students or international students have not been followed up. We international students might need extra attention on things like class choosing, financial aid and place to go at breaks. Before hearing my opinion on solving the problem, I would like to show my vision of a good orientation. I think a good orientation need to be detailed on places especially in small campuses but not just stop at giving tours; it could be better than just walking around campus, sitting down listening lectures and…

with a naked child (his actual son, Brontis) clutching on behind him” (Hoberman 80). The film starts out bold. El Topo reins in his horse and tell his son, “Today you are seven years old. Now you are a man. Burry your first toy and your mother’s picture” (Hoberman 80). Brontis follows…

Edgar Allan Poe, perhaps the greatest gothic writer of his era, was known to inspire many dark and brooding feelings within his readers. Gothic is a writing style that often invokes fear, horror, and extreme romanticism.

By depicting Louise as a child, one can gather that at this point she is young and naïve and does not realize what exactly she is crying about, often as a child does. After Louise stops crying, however, she comes to the realization that she is now an independent woman. She has grown up and no longer sobs like a child would. The image of the crying child shows the hopefulness Louise feels after she…

Parents introduce it to their children, and because of this it has worked its way up to present day.

In addition to the dynamic position of the visible group, the Virgin of the Rocks is also noteworthy for its rocky, almost mysterious setting in which the figures are placed.
