Senior Sociology/Criminology major, Amanda Wolf, is grateful to have been given the opportunity to publish her work in the 2025 Made in Millersville Journal. She was originally introduced to the journal and conference through a prior course in editing works for publication, and since then, she has always hoped to submit her own work someday. As a degree requirement, one of her courses required her to design and carry out a research project. One of the most noteworthy learning curves of the project was that the final research question and method were not what she had intended, as she had anticipated conducting her own surveys with local high school students in English as a Second Language classrooms. Amanda explained in the article that in the end, she learned more about the research process than she did from her study results. She has always had a passion for serving those who, due to social or environmental pressures and disadvantages, are marginalized in society, especially youth. She believes that every child deserves to have a fair chance at the life they want and that social institutions should do whatever they can to ensure that children's needs are met. She anxiously awaits what is in store for her after graduation this spring and in what way she will be able to further support the youngest members of society. Lastly, she would like to thank her professors, family, and the Made in Millersville Journal staff for their encouragement and support.
