It was one of those defining moments where I was painfully aware of how different I was from th

2、e people around me. I had not yet graduated from high school, and yet there I sat in a class on personal and social adjustment, feeling an odd combination of excitement and anxiety. I distinctly recall my heart pounding and my irrational fear that, at any moment, someone would inform me that I did n

3、ot belong there. I was considered an oddity at my high school as the only student in the history of the school to attend secondary and postsecondary institutions simultaneously as a fulltime student. I was reminded of the fact not through vast support from my schools faculty, but through blatant voc

4、al discouragement. In an environment where a large majority of residents live below the poverty level, it must have seemed strange that I would attend university early instead of applying for employment. The initial hardships of my first year in college did anything but deter me from wanting to stud

5、y anthropology. Indeed, the adversity I experienced only succeeded in intensifying it. My high school classes were rather cold and clinical in their teachings, maintaining a firm adherence to stating and memorizing facts with little or no attempt to have students engage with the material. My interes

6、t in culture and my natural response to analyze, question, and participate was stifled behind state standards. In contrast, my fascination with culture was able to proliferate in postsecondary schooling as a result of a liberal arts education and my own proposed course of study. My early education i

7、n anthropology started with a historical glance at cultural theory through works of influential pioneers like Malinowski and Mead. I became fascinated by the theoretical framework involved in cultural exploration, especially how cultural beliefs and values play a role in the every day lives of indiv

8、iduals. During a class on ritual and spectacle, I drove headlong and enthusiastically into ideas of ritual importance and its impact on societies. The subjects ranged from the roles of wedding rites to funerals, and I analyzed certain ceremonies and assessed the meaning of their various components.

9、Another class taught by the same professor took ritual metaphor and applied it to narrative. The course addressed European stories from an analytical perspective, and I examined well-known folktales to yield their ritual symbology. I found myself impassioned by the idea of exploring beyond the super

10、ficial guise of narrative and seeing it as a meaningful way of expressing a societys basic beliefs and ideologies. Immersing myself in the works of other inspiring anthropologists, I examined texts on narrative form and nature, ritual metaphor and the importance of storytelling in culture. My intere

11、st in storytelling resulted in the subject of my undergraduate thesis. I decided to focus on American narration, specifically concentrating on expressions of masculinity in mens magazines. It discussed dialogue in magazines as well as in teen male group settings, focusing on the conceptualization an

12、d presentation of gender in both circumstances. My overarching approach examined how masculine identity in the media has evolved over the last century. I further presented how manly behavior was glamorized in the text from three contemporary mens magazines, and juxtaposed it with an ethnographic wor

13、k about how young men communicate and assert their gender roles. My thesis topic is slightly removed from what I would like to study in graduate school, but the process familiarized me with the prerequisites required for social research. These included a delay in progress by routine realities, such

14、as gaining IRB approval to interview and observe minors, as well as being forced to dig through the vast sea of material on womens magazines just to yield the limited data done on mens publications. The college that I attended also emphasized the importance of organizing ones own curriculum during j

15、unior and senior years. It was an unrestricted program in which the student consults with sponsors and plans his or her own course of study. This program approached the undergraduate thesis with the same level of intensity and professionalism as a graduate dissertation. For my thesis, I assessed my

16、topic and its requirements, efficiently planning my eventual course of study. I organized tutorials with my sponsors and established necessary reading lists that would contribute to my progress. Tutorial discussions allowed me to gain a broad scope of the research process and solidify my thesis into

17、 working theoretical, cultural and ethnographic papers. I earned permission to conduct fieldwork at a local Boys and Girls club, and was approved to interview and observe the interaction between teenage males at the club. For six months, I listened to the things they considered to be important aspec

18、ts of masculinity and used my time there as one example of teenage suburban expression of larger societal gender roles. I was able to further gain a taste of the graduate dissertation process when I successfully defended my undergraduate thesis during an oral presentation to my sponsors and an outsi

19、de examiner. The liberal arts education I received has given me the means to approach social anthropology in a perceptive manner and to consider the various intricacies that influence and shape certain aspects of culture. These were abilities that grew and thrived in an educational environment that

20、allowed me to think critically about topics in anthropology and choose my own course of study. I emerged from college not with textbook facts floating around in my psyche, but with questions, thoughts and theories. I believe it is my undergraduate liberal arts background that provides me with an abe

21、rrant and perceptive approach to cultural anthropology. During my hiatus between undergraduate and graduate education, I was able to step back from the research that captivated me for two years in order to reevaluate my goals in anthropology. While my break did not include leaving school for an exte

22、nded period, I used the time to once again study broadly in the social sciences. By taking courses in psychology and other areas of anthropology separate from my undergraduate focus, I challenged myself further through exposure to different material and contrasting teaching styles, thereby gaining a

23、n educated and informed understanding of my intended course of study for graduate school. My extensive consideration of anthropology and the combination of both my undergraduate and post-baccalaureate education has given me the means to approach graduate school in a thoughtful and perceptive manner.

24、 Additionally, this hiatus gave me the ability to devote necessary attention to choosing graduate schools that will both challenge my views of cultural identity and allow me to excel in anthropology. Yours sincerely, 澳大利亚留学申请文书怎么写呢? 一、符合西方思维习惯 文化的差异导致东西方在什么是美德和优缺点的看法上不尽相同。在以往的经历中发现，有些留学申请人表达出来的“优点”实

25、际上在西方看来是缺点，反映申请人对学术问题毫无主见;而有些申请人认为不好的东西恰恰是西方人所欣赏的，认为这些能表现出申请人充满个性。所以申请人要了解如何以西方的思维方式取舍你的申请素材，把有益的亮点有选择性地挑选出来，在适当地篇幅里展示出来。 二、突出重点，主线确定 清楚有力地表达您的求学动机，和学习学术能力。在国内有一种错误的观点，个人陈述要“煽情”才能有效果。有的留学申请人就通过描述不相干活动展示“独特”的性格，或是学术上感觉没有什么可写的，就写自己考试时克服了重重困难，如何考取了好成绩。这是根本不着边际的写法，会让录取者发掘不到你的特点。 要知道，个人陈述是要在很短的时间内，清楚地用几百字告诉招生教授你是入学特别合格的人选，盲目“煽情”完全不需要。千万别描述你如何地历尽劫难，别乱下结论，你不可能因为愤怒和苦难而脱颖而出。 三、结构简单，衔接紧密 留学文书怎么写，留学文书其实是你个人的广告。要重点突出，形象鲜明。仔细想想，留下深刻印象的广告哪个不是简明而富有创意的-许多申请人常常想把自己的全部优点都写出来告诉教授，觉得这样才能全面的展现自己。但是试想一下，招生教授天天都要做大量的教学工作，
