The Impressions

experiences. Welty emphasises specific words to strengthen how much reading is important to her. “SILENCE in big black letters was on signs tacked up everywhere.” This creates a feel and image that how the library might be or look and how it left an impression on her, which is a type of diction called imagery. The author also did this when she says, “I wanted to read immediately.” With having the worlds in italics, it also emphasized the details of how much Welty wanted to read. Overall, that…

immensely, it was a comfortable but thought-provoking read that left me feeling almost nostalgic, like sorting through boxes of old photographs. Didion's description of her journal-keeping practices reminded me of my own forgotten diaries, a vague impression of flowery, softly colored books with flimsy little locks. I had dozens of equally fragile keys to match, each one capable of unlocking all the diaries (which various relatives relentlessly gifted me), not matter which it had originally…

Summary (3-6 sentences): The article “Does Online Privacy Exist?” examines how even when private settings are set to the highest level, everything leaves a digital footprint that can share private information with interested 3rd parties. The article specifically looks at social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram; and the false sense of privacy being offered to their users. It also discusses the role government has played in the struggle to offer real privacy online. (5 pts.)…

it was ethical for Gladys Morrison to apply, but it was not ethical for that she did not say anything about her pregnancy, so they could know about it from her and not other people. Telling them about the pregnancy, she would give them a better impression of herself. In the same way, she should have…

The goal of this paper is to examine the positive account of casual interaction given by David Hume in his An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding. My aim is to explain the way that one’s ideas about a particular cause are related to an idea of a particular effect, such that the first event actually caused the second event. This will require an understanding of the technical philosophical language used by Hume as well as a deep look into the logic he used to build his theory. In the later part…

contemplate the concepts of the self and personal identity as a whole. Current ideas of personal identity stated that we humans have a simple, unchanging self. To Hume this would be impossible because that would mean that we would have to have an impression that remained…

them or hate them, first impressions are meaningful. The same can be true for first impressions of websites. Some sites, WebMD, for example, are laid out similar to news websites, with headlines and eye-catching images. They are busy, yet not overwhelming, making them user-friendly and simple to follow. The Mayo Clinic’s website is similar to WebMD in that it is organized, although it has a different “feel”. The Mayo Clinic’s site is professional looking. Some first impressions aren’t good, for…

So the first school I looked into was a Riverview Junior High School, this school is part of the Murray School District. The website for this school was very basic, which I think is much better than having too many things that can overwhelm people with too much information. It is a clean look and makes it easy for parents who are looking to find out information. One thing that I really liked that I found was that the school offers what’s called plus time. Plus time is a 25 minute block of time…

for “equality” with men, but oftentimes the media can distort this view. Due to many feminists taking the goal of equality to the point of hating on the male population, the views of feminists have become negative. The media presents a mistaken impression on feminism, which induces the hatred towards feminists, which then only encourages these feminists to expose their hateful actions and words even more. One feminist account on Twitter tweeted out “Here’s your daily reminder that I hate men.”…

has become one of my favorite places on campus to eat. There is something about this dining hall that leaves a lasting impression on all students unlike the other dining halls. By providing the perfect atmosphere to socialize and enjoy a delicious all-you-can-eat selection, students form some of their best memories here. It says a lot about one place when it can make that impression on so many, and while only being a dining hall, Caesar Rodney has not fallen short of doing just…
