Student Newsroom: Autism Awareness Month

Student Newsroom: Knowledge Isn't Power
| Breanna Wilson | Student Newsroom
At some point in our lives, we’ve all heard the phrase, “knowledge is power.” Perhaps you’ve seen it plastered on a cheesy motivational poster in the library or were lectured with this Sir Francis Bacon quote by your parents desperately trying to make you finish your homework. This implies that more intelligent people are more successful, have more control over their lives and the world around them.

Parallax is defined as the effect whereby the position or direction of an object appears to differ when viewed from different positions. This is evident when you view a finger within an arm’s length from your head and see how it appears to change positions as you alternate closing one eye at a time.
