aromatherapy, can reduce stress, anxiety, and pain, and improve focus. Both aromatherapy and music therapy are believed to be two cost effective and efficient interventions to help clients. The goal of this research is to design and evaluate how aromatherapy and music therapy implementation reduces anxiety and stress during hospitalization for adult oncology and neurology clients and for the unit staff members, compared to no music or aromatherapy treatment. The evaluation of the effect of complementary interventions in relieving stress and anxiety will be measured according to patient perception. Vitor Furiati - “Healthcare in Brazil” (session 18) Health care systems are very different all over the world and can vary from coverage, costs and several other factors. In Brazil for example there is a universal public system named “Sistema Unico de Saude” (Unique Health System) in which every citizen can have access to it.

I will explain the main difference between these two kinds of plans and why some people end up deciding to choose one over the other. Paul Garcia - “Literature, Racism, and Child Development” (session 4) This project explores racism in “Six to Eight Black Men,”’ an essay by David Sedaris, and a poem by Jimmy Santiago Baca called “So Mexicans are Taking Jobs from Americans.”When I first read this story and the poem they reminded me of how hard life was for my father who immigrated to the United States when he was twenty-four years old. Life was hard for him because he was a struggling newly immigrant who barely spoke the language but left his family back home in order to support his children. In this project I bring together personal experience and academic research to argue literature can show how racism is developed in childhood.

Life is full of mistakes and regrets and I am sure that we all have something we wish
