Photo Editing

The photo I chose to examine was the Wisconsin Application cover photo. I chose this photo because my father went to the university and I am a big Wisconsin fan. I also chose this photo because I recently went through the application process and I thought it was a funny thing for Wisconsin to ad a black face into the picture.
The picture was taken by the school at a Wisconsin football game. The Wisconsin administration used photo shop or some other photo editing device to place a black face in the picture to try to display diversity in the picture. Colleges around the nation strive for diversity and it is usually a main concern for applicants applying to colleges.
I did not find the manipulation harmful. Wisconsin is a fairly diverse college and I feel like the administration loved the picture, but they felt they had to show the diverse side of the university as well. The only way to show the diversity of the University and use the picture was to manipulate the photograph.

My Use of the Wireless Network

I use the wireless capabilities at Trinity many different ways. The wireless network is useful for accessing the internet, while juggling other distractions. For example, I often read assignments and look over homework, while eating and short periods between class. The wireless network allows me to be more efficient academically throughout my day.

However, there are some down sides to having access to the internet everywhere. The wireless network makes it easy for students to become distracted in class. Some students also become obssessed with facebook or email. However, I find the network more useful from an academic standpoint even with the disrtractive possibilities it brings.
