prism - A medium that misrepresents whatever is seen through it.
Greetings,
Here you will find the rantings of caffeinated scholar in training. Welcome to my perspective!
I was browsing the web recently and found an interesting article on english grammar. The article can be found here.
With a quick peek at Business Writing, I was able to find other posts of interest. Maybe if I visit this site enough my blog will become easier to read.
Also while on the subject of grammar, (which I would still like to spell grammer!) another site I recently found is Grammar Hell.com.
"Perhaps your grip on reality is not quite as firm as you might have hoped" - Todd Connelly
Words are chameleons, which reflect the color of their environment. -Learned Hand, jurist (1872-1961)
What does all of this do to the best minds among the students? Most of them endure their college years with the teeth-clenched determination of serving out a jail sentence. The psychological scars they acquire in the process are incalculable. But they struggle as best they can to preserve their capacity to think, sensing dimly that the essence of the torture is an assault on their mind. And what they feel toward their school ranges from mistrust to resentment to contempt to hatred – intertwined with a sense of exhaustion and excruciating boredom.
