitely positions you,

if you are interested in going into chinuch or rabbanus,

and it definitely allows you to maximize your Torah learning,

but by no means does it actually seal you in.

It doesn't say that you have to go into chinuch or rabbanus.

They can learn afternoon seder and even if they decide not to pursue their semicha studies further,

they still had the opportunity to maximize their Torah studies

while they were in their four years of college, which is something that is very unique to the program.

Noah do you want to speak about some of the hashkaha, machsahavah opportunities?

We have a Chabura with Rav Moshe Weinberger every couple of weeks

where we have an open question-answer session with him.

We have a da'as tefillah chabura once a week with Rav Cohen, which is unbelievable.

We have Rav Sobolofsky, as you mentioned,

who gives a chabura once a week on a sugya that we did in mishnah berurah that week.

Really unbelievably great figures in an intimate small environment

and have a more person interaction with them.

A fellow sits down with you, he's shana aleph, shanh bet, he's learning in Eretz Israel,

he's getting ready to come and continue learning in yeshiva in America

and he's thinking about his trajectory,

considering whether or not to pursue the BA/Semicha program.

What advice would you give him?

I think the six-years Semicha program is really an incredible opportunity

for anyone who's looking to maximize their Torah Studies in their undergraduate years,

but it's also geared towards people

who are specifically looking to do chinuch and rabbanus in the future.

If he wants, and I think he should, this program gives us a Shanah Gimmel –

this truly is Yeshiva here in America.

Noah, Yehoshua, Barak - I want to thank you so much for sitting down with me tonight

and taking the time to share some of your perspectives on the BA/Semicha program,

so you can use them in making your own decisions about next year and beyond.

Cheongju University Alumni Speak Up Against Criticism Towards Victims - Duration: 1:16.

Cheongju University Alumni Speak Up Against Criticism Towards Victims Of Jo Min Ki's Sexual Harassment

Alumni of Cheongju University, where the late actor Jo Min Ki was a professor at, expressed intent to take legal action against the people who are criticizing the victims who spoke up about his sexual harassment.

The alumni stated, The only reason the victims revealed their scars of sexual harassment to the world was in hopes to prevent it from happening again.

However, they are currently receiving a second round of attacks from social media, including a constant stream of comments on social networking site postings and private messages through Facebook accounts. Soompi. Display. News. English. 300x250. Mobile. English. 300x250. ATF.

The alumni talked about the danger of secondary attacks and explained, By passing the blame onto the victim, you will cover up the truth and obscure the essence of the incident.

Criticizing and attacking victims can fall under defamation and contempt, and can be considered a crime committed under the laws regarding promotion of information, communication network use, and protection of information..

The alumni revealed plans to take firm legal action against those who made the victims experience a second round of trauma from such actions.

They added, All members of society must be collectively responsible for creating a safe college environment from sexual violence. Cheongju National Universitys theater group against sexual violence will not give up its will to reveal the true story of sexual violence within the school in order to prevent students from becoming victims..

Previously, Jo Min Ki was accused of sexual harassment by multiple individuals. He later apologized and was being investigated prior to his death.

Immigrant Journeys at the University of Memphis - Duration: 22:00.

I am Dr. Elena Delavega.

I am an associate professor of social work at the University of Memphis, and I am also

the associate director of the Benjamin L. Hooks Institute for Social Change.

I was born and raised in Mexico City.

One of the things that was different about Mexico in the seventy's was that we did not

recognize things things such as attention deficit disorder.

I have attention deficit disorder.

I was not diagnosed until I was much older in the United States.

My father tried to have a business in Mexico way back in the day, and there were a lot

of challenges at some point during my childhood he decided that he wanted to immigrate to

the United States.

It took a very long time for him to finally have the guts to come here.

So, he moved in 1985 we up and left.

It was very traumatic for me because at that time I was doing quite well in high school,

and my mother came to us when they and she said we are moving to the United States next

week.

I was in shock it was was quite a disruption to my life.

I cried and I said I do not want to go, but of course that did not help me.

So I ended up a week later in Houston, Texas in a new school where I did not know anybody

I did not speak English.

People spoke to me and I just looked them, and then you respond how immigrants respond

when you are spoken to and you do not understand the language.

So, I just smile and said\'85 And I had no idea what had been said to me.

I am smart though, and I was able to learn English very quickly.

In fact, six months after we had moved to the United States I knew enough English to

go into regular classes.

I graduated from high school with a G.P.A. of 3.7 even though I had not known English

when I arrived.

However, as it often happens for immigrants I was not able to go to college.

It took me a very long time to be able to go to college we just did not have the money,

and I had to work to help my parents.

It was not until after I had already had my child at age 35 that I had the opportunity

to go back to college, and to get my education and for me that was one of the best things

that ever happened to me.

In fact, they happiest day of my life was the day I got my bachelor's degree.

What fears and challenges I had and my family had when we came to this country, well, one

of the most difficult things was of course not being able to speak English.

I did not know how to drive either.

That was very scary because I had never needed to learn to drive.

I was afraid of immigration officers.

I have always been afraid of immigration officers.

They have so much power.

They have all the power in the world in their hands.

They can make or break your life by the stroke of a pen and there is nothing you can do about

it.

I sleep with my passport.

I have it close to my heart.

It is really important to me.

I do not think American cities sense or people born here understand how very precious their

citizenship is.

How very precious their rights are.

\ How very precious their right to vote is.

If you come from such countries as Mexico, India, Mainland China, or the Philippines

there can be a wait of fourteen, twenty, twenty seven years to be even be eligible for a VISA.

So, when we ask immigrants, \'93Oh why did you get your citizenship right away?

Why do not you just apply?\'94 Well, because you cannot.

The load is harsh and it is very difficult and it is becoming harsher.

Those experiences shaped my research interest and also my passion for social justice.

Because I know what it is to try to do the best you can, to try to work as hard as you

possibly can and the system is just stacked against you in such a way that you are not

going to make it.

But I got my American citizenship recently.

I just took the oath of allegiance to the United States.

It was a moment of great pride for me.\ My name is Sumeiah Altareb.

I am a freshman at the University of Memphis.

I am majoring in electrical engineering, and I am originally form Yemen.

I am Sarah Altareb.

I am a physiology major, senior year at University of Memphis.

We came with our family.

It was not all at once.

First, my dad used to work here and he would visit us in Yemen every other year.

And then one time he could not come back because the situation in Yemen was complicated so

my sister and my mom went to visit him here and then we came.

It was more of individual fears or challenges.

Because when we came here we did not speak a lot of English.

It was really basic level, and that accent and culture and language that was a huge barrier

in school and outside of school.

You also have the fear of not being accepted in this society because we look different

and were from a different place.

We have different religion.

First we were thinking that language would be so hard.

Second, the culture was very different than we would have thought, and the way people

viewed was different too.

I used to be really afraid of any of any communication with people.

I think I have improved a lot and I already have some friends, and I can communicate with

people and feel comfortable, but and in the University of Memphis I felt a lot more comfortable

with the diversity.

It has been a really good experience here.

Whenever I see more girls that are wearing her hijab in the in the hallway or on campus.

It feels good and I feel like I am not you know a stranger.

People are different.

The friendship with them is actually I think is more valuable because you have different

experiences, and you learn from each other.

the opportunities that are available here are not are not available in my country, and

also I love that I can say what I want to say and I can always express my opinion.

It is not like there is no one can tell me you cannot say that.

You have to shut up or something because sometimes it happened out in my country.

We were not able to express ourselves.

I am nostalgic most of the time about Yemen, but memories from my childhood but when it

comes to here I do like the education.

I like how much there is diversity.

Because back home they all look the same pretty much.

Spoke the same.

Maybe even thought the same way.

But here it is like a whole new world and there is so many perspectives it is very valuable

I think to growing up to have that experience.

I am taking pre-med classes and I am planning to go to optometry school.

My hope is to become a eye doctor.

My hope is that I can be something or someone who can help change the conditions right now.

Diversity is very valuable, and you have to find a way to preserve that.

Because for me diversity has been one of the main things that that affects my thinking

and the way I approach problems and stuff.

For Americans, find a way to preserve and show that value of diversity.

I would like to tell the students in the campus to try to make friendship with any students

who are different from them because it is exciting it is fun, and you get to learn about

others.

I am Maria Naranjo.

I am a business information and technology and Mathematical Sciences double major.

I am originally from Rincon Grande, Mexico.

My family came here when I was about four or five years old.

I am from a really small town in Mexico and basically everyone does either farming or

they work in factories and what people make in a day is not sufficient to have a good

life.

So, when my dad heard about an opportunity to come to the U.S. to get a job here he took

it.

Because, even like having minimum wage work here was better than working in Mexico, and

at that point he already had a green card and it was not until I was about five years

old that we were able to get permanent residency, but it was difficult because my dad left as

soon as my sister was born and he would only come visit us maybe once a year for a couple

of days.

So, we were by ourselves and I remember like when I was little, and he would come visit

us I would not even recognize him.

So, he decided to bring this here for a better opportunity I still remember when I started

kindergarten here I was terrified because I absolutely understood not one word that

was said.

I had no idea what my teachers would tell me to do I could not talk to any of the other

students.

But because I was so young I was able to pick up English pretty fast so at least I was a

plus.

When I came here to the U.S. my parents wanted me to get an education.

That was one of their primary concerns, and that has always been my mindset that I was

going to come here I was going to finish school.

I was going to go to college.

I was going to get a good career, because ultimately I want to get a good job so that

I can help my parents and help support them and make them not so stressed about money

one day.

Well since I am a version aeration student my focus has been on finishing college, and

it is difficult because I am a first generation student to know what I am supposed to do,

and even like when I was going to apply to colleges I did not know the process I did

not know what I should do.

I did not know what jobs were available.

I did not know what I should choose as my future career.

It is really discouraging to see how people see immigrants and to see how they view us

makes me sad because they do not understand.

They think it is easy for immigrants to just come here, but it is not they do not understand.

My name is Fabiola Rivera.

I am a Freshman here at the University of Memphis.

My major is international business and I sm a first generation immigrant from Mexico.

My family immigrated here for work opportunities, and more importantly for me and my siblings

education.

I immigrated here when I was three years, old almost four, but we have gone back to

Mexico every summer sense.

So, it is still a really big part of me.

I think the biggest challenge me and my family have faced is definitely assimilating to the

culture here, getting comfortable.

Learning the language is deafening the hardest thing for my parents, and it was hard for

them to support us and help us in school when they themselves had very little schooling.

While they still cannot help us out with school but they support us with anything we need

financially.

Emotional support is always there, and honestly the biggest thing they have done for us is

definitely become citizens.

Making me and my siblings automatic U.S. citizens.

I did not understand exactly, but now being here in college and seeing that nothing and

no one can stop me and that I have so many opportunities that so many people just do

not.

So, to me that moment is the turning point I think, My experience at the University of

Memphis has been great so far.

I have had so much support from everybody I have talked to everybody have come across.

I am helping organize this event, this particular panel because it is such a big part of my

history and who I am.

I am am immigrant I had to learn the language.

I had to learn the culture.

I had to learn how to be American.

I had to do all that and so a lot of people do not understand the struggles of immigrants,

and how much they have to fight to be seen as American.

One of the biggest things I think I want everybody to get from this video is we have have not

all had that chance to be ourselves because we hide just so we can let others feel comfortable

with us.

You know we put on that whole facade that we are just like you, and we are not, not

all the time.

We have our own flavors, our own cultures, our own languages, that we would love to show

everybody but it is scary when people do not readily accept what we have to offer.

My name is Monica Casarin, and I am a freshman.

I am a Health Studies Health Science Concentration major, and I am a first generation immigrant.

My parents came here supporting trying to get a better living, better life, trying to

get out of the realms of Mexico to try to achieve their dream of me having a better

future and a better education.

It is a blessing that now they are very comfortable we are settled in, but the only problem is

me being a DACA student and not having the full eligibility of a full citizen student,

and being a DACA student I feel is one of the biggest accomplishments and I am proud

of my parents for coming over here because if it was not for them I would not see all

the possible possibilities and I would not even probably not even see that I would love

to be in the health care field and just join the possible limitless research that would

be taking place here in the United States.

So I am very excited to be here and I am very blessed and proud that my parents decided

to come here.

When I was one year old so I am from Memphis, Tennessee and I am a first generation student.

I always thought college was a necessity to be successful in life, but as I came down

the realms back when I was a senior in high school.

I saw that it may have been limited to me, but now I see it as an opportunity to go through

higher achievement and to get to your ultimate goal.

The University of Memphis has been a great experience for me.

I absolutely love the faculty, the staff, the environment, I feel so comfortable here

it is almost as if it is my second home.

And I am just very blessed to be here because if it was not for the Opportunity Scholarship

which I am an opportunity scholar.

I would not be here, and I am just very thankful for the Equal Chance of Education for funding

this scholarship.

With all this going on it does get me emotional.

It does get me down, because sometimes I feel like I am hindered from my own success.

Because of me not being born here I am from here, but I was not born here.

We do not get any government funded money for college so therefore when I saw my friends

applying for the Hope Scholarship, Lottery and other government scholarships University

of Memphis, me getting scholarships, federal aid FASFA.

I am not able to receive any of that.

People did not know I was a decade student.

I was just Monica Casarin and graduated from high school top ten percent of my class until

I come to college Monica Casarin an opportunity scholarship freshman and they are all just

so shocked because I did not want to be seen as a DACA a student, but now I feel like it

is more of an achievement than an obstacle.

Immigrants are not here to take your jobs.

We work the same way you work.

We just know the obstacles that we face we are just here to make a living for ourselves

as much as you are.

We just want to be a part of the U.S.

We want to work.

We want to help this country grow.

I mean it is our country as well.

It is not just limited to certain people.

I mean it is the country of immigrants so why treat immigrants such in such alienation.

My name is Diana Sanchez.

I am a freshman and my major is Social Work with the minor Spanish.

My mom she is from Mexico.

She is from Morelos and I am from Morelos Cuernavaca.

My dad, well he is my step dad.

My mom she migrated when I was just nine months old.

My dad, my biological dad, he was already here.

My parents split up, and then my stepdad he came around when he was like nineteen years

old.

It was so hard at first my mom she mainly were saying care of me.

We stayed with some family members and then she was trying to get jobs and it was very

difficult for her because she really did not know a lot English.

Like the only thing she knew was like taking care of me, and I was her like her main priority.

She would go and help my uncle clean like apartments, because he was like the owner

of them.

There is like a really lot of barriers because she really did not know a lot of English.

I am very thankful I mean because like without her, without both of my parents actually like

I would not be in the university right now.

I know like they have had a lot of stress, and a lot of like the situations that were

just like sometimes it feels like, impossible, getting out of it.

But I mean, I guess, they just figured it out themselves.

I remember this, I was like sitting on but I was like I was upset about like our financial

situation.

I mean, I want to say that I was embarrassed of it, because I would see the other kids

just you know with their new shoes, or like new markers and like you know like typical

stuff that children would be jealous of.

And then my dad he sat me down and he told me that their goal was to have our future

better than theirs.

My dad he was raised between a war.

So, he would see dead people.

He would see just like like kids just without their parents, because like you know there

they are separated.

They are helping me like you know get further my education more than they ever did.

My dad he did not finish middle school.

My mom she did not finish middle school.

So like them thinking that I am growing more like makes them like feel proud of what they

have done, and I am proud of them because they got me to this point.

It was always been my dream like to attend college to you know just like help my parents

when I would grow up.

I would have like this is this job, that I would love, that I would you know be passionate

about, and with that like my parents would not have to work anymore.

I would be like financially stable enough for them to like be part of my life, and not

struggle as much as they did when I was growing up.

I have had people call me wetback.

They just, I mean, It is hard because a lot of people do not.

I\'92m sorry.

It is hard because a lot of people do not notice that you know those words are just

going to stick with us especially me I mean I am not a very confident person.

And you know I am not and I am getting back at it because you know whatever they say it

is not going to affect me and more.

Like you know.

I am not going to be whatever they are going to say I am.

You know if they just want to go ahead and call me that I mean that is part of my culture.

Like you know if I am a wetback I mean I might be proud of it, because my parents taught

me you know and just ignore them it is not that important.

As coming forward, you know, into doing this is just you know like a really big step for

us because we can tell people, you know, like this is what is happening this is how we are

doing, this is how we are going to change it.

Business Aviation Connects the University of Texas System - Duration: 1:06.

Our aircraft is utilized to travel to all of our 14 institutions around the state of Texas.

There are times that we'll have people from five different departments utilizing one airplane to get there.

We have an online flight calendar in our University of Texas system,

so I can see the mission, where it's going, the passengers

and I also see the purpose of the mission.

If our plane is not available, or if our plane is flying,

I coordinate all of the rest of that with TxDOT

and make sure that they have a plane that we can utilize.

And it's maintained right here. They look out for us. They take care of this airplane.

We're proud to have them and fortunate to have them look after our equipment.

We've always been dedicated to safety and security.

The whole time we've had a flight operation, but now we've enhanced that.

There are a lot of rules that we have self-imposed

that are very similar to Part 135 to add to safety: crew endurance, runway lengths.

Our crew – the University of Texas aviation crew – they got this.
