Arthesians

Share definition Flag
This is a "New" word being used by African Americans, rather than being called "Black or African Americans or Mixed Race or the "N" Word"

"Arthesians: 1) American people born and genetically developed from multiple races, who are of multiple shades and skin tones. 2) People of color, descendants of Indians, Africans, Caucasians and all other races born in American. 3) Generations of people born in America that has evolved from a melting pot of multiple races.

America, nor the genetic ethnic culture of the American people are the same people of the founders and developers of this country. There has never been a vote by the people to what identify is appropriate, from generation to generation, the identify was just forced into the minds of young and old people.

It is my intention to seek a identity change for Blacks/African Americans that bring dignity to their identity "Arthesians". We are not Colored, Black or African. The first time our identified from Negro, Colored to Black was in the 60'. After the organization of the "Black Panthers" and desegregated in the Southern states; Mr. James Brown, published a song "I am Black and Proud". Then all "Colored people start referring themselves as "Black". Mr. Jessie Jackson in 1987, after a video game had degrading content about "Black people" changed blacks identity to "African-Americans".
Arthesians

Charles, your race identity have changed again, your race was once called Colored, then Black, to African-American and now, you are being identified as an "Arthesian". Wow, "Arthesian" does sound better than any of the previous identities. The word "Arthesian" seem to eradicate "Color", I am impressed!

A student who doesn’t have a thesis

Athesists, students who don’t have a thesis, question the existence of their thesis. They doubt the function, benefit and role of thesis in their education. They think they don’t need a thesis and think that thesis is not important. Athesism could lead to destructive behavior such as spending too much time in the canteen instead of the library and engaging in behaviors that are not related to thesis writing.

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
