Thank you for teaching this class. I want to say that this class was an awakening in the human psyche. It allowed me to see that many of the things we see on television is manipulated by outside forces. My topic, the media, is the best example of this. The media influences are great on the human mind. The human mind is really quite a fragile thing. We learned this throughout the class. If a person suffers trauma, the person is doomed to repeat it. This repetition can occur physically or mentally. The media, who plays violent images all over the air waves, can be held responsible for the news they report, using this logic. This is quite scary, that the news reporting bad news, can result only in more bad news in the future.
This class was useful for a manifold reasons. For one, w
e understands ourselves better. If you can understand one person, then you can understand many others. If you think about it, we are all apes with a grandiose attitudes. Most of us operate the same as anyone else, so chances are that we experience trauma much the same way as each other. If we can understand trauma, then we will learn to deal with it better.
