Photos Tell the Truth... Or do They?

The picture I chose was the one on the Wisconsin University Application cover. I chose this because it shows the level that some people are willing to drop to, only to make themselves look better.

The picture was changed when a member of Wisconsin University put a 1994 photo of a black student, Diallo Shabazz, into a 1993 shot from a football game. This was done to show the diversity of the campus.

This manipulation may not have been harmful at the time, but it is certainly unethical. This type of manipulation gives a false sense of campus atmosphere, which is a critical factor when a student is choosing which university to attend. This false representation of the school could have harmed students future based on the image on the application cover.

We Have Gone Wireless

Trinity has become one of the most wireless campuses in the country, and this poses many advantages for the students there. The ability to access the internet from anywhere on campus with a laptop has created an efficient environment for students.

Some the the great advantages of having a wireless campus is that the students appreciate staying connected and being in touch with current events. At anytime a student can check their email, which allows them to be up to date with their professors. One of the most positive things that come from having a wireless campus is that a student can have a power point presentation that the professor had put on the internet infront of them during the class. This allows the student to make their own notes directly to the computer, and not have to spend a majority of their time writing notes; more time is allowed for the student to pay closer attention to the material.
