I want to take a brief moment here. I have gained insight and have been opened to a new way of life. I always imagined Africa as dirt roads and houses with grass roofs. Again, I know realize the power of media, as the media most often, (at least for me), portrayed Africa in the fashion of dirt roads and houses having grass roofs. Despite taking an anthropology class taken here at Whitewater, the video in class still lead to my amazement of seeing Africa having skyscrapers and a road system like we have in the US. I was surprised to see that Africa looks Westernized and indeed has buildings likewise to downtown Milwaukee. To me this was surprising. "Africa has cities that look like US cities?" I thought to myself.
The idea of representation and learning how to question was an aspect I will walk away with as new material.
The two concepts I struggle with, due to internal beliefs and personal philosophy on life are as follows: Born free die in chains. AND Give up our freedom. My faith tells me that we are born in chains and can die free. My faith seems to give a more optimistic view. As mentioned in an earlier post, I would rather say we Use our freedom. We use our freedom to vote and to accept being represented by members of congress.

New Technologies Outsource Academic Work
Hone your writing skills. Learn how to conduct research. Become knowledgeable in your desired field. What do the following statements point towards? A college education, and perhaps more importantly the result of a college education. By writing papers a college student is able to learn and gain more knowledge about their field. Their writing skills will improve and they will understand, from the research paper at hand, how to conduct research for future papers.
I hope the tone of the beginning of this blog expresses the foolishness of having someone else write your paper. College students who pay others to write their papers are foolish. How will they learn ANYTHING? They simply won’t.
Upon reading research for a project at hand, the research and literature that doesn’t pertain to the project at hand is still valuable as students will know where to go to gain information on subjects in their major related field. By having someone else do your work you simply won’t know where to go when you graduate and have to write a paper or give a speech for your job. I suppose these students will have to pay someone else to do their work in the real world as well. Paying others to write your papers means you are losing on learning how to find research and where to get research from. Your writing skills certainly are not improving either, so then how do you plan to separate yourself, or be like the professionals in your field who did not cheat? My feedback to the article Cheating Goes Global as Essay Mills Multiply is foolishness. You simply are not learning anything new about your field or even getting to better understand and gain knowledgeable about your field by having other people do your work.
For those in the article, Cheating Goes Global as Essay Mills Multiply, that expresses paying someone to write your papers isn't unethical are foolish. Therefore, cheating must be ethical then. Another way of learning for smart and hardworking students? Why don’t those smart and hardworking students put hard work into finding articles already written about their subject for reference instead of foolishly throwing money away for a paper they “won’t even use?” Those students can save money by looking up articles in databases for reference.
