it all out the window because it was all wrong. An article came across my desk the other day “The Speech The Graduates Didn’t Hear" by Jacob Neusner. It suggests that the last four years of their college career has prepared them for a world which doesn’t exist. Not allowing them to fail‚ and providing an easy way out. Giving things they demanded yet didn’t deserve. I felt as if it was education that failed not the students. On several notes the writer admits education was what failed not the students:

I Robot The opening scene of I‚ Robot shows main character Det. Spooner‚ played by Will Smith as a less than happy fellow. As the alarm wakes him up in the morning‚ Spooners looks at himself in the mirror without any expression of joy. The audience is able to tell that Spooner has a complex personality and carries some baggage. In the background you hear "superstitious" playing as a mean to present Spooner as a superstitious man. I think that this movie causes the audience to question if there is

The motive of the journey and the return—Cuevas’s return to Guatemala‚ her return to a traumatic past—are central to her memory narrative. The director’s narrative “I” assumes a situated point of view as a woman‚ a ladina‚ an exile‚ and the direct relative of a disappeared person. By placing herself in Guatemala‚ by returning‚ so to speak‚ to the scene of the crime‚ she counters the hegemonic discourse of the nation and of history‚ a discourse whose impersonal and universalizing vantage point reflects

Northrop Frye Writing Assignment When writing literature‚ one must focus on the form and expression of the content rather than the content itself. In “The Singing School”‚ Northrop Frye argues that “the literary writer isn’t giving information‚ either about a subject or about his state of mind: he’s trying to let something take on its own form…” (Frye 17). Unlike the first two levels of minds -where the English language at these levels is verbal address- literature has no direct audience due to

On the surface‚ Horton Hears a Who seems to be a simple children’s story‚ similar to others written by Dr. Seuss. Before taking this class‚ I had seen the movie once before. Once I had heard that we would be watching it to compare to scripture‚ I couldn’t help but laugh. I could not see any biblical parallels in the movie on the surface‚ however after putting some more thought into it and watching the film in class with the prompt in mind‚ I saw a new story line I had never considered before.
