.... main goal is to persuade. They want us to see the American way through their eyes. They tell us what to eat, drink, wear, drive, and think. Advertisers start this form of brainwashing on us at a very early age. They lay the groundwork of ideals early on because it is easy to persuade a child.

.... to do the job we are seeking, but have we acquired the intellectual capacity for continued learning? Was our curiosity tapped? Or worst of all satisfied? Both the articles “I Go to College” by Lincoln Steffens and the film Dead Poets Society present a unique struggle between the traditional methodologies and the desire for something more. It is time to analyze the university experience with regards to what is and what should be. Our expectations and our realities.
