(YCS photo by Patti Stagner) Most Popular College Majors than a luxury. * College may open up opportunities for internships, which offer hands-on experience in particular fields. * College can help develop social skills that are a benefit in and out of the workplace. * Generally college graduates earn higher salaries than those who only have a high school diploma. When students go on to college, there are some majors that prove more popular than others. But the most popular makers don’t always ensure the best-paying or most rewarding jobs. According to CareerBuilder.com, here are the more popular college majors and what they generally pay in salary. * Biology: A biology degree is often the first step in a career in medicine. Biologists may specialize in biochemistry and pharmaceuticals, which may offer careers that pay a little more. Biology majors can expect to earn between $39,000 to $45,000. * Business Administration: These graduates are often in the right path for careers in real estate and infrastructure of big companies. These grads often go on to get MBAs and eventually become executives, some even Thousands of high schoolers will be graduating in a few weeks and many will be going on to college in the fall, a decision that may have been difficult to make. When pondering their futures, high schoolers may wonder whether college is necessary and a smart choice for success. Although every student is different and there are scenarios that can affect anyone’s future, the decision to attend college is generally beneficial. It often opens up doors and opportunities in the workplace that a high school diploma alone cannot. Here are some things to consider: * Ours is a global economy with many job applicants being pooled from all over the world. A higher education becomes a necessity rather UAH Graduation Is Rescheduled by Cindy Mitchell The University of Alabama Huntsville graduation has been rescheduled for an undecided August date at Spragins Hall.

(YCS photo by Patti Stagner) Good Gift Ideas For Your College-Bound Graduates Graduation season is right around the corner and scores of high schoolers are preparing to leave the nest for the first time. Parents of high school seniors often want to find a gift that both symbolizes the significance of graduation and proves useful in the fall when kids take their first step onto a college campus. Though most high school kids would love a new car for graduation, such a gift is not within reach for most parents nor is it practical, as many colleges don’t allow incoming freshmen to have cars on campus. While they might not be a new car, the following gifts can put a smile on a new grad’s face and prove useful at college, too. * Gaming console: Gamers may love to pack the latest gaming console among their belongings when they head off to college this fall.

(YCS photo by Patti Stagner) Though parents might want their kids hitting the books instead of playing video games, a gaming console can provide a welcome respite for college kids stressing out over their studies. In addition, gaming consoles can be great ice-breakers, providing the avenue by which incoming freshmen can meet and befriend their fellow dorm dwellers. Some interactive gaming consoles, including the Nintendo Wii, can even help freshmen fight off the infamous “Freshman 15,” by encouraging physically active gaming. * Television: Like gaming consoles, new televisions make great ice-breakers at college. Chances are, your favorite high schooler has grown accustomed to Mom and Dad’s home theater system. While kids likely won’t be able to fit such a system in their dorm room, a flatscreen TV can fit into any dorm room and give freshmen a little home away from home. * Computer: Today’s computers are more affordable than ever, and every incoming freshman can make good use of a new computer. When shopping, keep laptop computers in mind, as kids can take laptops along with them to class and study groups. If grads already have a new or relatively new computer, consider upgrading the computer’s accessories. For example, a new set of computer speakers can increase a computer’s functionality and might even serve as a less bulky home theater system. * Money: Though it’s not incredibly personal, money is a gift no college-bound recent graduate will turn down. Kids are going to need money more than ever before while they’re at college, where they’ll need to N A S H V I L L E ( M a y 20 , 2011) – Lipscomb University’s Institute for Conflict Management (ICM) is expanding to meet the needs of busy professionals by offering its unique master’s degree in an online format beginning in September, announced Steve Joiner, managing director of the institute.

Here are some ideas to consider when drafting a valedictorian speech. * Be short and to the point. Chances are there will be a number of different speakers on commencement day. Attendees will appreciate brevity. * Use a current point of reference, such as acknowledging something making headlines or a favorite celebrity, as a way to break the ice. Be sincere and try to inject some humor into the speech. As a speaker you can refer to this initial quote or mention at the summary of the speech as well. * Talk about what the school has provided for you and favorite moments throughout the last few years. Then open up the speech about how friends and fellow graduates made the experiences even more poignant. * Be sure to thank teachers and mentors who played a role in your success. Feel free to call out a special person who went above and beyond to help make you the person you are today. * Praise fellow classmates and their accomplishments. * Talk about plans for the future and refer to how the education provided offers a stable basis for jumping off into jobs and future projects. * Thank your audience for their time. * It’s a good idea to do a few practice runs of the speech and ask for opinions from fellow classmates. Congratulations, Use their advice on making changes or what points can use a little more tweaking. * Get a good night’s rest prior to the graduation ceremony and eat a meal so that you are energized and ready to our special graduate, Shelby Gooding!

Pomp and Circumstance Shelby Gooding from the owners and employees of COLLINS SALES Cedar Hill and Gatlin Road - Ardmore, Alabama 256/423-3638 Mon.-Sat. 9:00-5:00 It’s nearly impossible to attend a graduation ceremony and not hear the processional, “Pomp and Circumstance.” The march has become a graduation staple, but the tune was actually written for a different purpose. Sir Edward Elgar is the Congratulations Class of 2011! May your education and experience as a student serve you well in your career and your future. We wish you the best! composer behind “Pomp and Circumstance,” which was named after a line from William Shakespeare’s “Othello.” Sir Edward composed the song in 1901, and the march was intended for the coronation of King Edward VII. When Elgar received an honorary doctorate from Yale University in 1905, the march was played in his honor as a recessional. Once Yale used the march, other universities began to play the march as well. Eventually it became the trendy thing to do and “Pomp and Circumstance” became forever ingrained in graduation custom. Today it is hard to imagine a commencement ceremony without the famed processional and the requisite cap, tassel and gown. Did you know this? According to a 2010 study conducted by researchers at the Sleep and Neuroimaging Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley, a midday nap might just make you smarter. The study was conducted with the help of 39 college students, each of whom was asked to learn a series of new names and faces at noon and match the faces a few minutes later. The same test was then performed at 6 p.m. that same day. A group of the participants who took a nap at 2 p.m. performed better than those students who did not nap. The latter group, in fact, had a significant decline in memory test scores. Researchers credit the nap with TURN TO PAGE C-13 Congratulations & Good Luck, Mackenzie! We are very proud of you!

(YCS photo by Patti Stagner) Graduation Garb, Colors An Historical Tradition The graduation cap and gown is a tradition dating back to the 12th and 13th centuries. The Committee on Academic Costumes and Ceremonies adopted rules regarding style of dress and academic discipline colors that would signify areas of study and the degree that was received in America. European standards may differ. While the standard color for academic gowns is black, many colleges and universities are known to adopt the school colors. Trimming and tassel colors may coordinate to the specifications regarding academic degrees. Individuals receiving a Bachelor’s degree will have a gown with pointed sleeves.

When a person naps, that decline seems to be reversed.

In general, it is in good taste for women to wear a conservative dress or a skirted suit. A collared blouse can look tailored beneath the collarless neck of the graduation gown and won’t leave a gap of open skin between the graduation gown and the issued graduation hood. If a dress or skirt is worn, panty- hose finish the look because the graduation gown ends at the calf and a portion of the legs will be showing. Gentleman can wear a collared dress shirt and slacks with dress shoes. Students should avoid shoes that are loose or have high heels. They can present a tripping hazard when traversing the auditorium, football field or scaling steps Congratulations and our very best wishes go out to all the graduating classes of 2011!

Some students choose to be unique by wearing flip-flops and shorts. While this certainly can make a statement, it sets the wrong mood for the event and will probably be frowned upon by administrators.
