Journal #6

1) The last time I made a difference in the life of more than one person was two weeks ago, when i was volunteering at Neighbor to Neighbor. Neighbor to Neighbor is a food pantry in Greenwich, where students can go to volunteer their time, to organize and fold clothing, as well as work in the food pantry helping people check out, and restalking the shelves. This makes a difference in the lives of people because without our help they might not have food on the table for their familiy, or clothes to keep them warm.
2) If we don't begin producing graduate and doctoral students in the field of science, many things could happen to the U.S. There would not be as much funding for science any longer, because the government would see the loss of intrest in it, and think it's not important anymore. This means we as society would not move along further technologically. Meaning we would never find cures to diseases such as cancer, or the common cold. Everything in science would be affected. Nobody would be able to find out more about our past, nor move along with the future.
