Pictures that LIE!

This is a picture of Clement Hurd, the illustrator of the popular childrens' story, "Goodnight Moon", by Margaret Wise Brown. In older copies of the book, this picture, which is located in the dust cover, features Hurd holding a lit cigarette, but in later editions, HarperCollins, the publisher of the book, eliminated the cigarette. I personally believe that this was a wise choice. It is inadvisable to show children pictures of people whom they look up to doing things that can be harmful to their health, such as smoking. I believe that the picture was altered in order to set a better example for children, and therefore was worth the editing.

WAY TO GO WIRELESS!!!

The wireless capabilities on the Trinity University campus are great! I can go pretty much anywhere I want on campus, and still be able to connect to the internet with my laptop!! I often take my computer to class and use it to take notes, and if I want to sit on my bed and study, rather than my desk, I can take my computer and not have to worry about internet access. I can also take my computer to the library, and sit drinking coffee and studying at the same time!! I can check grades, homework, email, and sometimes my professors post powerpoint slides that are accessable through the internet. With wireless internet, I'm not tied down anywhere on campus! When I'm finished with school stuff, or even to take an occasional break, I can use my wireless for recreation such as games and facebook.
Other college campuses are following close behind Trinity's advancement, including Hendrix College, where some of my friends go to school. To learn about their wireless network, visit http://www.hendrix.edu/it/it.aspx?id=11988.
