“CLIP Collage Hour Report”
Long time ago, many students and I went to a CLIP college Hour (located in room S112) . There we listened to three presentation. The topics were “Sexual Harassment, Domestic Violence and Plagiarism. Furthermore, We were given advice and examples to support the topics.
Sexual Harassment is the actions of making someone feel uncomfortable through sexual attention, which is illegal in the state of New York. Sexual Harassment can include touching, talking and looking. For example; this also can occur through Verbal actions that is when you comment, Nonverbal can happen when you look at someone’s body, Physical is touching and Visual is showing emails or drawings.
Domestic Violence is a significant problem in households, this is when the husband or wife physically abuses their spouse. It can also include child abuse, which is when parents hit the children. For example; a husband hit his wife because she doesn’t want do what he said or parents hit their child because he did something wrong. Your advice must be; talk to someone that you really feel close to, or calling 311 for services and for emergency 911 will be a big help for you.
Plagiarism is the action of stealing or copying information from other people’s words. For example; you paraphrase someone's information without showing or not giving extra credit to the author who really wrote the information. As result, you will can guilty of Plagiarism (stealing someone words).
In conclusion, they gave us some tips that might be helpful for us, and it was not to engage in any type of Sexual Harassment, try help someone who needs help with any kind of Domestic violence and not to steal someone’s words to show that you made the work in order to get credit.

"Class Visit"
Long ago, I visited three classes at QCC. One of the classes were "Biology 110" with professor Dr. Elleston in room 420 (located on the Science building). Even though the class started at 1:10 pm., I arrived there at 12:50. The class was supposed to end at 1:50 pm., but we clocked out at 1:40 for some reason. Subsequently, the topic of the class was " Inorganic Chemistry Atomic Structure". I had a pretty easy understanding of the class. Moreover, just as the time went fast, I found the class interesting because if we get in deeply into the class, we could learn how to neutralize danger in life. For example, I wonder why some times I get a little shock when I grab the handle of the door, but it only happens during winter time. I don't know the answer yet, but I think that this is a matter of fact. In conclusion, if there is any student who wants to take this class, I totally agree with them to take it especially with the teacher because she gets to the point, so you will get what you are looking for from this class.
