predominantly secular and rationalistic; it

When I went to see the movie On the Waterfront, I
thought that I was going to be bored because the
movie was in black and white. But as I started to
watch the movie it got more and more interesting.

though I thought that, I was wrong because Dr.
Fisher said ...

Opposite Sex Extra Credit

When I visited Berry College, one of the first
things that I learned was Martha Berry's mission
for her students - to educate the head, the heart,
and the hands. The lady in the admissions office
who welcomed us to Berry beamed as she told me how
almost a hundred years later this mission is still
the driving force behind Berry College. What a
wonderful place to be, I thought to myself. A
place where I will grow mentally, spiritually, and

drunk, and to interact with friends or among the
unacquainted. Throughout my many visits to the
Study Hall, I observed multiple kinds of social

study of something. Furthermore, allow study to be
defined as the active pursuit of knowledge. For
instance, someone who studies because they crave
the acquisition of a particular knowledge is doing
so actively, whereas someone who studies because
they are required (i. e. the college student who
is attending college solely for the purpose of a
degree) is not. Integrating the two definitions,
we deduce that a student is someone who actively
