not have the same captivating effect that they do on the audience. I am applying for a place in a production design course as I am interested in pursuing a career being a set designer.

It is said that honesty is a virtue and that the truth will set you free. That may be true, but it doesn’t always lead to happiness and neither does a speeding ticket. At my age, there are many things teenagers don’t think about; politics, future, and consequence. Unfortunately, at the time, I only thought about politics and my future.

He was not afraid to show that he felt that…

In the discussions of Harper Lee’s new book, Go Set a Watchman, one major issue has been how this will affect schools that teach To Kill a Mockingbird. On the one hand, Harper Lee’s first book presents a rather simple and static Atticus Finch and her new book transforms him into a more dynamic and realistic character. On the other hand, Go Set a Watchman eventually became To Kill a Mockingbird for a reason- it presents a powerful message of hope that when taught properly, students benefit…
