  • Sponsored by Union Bank February 23, 2013 I Am Writing to Express My Sincere Gratitude for Your Generosity
    Sponsored by Union Bank February 23, 2013 I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for your generosity. As I humbly stood waiting for my name to be called [at the Scholarship Awards ceremony], I walked proud and full of emotion as I heard my name through the loud speakers. After I was photographed, I sat down and then opened up the brochure in order to see my name once more, and that is when it hit me; I was overcome with an immense feeling of appreciation as I thought to myself about what a prestigious recognition I just received. The feeling of accomplishment that I felt at that moment will remain with me forever. It is people like you who give me the strength and motivation to keep my dream alive of earning a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. I am inspired like never before. Your thoughtful donation helps me as I continue my plight to better myself and those around me. Helping this world to become a better place is my ultimate goal in life, and you have lit a fire beneath me! I extend my heart out to you to say ‘thank you’ for helping me in my time of need. --Cypress College Scholarship Recipient Minds. Motivated. You inspire the future.

  • Baseball's Worst Team Fred Worth Department of Mathematics and Computer Science
    Academic Forum 21 2003-04 Baseball's Worst Team Fred Worth Department of Mathematics and Computer Science Abstract - In this paper we will look at some of the worst teams in baseball history and try to decide which team was indeed the worst. We will look at some statistics that will compare the teams to the teams of their day to try to account for the differences in eras. Introduction Much discussion is heard regarding who the best player, hitter, pitcher, etc. in baseball history may have been. There is not typically a lot of discussion on who the worst in any of these categories may be. The 2003 season changed that a little bit due to the incredible futility displayed by the Detroit Tigers. In this paper, we will look at some of the worst teams in baseball history and see if, indeed, the Tigers qualify. Preliminary Criteria The first consideration needs to be what criteria we will use to make our determination of the worst team. Certainly the teams win-loss record and winning percentage should be considered. Since the word "worst" implies a comparison, we should also look a how far the teams finished out of first place and, to see how truly bad they were, how far they finished behind the next-to- last-place team. Candidates The following table lists the teams we will consider for the designation as the worst team in baseball history. There have been other teams that were very bad. Obviously the choice of candidates is fairly arbitrary, however, most would agree that these nine teams were rather bad.
