Laughing At My Nightmare Inc (LAMN) The purpose of Laughing At My Nightmare (LAMN) is primarily to fund scientific research for a cure for Muscular Dystrophy. LAMN exists to financially assist The Cooperative International Neuromuscular Research Group (CINRG), a team of doctors and scientific researchers who are actively "dedicated to muscular dystrophy research." The well-known Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) distributes 22 cents of every dollar it raises to scientific research, while the rest goes to community outreach and muscular dystrophy awareness programs. LAMN's sole beneficiary for monetary donations will be CINRG, thus distinguishing itself from the MDA by being completely devoted to funding research. To achieve its primary goal, LAMN will create and sell a variety of products, merchandise, and services, all of which will spread a message of positivity, appreciation of life, and overcoming adversity. These three ideas are the core values of LAMN, and are valuable concepts that people of all ages can identify with and attach themselves to. By creating products that send positive, and often humorous messages, LAMN will become a prominent brand name that will be recognized for its uniquely creative merchandise line. In addition to merchandise, LAMN will also establish a "positivity promotion" presentation geared towards middle and high school aged students. The purpose of these presentations is to promote positivity in what can be a very turbulent time for many people. Many people are admittedly unhappy with their lives for a variety of reasons. LAMN will serve as a constant reminder that we all have a fundamental choice about how to react to the challenges of life; we can allow them to bring us down, or rise above them and enjoy life anyway. The timeless and universal message that LAMN offers through products and services will cause people to gravitate towards LAMN and its mission, resulting in significant revenue that can be donated to muscular dystrophy research.

Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated Fraternities/Sororities Organization_Description: Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated was founded January 16, 1920 and began as an idea conceived by five coeds at Howard University in Washington D.C. These five women dared to depart from the traditional coalitions for black women and sought to establish a new organization predicated on the precepts of Scholarship, Service, Sisterly Love and Finer Womanhood. Zeta Phi Beta Sorority was founded on the simple belief that sorority elitism and socializing should not overshadow the real mission for progressive organizations - to address societal mores, ills, prejudices, poverty, and health concerns of the day. It was the ideal of the Founders that the Sorority would reach college women in all parts of the country who were sorority minded and desired to follow the founding principles of the organization. Founder Viola Tyler was often quoted to say "[In the ideal collegiate situation] there is a Zeta in a girl regardless of race, creed, or color, who has high standards and principles, a good scholarly average and an active interest in all things that she undertakes to accomplish."

There is an internal organization called The Office of Diversity and Equity at UCONN which conducts internal investigations of matters involving harassment, discrimination and abuse on campus, but I cannot reccomend them. It was my experience with them that they were there merely to function as a buffer against bad press and lawsuits for the school. They dismissed my matter and attempted to sweep it under the rug and I have been told by lawyers familiar with the school that this is typical at UCONN. It is amazing that a school with so many minority contributions in so many areas like the mens and women's basketball teams, the football team, departments like mathematics and the sciences and so many other areas that when a minority or woman on campus experiences problems they are treated like second class citizens. It is truly shameful of UCONN and deserves to be investigated further.
