Censorship In School Is Not Right

6 pages in length. To be told what is permissible reading material and what is not is a direct violation of the First Amendment of the Constitution. Yet all across the country, school library shelves are being stripped of books that certain individuals and groups deem as unacceptable. Censorship is alive and well in the United States; its ripple effect on America's students is often as damaging as reading one of many so-called controversial books. The writer reveals why censorship in today's schools is both a violation of First Amendment rights, as well as a ploy for radicals and liberals alike to control the minds of our children.

Cheerleaders and Dancers
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page paper comparing and contrasting some of the actions of dancers and cheerleaders, written from the perspective that cheerleaders are inferior in every respect. Most larger cheerleading squads interject an interlude of something they call dance into their routines, but the definition of this dance is that it is different in form from throwing friends into the air and then jumping up and down. The cheerleader’s dance is evidence that the language needs at least one more word. Meeting attendees can table an issue or they can leave items on a table as they leave a room. There is as much similarity in those actions as there is in the dance of a dancer and that of a cheerleader. No sources.
