When you look at the statistics on mortality rates over all mental disorders, statistics showing that Anorexia Nervosa has the highest mortality rate, it would be a reasonable assumption that it would have the highest funding for recovery treatment research. Unfortunately, this is nowhere near the case, and not only do they have the least recorded research, but one of the lowest rates of funding.

Writers are notoriously self-loathing. In the early 1980s, I worked as a junior writer at Time magazine. On Friday nights, as deadlines loomed, you could walk past the writers’ cubicles and see rows of (mostly) men, smoking cigarettes and looking miserable. One writer would collect the files of the magazine’s correspondents, the basis for the story he was writing, lay them out on the corridor floor and stomp on them. I recall an exception to this orgy of self-pity. Roger...

We all know this phrase that was said a long time ago: 'Love your neighbor as yourself'. However, few people have understood the meaning. It is very welcome to love our neighbors, even if our needs are not met. But as you often say in the sentence above, putting yourself in the first place is synonymous with egoism. However, a person who has self-esteem does not have to be selfish. All people are born with a survival instinct that tells...

Research suggest that educators implement techniques like coaching and mentoring to help their students achieve higher levels of efficacy, which link with superior academic performance (Jain, Chaudhary, & Jain, 2016). Moreover, Dimotakis, Mitchell, and Maurer (2017) argued that assessment and feedback are important for the development of self-efficacy, but cautioned that assessment centers often require investing resources that may be hard to find. It is the job of educational leaders to ensure these types of activities take place, but it...

The outline of Abelard’s career is well known, largely because he described so much of it in his famous Historia calamitatum. He was born the son of a knight in Brittany south of the Loire River. He sacrificed his inheritance and the prospect of a military career in order to study philosophy, particularly logic, in France. He provoked bitter quarrels with two of his masters, Roscelin of Compiègne and Guillaume de Champeaux, who represented opposite poles of philosophy in regard...

In the speaker’s vision of death, nature plays a central role. Instead of dealing with abstract entities like God, angels, souls, or Heaven, the speaker focuses on the physical objects that make up the mortal world — think: dirt, rivers, trees. In doing so, the speaker suggests that human beings aren’t all that different from these physical things — that each dead person is “brother to the insensible rock / And to the sluggish clod.” Though this comparison might seem...

The philosopher Allan Bloom once lamented: ‘There is one thing a professor can be absolutely certain of: almost every student entering the university believes, or says he believes, that truth is relative.’ Perhaps Bloom overstated his case, but as a university teacher myself, I think he’s onto something. Do people who proclaim that ‘truth is relative’ or that ‘everyone has their own truth’ really believe this? Even Bloom adds the caveat: ‘…or says he believes’. As anyone with two neurons...

When we learn about the early history of the United States, the issues considered important then might seem largely irrelevant now. Sure, the framers of the Constitution debated the fundamental purpose and scope of government, but they agreed upon a framework that's been used ever since. Are their concerns over matters of economics relevant in our modern, technological society? They certainly are. Consider the disagreements between founding fathers Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson. Hamilton and Jefferson were famous rivals, disagreeing...

In the 2013 article “Preventing School Shootings Starts with Gun Safety at Home,” Richard Aborn made an effort to give society a better insight of how school and accidental home shootings are in fact preventable and more importantly, how they could be prevented with parents and the government simply increasing firearm education and taking precautions of the weapons owned and stashed throughout their homes.

Attribution theory explains these attribution processes, which we use to understand why an event or behavior occurred. To understand the concept of attribution, imagine that a new friend cancels plans to meet up for coffee. Do you assume that something unavoidable came up, or that the friend is a flaky person? In other words, do you assume that the behavior was situational (related to external...

Hardy is primarily a poet, and nowhere does he have more claims for his recognition as a poet in his fiction than in the imaginative use of style. Here the poet is at his best. His poetic genius coupled with the power of employing imaginative words and phrases has made poetry of his prose. The themes which Hardy employs in his novels are again essentially poetic, as the element of sorrow has always been a spur to the imagination. As...

I’ve said before that the Church Fathers are unanimous in their belief in regenerative baptism: that is, they believe that Baptism actually saves us (as 1 Peter 3:21 explicitly says), by causing us to be born again by water and the Spirit; that it actually washes away our sins, and creates in us a clean heart, enabling us to approach God all of which is prophesied by Ezekiel. It’s because of this belief that the Church permits infant baptism: baptism...

Simeon Wright, Emmet Till’s cousin, once wrote “It never occurred to me that Bobo would be killed for whistling at a white woman”. This quote could not be any truer for how Emmett Till faced his murder in Money, Mississippi after playing a prank on a white lady. Till’s story created recognition on the bigotry that was pervasive in the south in 1955, significantly after endeavors across the country to integrate and become equivalent. Till’s Death signified a new symbol...

On May 19th, 1536, a woman’s fate was sealed. Clad in a loose, dark gray gown and a gable headdress, she slowly approached her ineluctable demise.

Accused of adultery, incest, and high treason, she received one last act of mercy from the King: a swift blow from a razor-sharp blade of a French swordsman. That was the end of the story of the...
