What trend was the article highlighting?

This article talked EXTENSIVELY about the dangers that reckless social media usage can have on a students future (this article focused primarily on the impact it can have to one's college acceptance rates).

 Do you think this trend will continue? Why?

Of course. As long as their is new technology, people will find a way to be stupid with it. Cave man made tasteless scrawlings on the wall, farm girls would itch shameless messages into woven patterns, and people from the Victorian era wrote way too much.  If anything we've just gotten lamer with our delivery. In my eyes,the message of this article should be that this generation should really go about their **** posting in a much bigger way. Hack into a jumbo tron to display pictures of your food, rent an airplane to write out your drunk tweets in cloud messages, or raise a child to communicate only through your awful memes. Just make it big. 

Explain how the behavior outlined in the article could affect a student’s future education and employment opportunities.
Its harder to get into college if the authorities know how stupid you really are. Getting into higher education is either something you earn or you con your way into: why remove the latter option?

In the 24 day molting period that began after contact with the contagion, the skeletal system showed rapid growth, most noticeably along the spinal column, which had rapid vertical and upwards growth. Extensions began protruding from this central trunk. Until finally, on the eve of this beings full coming into form, the skin and flesh seemed to just molt off, to reveal a glistening set of pine needles and intricate woodwork, that twists and tangles like the thoughts of a madman. A void has appeared where there once was a mouth, it defies logic and seems to be boundless, as none of its prey ever leaves the beast's body in any way. All previous resemblance to its former self is gone except for two of its eyes (which constantly dart around i...

6 Words Project

The task given for the "6 Words" project, was to take six words (given by another student) and to create a piece representing those six words, while also including the words within the piece. The six words I was given were Keep Calm and Play Ice Hockey. Here is the piece I created: For this piece, I tryed to break away from the very restrictive guidelines the "Keep calm and ____" meme presents, so instead the style was derived primarily from my desire to allude to the "hockey player missing a tooth" cliché. To really draw focus to this element, I decided to go with the silhouette of a hockey player with everything besides the teeth being in stark contrast to the teeth themselves (by means of black/white opposition). From the teeth I also got this feeling of blockiness that I felt I could further in the design with my choice of text. The text also felt thematically in line, with hockey being an activity that would lean towards this genre of typography. Wit...
