The Flashing of Lights and Cameras Energy. It flowed through my veins in place of blood; the tingling sensations filling me with a sense of nervousness. After so many years of doing theatre, you would think I would have learned to be calm, but I wasn’t. Far from it, actually. The butterflies in my stomach made me queasy, the waiting made me anxious, and the noises that surrounded me gave me a headache. I wanted the wait to be over; I wanted to get on that stage and just start acting so I could…

Anyone who hasn’t been living under a rock for the past thirty years (on that note, even ten years) acknowledges that the world has changed radically. From the rise and further advancement of computers, to the increasing prevalence of bioengineering, and even something as simple as how people discuss things all demonstrate that this is a radically different world from my parents, my grandparents and my great grandparents. With these innovations, problems both contemporary and archaic have…

Throughout the coursework in my Master’s program, I learned many factors and considerations of reading. Most importantly, I learned that reading is so much more than simply decoding words. Reading requires the reader to use multiple strategies simultaneously in order to properly decode and comprehend. To an outsider, reading can seem to be a simple activity that most children learn from a young age. When I first began working with students who had difficulty reading, I was surprised by how many…

lenses- it’s reality but just put in a way for children to understand. It is quite a profound allegory for the impact of our actions and the swift modernization of society on the environment, and how we have to remember to give back what we take. Seuss is simply stating that we have to take care of Mother Nature just the way it’s taken care of us since the beginning of time- it’s given us enough, and more- but for humans, unless there is somebody who truly cares,…

The iconic symbol of Brophy, standing in the shade, could be felt more as an emotion rather than an icon. The course material used to create the mascot formed miniature canyons and mountains that, when touched, gave off a familiar touch.

Surrounding it was a triangle, holding dozens of gallons of water, creating a platform for the beast.…
