As a child Lange dealt with polio; which gave her a limp for the rest of her life and possibly fed into her desire to photograph some of the darker sides of what was going on in Japanese internment camps. Lange attended Columbia University studying photography. Lange did many collections; her first big one being the Native Americans in the southwest.

Of course, that was in West Germany.

CRN:23166 Going to high school is an experience, because walking into any high school for most teenagers is like walking into another world. In one’s opinion high school could be considered a metaphor for the real world because school is a subculture in itself. The text book attests that, “While in school, young people acquire identities and learn patterns of behavior…exposed to a hierarchical, bureaucratic environment...[and schools] emphasize conformity to societal needs...” (Margaret L. Anderson, 2008). Choosing The Breakfast Club to analyze social inequality seemed like a perfect example to write about.

For a teenager it is not considered politically correct to say a vulgar word such a hell valedictorian or not. Granted she did submit a draft to the school of what her speech would consist and used the word heck instead of hell.
Critical Essay: The Children’s Story, by: James Clavell Is it possible to brainwash a large group of human beings in exactly twenty-five minutes? You probably think that this is impossible, but an author named James Clavell made it possible in his short story called, “The Children’s Story.” In Clavell’s short story The Children’s Story he has a new teacher that takes control of a class of elementary students. The new teacher persuaded them to follow all of her beliefs in exactly twenty-five minutes by telling them what they wanted to hear. Clavell convinces the audience that it is possible to brainwash humans within twenty-five minutes with a psychological point of view. Clavell used his psychological knowledge on children to convey that humans can be easily persuaded to do something.
