This class was one of the more challenging classes I took this term. It took me out of my element. I have mostly taken classes in the psychology department and not neuroscience. With that being said I did enjoy the class. It opened my mind up to the different aspects of psychology. I was a little behind on some of the topics we discussed in class and found myself looking up words i did not know. This helped me understand the articles better because I was not questioning what important words or…

"The Shawshank Redemption" starts off with the familiar brutality of a prison movie. Convicted in the late 1940s for the murder of his wife and her lover, banker Tim Robbins is thrown into the slammer (the Shawshank penitentiary in Maine) for two consecutive life sentences.

comes to creating a proactive, diverse culture within their team. This is something I would stress to Rita as she moves forward, not only in her evaluation process, but interactions with the team as a whole. I would suggest that Rita spend time with each of her employees, work side by side with them and most importantly, listen to them, just don’t “hear” them. By spending time with her employees, Rita can learn more about them on a personal level, helping her understand what makes them “tick”…

Andy Dufresne was a banker in Maine when he was convicted of murdering his wife and her lover. He was sentenced to two consecutive…

Imagine waking up every day at 5AM and getting dressed just to be confined to a small 5X5 cell for 90% of your day. Picture yourself not being entitled to any privileges or an opinion about anything, and the single element that serves as your identity is a 10-digit number.

Well, for the past several…
