As a junior at Clemson University I had the opportunity to take Principles of Health Fitness. Throughout the semester myself and two other group members were given a client who wished to make a lifestyle change to become healthier. As a group we conducted a series of health fitness tests on the client, reviewed the client's health goals, and discussed desired lifestyle improvements. We assessed our client’s current cardiovascular health, as well as strength and flexibility, then developed a comprehensive health fitness plan to improve our client's overall health. The product of the work done throughout the semester is detailed in the presentation below.

I wrote this paper for my Determents of Health Behavior class exploring the lack of immunizations in children 18-35 months old in the recent years and reasons why this may be occurring. In this paper I explore the various factors and motivations behind parents choosing not to immunize their children.

This paper was written for my Rural Sociology class to explore the effect that the Affordable Care Act had on health in rural communities. It explores the changes that the Act will have on these rural medical systems and how these changes will impact the community.
