Global engagement provides necessary skills to form a global marketplace, builds understanding and contributes to national security. Global engagement is a very important and necessary to the development of a more cohesive national society that builds understanding and forms lasting bonds and trust.

Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship is the act of creating and capturing new ideas. People who are entrepreneurs build there own businesses from the ground up and run it themselves. Entrepreneurship is a very admirable goal and it is very inspiring. One of the most appealing aspects of entrepreneurship is the ability to be one's own boss. It gives the opportunity to make one's own schedule and build your work around your life. There is even an organization on campus that encourages entrepreneurship and offer start-up for students who present their ideas and give a cohesive plan of action. This is a wonderful opportunity for college students to fulfill their creative goals while not having to jeopardize their own income or schooling. Entrepreneurship is an excellent creative outlet as well as a great business opportunity. You can build your own business that can passed down for generations ensuring the well being of your family for the future.

ASU Libraries

The ASU Libraries are truly indispensable resources. There are eight different libraries on ASU. Five are on the main campus and one for each other campuses. All ASU libraries offer wireless Internet, have study spaces, and valid resources.

At ASU libraries there is access to the Internet if it is on your or their computers. If people are looking to research, ASU libraries offer databases where work is authorized. Many of ASU's libraries focus on different subjects like the Noble library which is subjects around science and engineering. Even though some libraries do focus on specific majors everyone can use each one. Also, ASU Libraries can send materials to other ASU libraries making it easier for students obtain resources.

Now I know how to use the online databases which are used by all ASU libraries. Also, The online databases can be accessed through the ASU websites.

Academic Integrity

Academic Integrity is, as said by Joe bunker, doing acts with honesty and integrity and to respect the rights of others when carrying out all course assignments. At ASU academic integrity is taken very seriously.

Since I was younger, I always knew cheating and copying was bad but I always saw the consequences as a fail on that certain assignment. At ASU, not only do you fail that assignment but also the course. Failing the course is the minimum punishment for academic dishonesty and follows students on their transcripts. A mark is made on transcripts not only saying that you failed the class but also because of academic dishonesty. Usually the penalty is much more than a failure, student who have been academic dishonest can be expelled from ASU. I have learned that even using a paper that has been writing for another class and is used for another class does not follow the code of Academic Integrity. Now that I have learned about academic Integrity I will be sure to follow it thoroughly.

Suceeding at ASU

Succeeding at ASU is a very important goal of mine that I plan to achieve while attending this institution for my undergraduate study. In order for me to accomplish my goal I must first learn what it takes to succeed. Being successful isn’t easy and it takes a lot of hard work and dedication. College isn’t like high school and is a major transition. In college students are responsible for themselves and don’t have anyone to look after them or to tell them how to use their time wisely.

According to Afsaneh Nahavandi; students should develop a good study habit along with good time management skills. Attending all your classes, doing your assignments, and reviewing the materials that are being presented are key points to help students be successful.

Another good tip is developing relationships with your instructors. Ask for help in you don’t understand any of the material or ask where you can receive tutoring. Following these tools will not only help you achieve your goals while attending ASU but also in your career.

Diversity

Diversity is a variety of different people with different opinions, beliefs, ethnic backgrounds, thoughts, gender, groups, etc. At ASU, diversity is shown in every classroom, clubs, hallways and living environments. ASU is where different people, including me, come together to get an education.

ASU has a wide spread of people not only in our nation but around the world. According to Delia Saenz, students come from all of the 50 states and from 141 nations around the world. At ASU you can be sure to find people with different ideas but that’s a good thing. Since people are so different, we all can learn from one another at ASU. People at ASU are lucky to have the advantage of having a roommate who is not from our country or just a classmate with different opinions. Having diversity at a University makes for innovation and globally engages students.

We all must do with President Crow addresses and reach out to the community and help one another. Here at ASU we reach out to the community!
