When I migrated to the United States in May of 1999, I had great anticipation for the new turn my life would take, and also to finally get a start on my educational goals. Even though I was ready for this drastic change in my life, I was a bit worried about how I would fit in with coworkers and classmates due to the fact that I would have a different background and culture. During my four years in the United States I have had a few encounters with persons who had absolutely no respect for my beliefs and culture due to the fact that I migrated from a small Island, and they had no knowledge of anywhere outside of the United States. During my last year at Heald College, I was introduced to International Business. Dur
