Comment on This class changed my life by jamieedindjiklian

I’d like to think that I was pretty culturally aware prior to taking this class, but I must say that Arts in NYC was an enjoyable and relevant course. There weren’t too many academic pressures, and guidelines were flexible, which was very important to me as an architecture student. After staying awake for countless hours working in Shepard Hall, it was never a big deal to show up to this class.

I’ve recently seen friends from back home who are totally jealous that I was able to take a course where we learned about New York City and traveled to all these amazing cultural institutions.

Who would think it could be possible that Lillian would be less wordy in her blogs than she is with her answers in class? I think I’m going to enter her into the Guinness Book of World Records for the most concise student ever.

But isn’t this the human reaction to all stimuli from theater to film to music to sex to dental pain? You remember aspects of the event.

Comment on What IS Normal? by afarooqi

You know Mohammad, when we first started reading Focault’s book and the section of abnormal vs normal, the same thoughts ran through my mind. What IS normal? What IS abnormal? Who can truly define what they are? It’s subjective, if you ask me. I also agree with Steven. Whoever or whatever causes harm or is a threat to us, we usually lock up in either a prison or asylum. Those people aren’t sane and therefore not normal.
In “What’s Wrong With Angry?”, the fact that Steven is gay, makes him abnormal. That is usually the case anywhere one goes. If you see a mentally disabled person for the first time, it will be new and weird for you. But, if you continuously see that mentally disabled person, it will no longer be weird or new. I guess in “What’s Wrong With Angry?”, they didn’t see gay people too much, therefore they thought Steven was crazy or strange. But in New York, for example, there are gay people left and right, so when we see a gay person, it’s not too much of a big deal for us.
