Welcome
This is my e-porfolio for general education classes at Salt Lake Community College.
About Me
Hello, my name is David Anderson. I was born and raised in the suburbs of Los Angeles, California, but now reside in Salt Lake City, Utah. I have been an auto mechanic for 20 years. I have the opportunity to return to school and I am making the best of it. I have included my profile below.
David Anderson
It’s Never too Late to Earn a College Degree
“He, who opens a school door, closes a prison.” ~ Victor Hugo.
David Anderson is a Salt Lake Community College student whose attention was drawn to the subject of physician-assisted suicide. David believes there are problems with certain regulations and procedures involving the treatment of terminally-ill patients. Through his research, David found that although physician-assisted suicide is not a common subject in today’s news, there has been significant debate on this subject. Oregon, Washington, and Montana have passed laws legalizing physician-assisted suicide.
David’s career goal is to manage an aircraft maintenance facility, either corporate or commercial. David is graduating from SLCC in May 2012 with an A.A.S. in Aviation Maintenance and an A.S. in General Studies, with high honors. David will transfer to Utah Valley University in fall 2012 to earn a B.S. in Technology Management.
He has worked as an auto technician for twenty years. His skills include all aspects of auto and aircraft maintenance. David is a member of the Phi Theta Kappa honor society here at SLCC. He is on the President’s List and he received a scholarship from the George F. Pearson Trust Foundation in spring 2012. David has been awarded the Dean’s Merit scholarship for 2012-2013 at UVU.
David’s three English 2010 publications are: *“Modern-day Serfs: The American dream is in dire need of a transplant.” This is a report on the growing gap between the rich and the poor in America. *”Legalized Self-Destruction: Additional end-of-life options are necessary.” This position/proposal paper discusses physician-assisted suicide. *”My journey back from the, point of the mountain.”In his memoir, David recalls his struggle with alcoholism and his subsequent incarceration in Utah State Prison near the point of the mountain. This was the life altering event that he so desperately needed.
