Academice Dishonesty

I, Cory Whitton, promise not to cheat, forge or steal anybody's work. I understand the consequences that would proceed me doing any of the previously listed actions. I would not take someone's work because I would be very mad if I put a lot into something and someone took it in as their own. I also know that if I did any of those that I could be put of for expulsion or worse I could be arrested. I know that it is not a minor offense and if it were to happen it would be taken very serious. I am the type of person that when I do something it sits on my conscience and I would never be able to forget it. It could lead to me trying to get away with other stuff that could lead me in a bad place. If were to do something like that I would jeopardize my entire future. The papers that we will not be excruciating and they are certainly are not worth getting in a lot of trouble for. I would rather just do them, get them out of the way, and have no worries. I know that it is morally wrong and my parents raised me a lot better than that to try and do something like that. My parents would be so upset with me if I were to do something like that because they know how hard I have worked to get to where I am. Finally I would be disappointed with myself because I know what I want to do in life and something as dumb as that could ruin all of my dreams. So once again I promise to never cheat, forge or steal someone's work.

Rhetoric Picture

To me this picture shows how big and powerful Google is. Google is seen swallowing much smaller competition, Yahoo, Microsoft and soon AOL. It makes Google seem like a bully by making it a lot larger then the other fish. Also the other fish have an aggressive look to them while the Google fish just looks innocent. Daryl Cagle shows how everyone views the companies, obviously making Google the largest and then everyone else much smaller.

About Me

Well to begin with my name is Cory Whitton and I am from the Charleston, SC area. Currently I am a freshman at Clemson University majoring in Political Science. My dream is to one day become governor or be a member of the senate. For the mean time I enjoy playing sports and hanging with my friends. I have one brother, Michael, and one sister, Courtney. My parents are Mark and Shelby and we all live in Bonneau Beach, South Carolina. My family is the biggest part of my life and they support me one hundred percent on my decisions to be a politician. That is pretty much all about me if you wanna know more just ask!
