Anterior Cruciate Ligaments
By Alexis Jenkins
Alexis Jenkins definitely is very active from the start. Sports have always been her passion; growing up, you could always catch her outside at the softball field playing with her high school, tournament team, or family. This all was until she had an almost career-ending injury occur not just once but twice. Luckily, she could continue to play two years of college softball, but she always wondered why tearing your ACL, also known as your Anterior Cruciate Ligament, was such a big deal. Now years later, she is a Senior here at Millersville studying Sports Journalism. After graduation, she plans to work her way into the ESPN world to eventually become an ESPN Broadcast Journalist.

Teaching ESL Linguistics
By Jessica Rapp
Jessica Rapp was asked to do this project in my English 472.5 Digital Portfolio. She is passionate about what her project represents as a whole. It is about ESL Linguistics and teaching in a classroom. Rapp is very passionate about this as it is her goal to become an ESL Teacher once she graduates from Millersville University. She hopes that through this presentation, it will bring light to ESL in the classroom and its importance in our country as a whole. Like mentioned before, once Rapp graduates from Millersville, she plans on working towards a teaching certification, then become an ESL Teacher. She plans on including the skills and knowledge acquired while attending school at Millersville.
