Journey to the Brain

   Our brain is amazingly complex. It is complicated not only in its biological way, but more importantly, in how it helps us to think, to understand the world and to construct reality. We shape our brains to form distinctive subjective reality with the help of five senses. Our self experience of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touching brings us lively perception. We also construct the brain by dream and illusion, discovering what we can’t feel in solid sense.

The Future of Cultural Change is Future Cultural Change

            Human culture is in constant motion. Human beings seem to have a long history of forward thinking. Because of this, cultural change has been taking place constantly from the beginning of culture. More specifically, the fight for equality for various oppressed groups of society have fought or been fought for since inequalities existed. More recently, the fight for animal rights has been a priority in many minds. As has happened in the past, animals will one day lay claim to some form of official documentation of rights.

Non-Fictional Prose and the Reality of All Creatures

          Throughout this course, we have explored the difficulties of categorizing literature as fiction or non-fiction. Because all literature is bound to be biased and because categorization as “non-fiction” implies truthfulness and factuality, no work of literature can be categorized as “non-fiction” with any definitiveness.

Let the Games Begin by Prianna Pathak

this is my final paper:

 

Let the Games Begin

Here are my options: write this paper or play Rock Band with my peer mentor. The average Bryn Mawr student would choose to write her paper, knowing that it was due the next day or that there are greater consequences and rewards of the paper. Yet the rewards of playing this video game, according to recent studies, may actually help me in the long run. A new world of experiments and hypothesis have arisen testing how video games both hinder and help the brain, and specifically its unconscious functions.
