Read the excerpt from a speech to Congress by Woodrow Wilson, 1917. The present German submarine warfare against commerce is a warfare against mankind. . . . American ships have been sunk, American lives taken, in ways which it has stirred us very deeply to learn of. . . . Our motive will not be revenge or the victorious assertion of the physical might of the nation, but only the vindication of right, of human right. . . . The world must be made safe for democracy. Its peace must be planted upon the tested foundations of political liberty. . . . We are but one of the champions of the rights of mankind.

Which of the following policies during WWI represents a contradiction to principles argued in the second half of the excerpt?

internment of Japanese Americans
Espionage Act and Sedition Act
Creel Committee propaganda
isolationism

I’ll be a junior in high school next year and i’m aiming for top colleges like northwestern university, princeton, stanford, etc. i’m worried my schedule for next year isn’t challenging enough in the eyes of top colleges. my courses next year are: ap english lit, ap psychology, english 3 hn, pre-calculus hn, us history (only offered at an average level or ap which is a 2 semester course), physics (same reasoning as us history), students in action (a class centered around volunteer work), and creative writing (i want to major in creative writing or literature). is this a “challenging” junior year? i’m on the varsity swim team and i have a part-time job so i don’t want to overwork myself. i also have limited space in my schedule and can’t take both ap us history and ap physics (both are 2 semesters). i can always take ap biology (2 semester class) and get rid of both physics and us history altogether (i’d rather take ap bio than ap physics and i can easily take physics senior year) but i’d have to take us history online because it’s a required junior class. it all comes back around to i need us history no matter what.
