LaBreea Walsh’s March 10th article regarding note-taking seemed to suggest that taking notes by hand is always the best situation for every student. I’m skeptical by nature of any article that claims to know unilaterally what is best for every student on campus, and this issue in particular is one that is near and dear to me. While I respect the opinion stated in the article, Walsh seems to be writing the article primarily from a perspective of personal experience, and in doing so disregarding those of us who might have a vastly different set of circumstances.

“You see, when we let the children have these devices—these Nintendos and PlayBoxes, or whatnot—it completely takes away their capacity for imagination. If it were up to me, there would be no video games at all. When I was a kid, my dad gave me a stick and a rock and told me to go make my own fun. And I was grateful for it! These days if something doesn’t have a screen, kids won’t even look at it! This is why I’m proposing legislation to ban all electronic devices for anyone under the age of 21. Let’s reclaim our children and remind them why they’re here: to adhere to our every need.”

Is it really second semester already? Even with a couple weeks under our belts, I’m not alone in still having a slight winter break fever. The start of classes came quickly, however I’ll admit, it was exciting to get back in the swing of things. With that said, I arrived to my first lecture a few minutes early in order to find a decent seat, scan the room for familiar faces and get all note-taking materials situated. To my surprise, minutes after I pulled out my laptop and opened a new notepad template, the professor announced, “There will not be screens allowed in my class.” Confused and embarrassed, I closed my computer and shoved it back in my backpack. Had I missed something? Never before had I been disallowed from taking notes on my computer, and I immediately questioned why.
News reports over winter break provided a flurry of headlines worth talking about, from the CIA torture report, gasoline prices falling to the lowest they’ve been in six years and President Obama restoring diplomatic relations with Cuba. All of these events possess a high level of significance, but none more-so than the terror attack in Paris Jan. 7 when two gunmen wearing masks and wielding assault weapons killed 12 people. Their target? A cartoon newspaper named Charlie Hebdo that prints satirical cartoons depicting the Muslim prophet Muhammad.
