to be taken from that environment and put in an institution where there’s nothing but punishment and threats and punishment and more threats. So to me, that’s very damaging. So. That’s it.
Ways of loving and parenting children were lost to countless family lines as a result of residential schools. Without proper love, care, attention and teaching, children grew into adults who didn't know how else to raise their own children besides what they picked up from the people who ran the schools. From there, trauma continues on through generations.
-
You get whacked in the head in front of your peers in the classroom – that you’re stupid.
Shame is a huge feature of residential schools that come to my mind. School officials relentlessly treated Indigenous children poorly, and attacked them if they did not behave or perform in a manner that was acceptable to them. Right at the start from entering the school, then having their belongings taken away, to being forbidden from speaking their language or practicing their culture, to having to pray for parents back home because they were “sinners,” as Elsie Paul had said, were all ways of making the children feel ashamed of who they are.

The government isolated the people. Took away the lands and put people on reserves: “You stay there. You are not to go beyond this line. You are not to go into the white community.”
This makes me think about who enforced these laws and the methods used to maintain this. The pass and permit system, not legislated by the Indian Act, held people on the reserves and prevented people from moving around like many families and communities had before settler colonial powers took over and enforced their regulations on Indigenous society.

In 1941, he published "Wells, Hitler and the World State," in which he argued that Germany hewed much closer to a well-run society in which everyone thinks similarly and along scientific lines than England ever has. But it was run by a "criminal lunatic," so that didn't work out quite as Wells thought it would. Orwell also noted that patriotism, which Wells thought of as civilization-destroying, was the primary force inducing Russians and Britons to fight against Hitler.
first referent "he" is George Orwell
Example of a time in which patriotism and nationalism may have been beneficial.

Wells attempts in this essay to help mankind "pull it's mind together" for the betterment of people and the planet. How is this supposed to happen in a modern media environment which is designed to pull our minds apart as rapidly as possible?
How might the strength of capitalism be leveraged to push people back toward a common middle rather than split them apart?
-
Adler & Hutchinson's Great Books of the Western World was an encyclopedia-based attempt to focus society on a shared history as their common ground. H. G. Wells in his World Encyclopedia thesis attempts to forge a new "moving" common ground based on newly evolving knowledge based on distilling truth out of science. Shared history is obviously much easier to dispense and spread about compared to constantly keeping a growing population up to date with the forefront of science.
How could one carefully compose and juxtapose the two to have a stronger combined effect?
How could one distribute the effects evenly?
What does the statistical mechanics for knowledge management look like at the level of societies and nations?
-
I dislike isolated events anddisconnected details. I really hate state-ments, views, prejudices, and beliefsthat jump at you suddenly out of mid-air.
Wells would really hate social media, which he seems to have perfectly defined with this statement.

without a World En-cyclopedia to hold men's minds togetherin something like a common interpreta-tion of reality there is no hope whateverof anything but an accidental and transi-tory alleviation to any of our world trou-bles. As mankind is so it will remainuntil it pulls its mind together. And if itdoes not pull its mind together then I donot see how it can help but decline.Never was a living species more peril-ously poised than ours at the presenttime. If it does not take thoughtto endits present mental indecisiveness catastro-phe lies ahead. Our species may yet endits strange eventful history as just the last,the cleverest, of the great apes. Thegreat ape that was clever-but not cleverenough. It could escape from mostthings but not from its own mental con-fusion.
-
I believe thatin some such way as I have sketched, themental forces now largely and regrettablyscattered and immobilized in the univer-sities, the learned societies, research in-stitutions, and technical workers of theworld could be drawn together into areal directive world intelligence, and bythat mere linking and implementing ofwhat is known, human life as a wholecould be made much surer, stronger,bolder, and happier than it has ever beenup to the present time.
-
My impression is that human brains arevery much of a pattern, that under thesame conditions they react in the sameway, and that were it not for tradition,upbringing, accidents of circumstance,and particularly of accidental individualobsessions, we should find ourselves-since we all face the same universe-muchmore in agreement than is superficiallyapparent. We speak different languagesand dialects of thought and can even attimes catch ourselves flatly contradictingone another in words while we are doingour utmost to express the same idea.How often do we see men misrepresent-ing one another in order to exaggerate adifference and secure the gratification ofan argumentative victory!
We're far more alike than we imagine says Wells. Most of our difference is nitpicking for the sake of argument itself rather than actual meaning.
-
They don't want their intimate convic-tions turned over and examined, and itis unfortunate that the emphasis put
upon minor differences by men of science and belief in their strenuous search for the completest truth and the exactest expression sometimes gives color to this sort of misunderstanding.
This emphasis on minor differences is exactly what many anti-science critics have done. See examples with respect to evolution and climate science denial.
-
This Wo;Id Encyclopedia would bethe mental background of every intelli-gent man in the world.
Who, here, defines intelligence?
How would comparative anthropology between societies view such an effort? Would all societies support such an endeavor?
-
very carefully assem-bled with the approval of outstandingauthorities in each subject, carefully col-lated and edited, and critically presented.It would be not a miscellany but a con-centration, a clarification and a synthesis.
Compare this with Hutchins and Adler's solution undertaken just a few years following this beginning in the early 1940s and finally published in 1952: The Great Books of the Western World.
These books speak toward the idea of living well and understanding mankind, but don't have the same deeply edited and critical synthesis viewpoint.
-
It is science and not men of sciencethat we want to enlighten and animateour politics and rule the world.
-
Can scientific knowledge and specializedthought be brought into more effectiverelation to general affairs?
-
There is no dignityyet in human history. It would be purecomedy if it were not so often tragic, 'sofrequently dismal, generally dishonora-ble, and occasionally quite horrible.

In his ideas for a "mental clearing house" Wells was probably influenced by "Die Brucke" and its Goals for a World Information Clearing House.
-
Wells believed that technological advances such as microfilm could be utilized towards this end so that "any student, in any part of the world, would be able to sit with his projector in his own study at his or her convenience to examine any book, any document, in an exact replica" (p. 54).
This sounds a lot like Vannevar Bush's Memex, n'cest pas?

Важнейший предрассудок современного мировоззрения — это представление о духовном мире, как о такой же совокупности механизмов и законов их функционирования, как это имеет место в естественной науке.Это можно достаточно точно назвать духовным материализмом. Наука материалистична не потому, что она якобы признает примат материи над духом, а потому, что ей неведом дух. Она не видит то, что научная картина мира — это порождение духа, историческое по своей природе, и по той же природе вполне ограниченное. Она не видит, что возможно совершенно другое отношение к миру и к его источнику.

un allarme aereo
Air raid sirens were a common occurrence in Monowitz from the summer of 1944. Air raids gave prisoners a chance to escape, to meet and speak to fellow prisoners, to steal food, to gain some respite from their labours and the torment of the Kapos. Some prisoners welcomed the air raids as a sign that the Third Reich was obviously nearing its end. The air raids also frightened their tormentors, the SS guards.
There were large scale air attacks by the US Air Force against the I. G. Farben synthetic oil plant in Monowitz on 20 August, 3 September, 18 December and 26 December 1944, and on 19 January 1945, the day after the beginning of the evacuation of the camp. During the raid of 20 August, seventy-five prisoners were killed and a hundred and fifty injured; on 3 September, three hundred people, including SS and prisoners, were killed or injured. The high number of prisoner casualties was in part due to I. G. Farben employees forbidding prisoners to take cover in makeshift shelters.

Passò una SS in bicicletta
This sentence suggests Sunday afternoon bicycle rides and walks with family in bourgeois pre-war Germany. Levi’s subsequent use of the SS man’s first name in the next sentence (‘È Rudi’) also suggests a relatively relaxed atmosphere, as if Levi sees a friend on that Sunday afternoon ride or walk.
The picture painted of a quant Sunday afternoon bicycle ride is highly ironic. By 1943, Germany was struggling to keep its armed forces and economy operating. There was a serious lack of fuel for the vehicles of the Wehrmacht and the factories of the Third Reich. Resort was made to the use of the horse and bicycle for transport, wood gas for powering automobiles, and, above all, there was rationing. Synthetic oil production was seen as an alternative to overcome the lack of access to natural resources, including oil. I. G. Farben, the giant German chemical conglomerate, took the decision in 1941 to build a synthetic oil plant at the village of Monowitz, near Auschwitz, utilising the slave labour from the Auschwitz camps and the local abundance of coal and water. As the war progressed and the fuel shortage worsened, the importance of the synthetic oil plant at Auschwitz surged. This was visible in the increasing number of Auschwitz prisoners assigned to work at the I. G. Farben plant, and the creation of a Monowitz sub camp of Auschwitz in 1942 and, subsequently, an independent camp, Auschwitz III–Monowitz in 1943. By 1944, ten thousand Auschwitz prisoners were housed at the concentration camp Auschwitz III–Monowitz, working solely for I. G. Farben.
‘Rudi’ is riding his bike as there is little petrol for vehicles, even for the SS and the concentration camps, and even at the plant supposedly producing synthetic oil.

Ollendorff's name is used as an epithet in H.G. Wells' The Island of Doctor Moreau:[10] "Yesterday he bled and wept," said the Satyr. "You never bleed nor weep. The Master does not bleed or weep." "Ollendorffian beggar!" said Montgomery, "you'll bleed and weep if you don't look out!"

Что такое мысль, мышление? В этом вопросе иногда возникает путаница, поскольку мыслью называют все проявления интеллектуальных способностей. Т.е. любое думание, любую внутреннюю речь называют мыслью. В таком случае мысль свободна в той же мере, как движения больного ДЦП, иначе говоря, там хаос. Но у человека в принципе есть такая способность как мышление. Объяснить что такое мышление сложно в двух словах. Важно, что мышление у человека встречается (как говорил Г.П.) так же редко, как танцы у лошадей.): Мышление свободно, так как оно опирается только на свое собственное содержание. Другое дело, что человеку обычно сложно различить – когда он мыслит, а когда просто думает. Мышление связано с думанием, оно как бы выхватывает его смыслы и делает их своим содержанием – если, конечно, мышление происходит. Я знаю только один способ «держать» мышление – это наблюдение мышления, это очень сложный прием – мыслить и одновременно наблюдать мышление, но он возможен, потому что мышление мы осуществляем полностью сами. Мыслит не голова, не мозг – мыслит «Я», поэтому мышление прозрачно для наблюдения, в нем нет скрытого (как, например, в вещах). Но наблюдение мышления – это способность, которая требует очень большой тренировки. Нормальный человек может наблюдать только такое мышление, которое происходит очень медленно и последовательно, по шажкам. Но тогда он получает замечательный опыт свободы и достоверности, доверия к мышлению. Если этого опыта нет, или он не осознан, то человек обычно не доверяет мышлению, для него более достоверно чувство.Еще одно важное свойство мышления – это то, что в мышлении люди могут иметь абсолютное взаимопонимание – очевидно, что мышление как говорят психологи «интерсубъективно». Поэтому в мышлении возможна полная свобода общения.

Центральная идея философии свободы – это мышление, как фундамент всего развития человека и человечества. Именно это отличает антропософию от различных визионерских и авторитарных оккультных систем.Поэтому мне представляется необычайно важным при совместном обсуждении «Философии свободы» не просто составить себе общее представление о содержании этой книги, а работать над ней так, чтобы это соответствовало ее содержанию, а именно – это содержание нужно научиться делать предметом мышления, того мышления о котором пишет Штайнер в этой книге.Ограничиться обсуждением разных мнений, образов и ассоциаций которые возникают при чтении этой книги – это означает совсем не понять того, о чем там идет речь. Потому, что у каждого есть свои представления, мифы, образы того, что такое мышление, и очень легко впасть в иллюзию того, что именно об этом говорит Штайнер.Он сам пишет:«Не надо только смешивать две вещи: "обладание мысленными образами" и переработку мыслей посредством мышления. Мысленные образы могут вставать в душе подобно сновидениям или как смутные внушения. Но это не есть мышление»

Истина, позаимствованная от другого скептиком, который с этого момента стал верующим, не обладает духовными свойствами истины, родившейся в размышлении. Это истина внешняя и застывшая. Она приобретает влияние на человека, но неспособна проникнуть в самую глубину его существа, составить с ним одно целое. Живой является только та истина, которая порождена мышлением
-
Семена скептицизма пустили ростки. В самом деле, современный человек уже не имеет духовного доверия к самому себе. За самоуверенной внешностью он скрывает большую внутреннюю неуверенность. Несмотря на огромную производительность в материальной области, он в своем развитии остановился на уровне ребенка, так как оставил без употребления свою способность к мышлению. Когда-нибудь покажется непостижимым, что наше поколение, столь высоко проявившее себя научными открытиями и изобретениями, в духовном отношении могло пасть так низко, чтобы отказаться мыслить.
-
Дух века навязывает современному человеку скептическое отношение к его собственному мышлению, чтобы сделать его восприимчивым к истинам, которые он получает из авторитетных источников. Всем этим постоянным влияниям человек не может оказать должного сопротивления, так как он представляет собой сверхзанятое и разбросанное существо, у которого нет сил сосредоточиться. Более того, многообразная материальная зависимость влияет на его умственные способности таким образом, что в конце концов он теряет веру в право иметь собственные мысли.

Engineers from those groups formed the core of the Space Task Group (STG), NASA’s first official foray into space research, and Katherine, who had worked with many of them since coming to Langley, “came along with the program” as the NACA became NASA later that year. While not a member of the STG, she developed an interest in calculating trajectories of spacecraft and satellites.
I loved that she had ambition, determination, and developed interests in the areas that she was curious about.

«Согласно онтологии коллективной мыследеятельности отдельный человек не обладает достаточной энергией для развития; для этого он должен рассматриваться в качестве компонента более сложных, коллективно-коммуникативных, кооперативных систем и процессов. Коллективная мыследеятельность и есть та минимальная онтологическая единица, по отношению к которой может быть поставлен вопрос об индивидуальном развитии и самоопределении. Коллективная мыследеятельность полагается как синхронизированный комплекс пяти процессов: мышления, понимания, действования, коммуникации и рефлексии»

J.H. Plumb once showed me a set of Swift’s works given him by G.M. Trevelyan; it had originally belonged to Macaulay, who had drawn a line all the way down the margin of every page as he read it, no doubt committing the whole to memory.
A line in the margin doesn't fit with any mnemotechniques I'm aware of, so it's more likely a method to indicate what he had read, and up to what point. Likely not an indicator of storage to memory.

Хочу еще раз высказать, на мой взгляд, ключевой тезис о возможности духовного возрождения в современном мире: Для такого возрождение необходимо становление небольших сообществ, иначе говоря, рабочих групп, в которых будет строиться, развиваться возможность диалога, то есть взаимного понимания и участия в духовном и, в первую очередь, мыслительном общении, преодолевающем границы эгоцентризма его участников. Это принципиально не может быть общением, диалогом, в котором участники изначально согласны друг с другом. Наоборот, чем больше разнообразие и противоположность субъективных точек зрения и убеждений, тем более значимо усилие, направленное на возможность диалога. Христианская любовь состоит не в том, чтобы принимать близких по убеждениям, а в способности слышать Другого именно, как другого, а не как свое нарциссическое отражение. Только в этом случае диалог имеет общечеловеческое, а, точнее говоря, человечески духовное значение, а не значение для секты последователей одной идеологии. Только такая группа изначально воспроизводит и преодолевает современную разобщённость и нарциссический индивидуализм.

Most academics continue to insist that it is still – barely – physically possible to limit warming to no more than 1.5°C. There are strong incentives to stay behind the invisible line that separates academia from wider social and political concerns, and so to not take a clear position about this.But we need to clearly acknowledge now that warming will exceed 1.5°C because we are losing vital reaction time by entertaining fantastic scenarios. The sooner we get real about our current situation and what it demands, the better.
Slight chance. We need nonlinear solutions and to find all the leverage points, social tipping points and idling capacity we can.:

En somme, les études sur la communication des élèves atteints d’autisme permettent de mettre en évidence l’importance d’un contexte riche en stimulations appropriées (sons et images), mais également une évidente « stabilité » de l’information à décoder, le suivi des émotions des personnages, le rôle de l’imitation dans les apprentissages. Ces résultats encouragent donc l’usage d’outils informatiques adéquats pour améliorer la communication sociale chez les enfants atteints d’autisme.
L'association de deux sujets qui n'ont pas de corrélation vérifiéé, revient dans la conclusion en contradiction avec la conclusion de l'étude de Ramdoss, S et al.

Nous allons montrer par une courte analyse de quelques études l’impact du travail éducatif informatisé dans l’apprentissage de la communication sociale chez des enfants atteints d’autisme.
En contradiction avec l'hypothèse :
Results suggest that CBI should not yet be considered a researched-based approach to teaching communication skills to individuals with ASD. However, CBI does seem a promising practice that warrants future research. Les résultats suggèrent que le CBI ne devrait pas encore être considéré comme un approche fondée sur la recherche pour enseigner les compétences en communication aux personnes ayant Troubles du Spectre Autistique. Cependant, le CBI semble être une pratique prometteuse qui justifie des recherches futures.

На человеческом существовании порой лежит и отпечаток того, что можно, пожалуй, назвать отчаянием. Человек действует - читает, сердится, трудится, исследует, добивается чего-то, зарабатывает деньги - и в последнем отчаянии (иногда безотчетном) он говорит себе, что все это как целое не имеет никакого смысла и, если задается вопрос о смысле целого, то будет правильно заглушить его и отвергнуть как не имеющий ответа и потому бессмысленный".

This fundamental truth (expressed in economic notation as r > g, or "return on capital is greater than economic growth") means that "meritocracy" is a lie: the richest people in a market economy aren't the people who do the best work, it's the people who started off rich.
Thomas Piketty's r > g shows that meritocracy is a lie in that the richest people aren't the ones that do the best or most productive work, but simply those who start of rich.

It could create incentives for action by conditioning a portion of funds going to states in any future relief packages on states’ adherence to the measures
Why did this not happen? I feel like it isn’t the federalist system in general that are failing us— it’s the leaders of the system. Why did congress not make a playbook and create incentives for states to follow them? This reminds me of how the drinking age became 21 in every state from the funding of the highways.

Lacking strong federal leadership to guide a uniform response, the United States quickly fulfilled the World Health Organization’s prediction that it would become the new epicenter of Covid-19.
I wonder if a democrat was in office when covid hit if we would have stronger federal leadership. Would we have been in a state of emergency if someone who believed in the facts of science wasn’t in office? I have trouble believing that there is nothing the president could have done to prevent covid from getting this out of hand.

Coming back to the two ‘FreeSync’ settings in the monitor OSD, they differ in the variable refresh rate range that they support. ‘Standard Engine’ supports 90 – 144Hz (90 – 119Hz via HDMI) whilst ‘Ultimate Engine’ gives a broader variable refresh rate range of 70 – 144Hz (62 – 119Hz via HDMI). We didn’t notice any adverse effects when using ‘Ultimate Engine’, so we’d suggest users simply stick to that option.
In my tests using Standard Engine, in combo with G-Sync Compatible Driver, I get more screen flickering during menus.

This ability to focus one’s attention is essential for effective performance of many of life’s necessary and daily activities, such as acquiring and using selected information; making and carrying out plans; and self-regulation of responses and behavior to meet desired goals (Kaplan & Kaplan, 1982). Direct attention is, therefore, an important cognitive skill required on a daily basis for students processing multiple sources of information, and working towards their academic goals at universities.
In contrast with the concept of "involuntary attention". Both types of attention utilize different sections of the brain and perform their tasks with incredible difference. Despite GSU students generally lacking a space to induce involuntary attention for rejuvination, I'd like to question and understand how our urban environment shapes the brains of our students differently than those with access to green spaces. How has prolonged direct attention created a difference in urban campus students compared to classic university students.

Attention Restoration Theory
defined as, "suggests that mental fatigue and concentration can be improved by time spent in, or looking at nature."
Regardless of the parks avaliable to GSU students, none seem to specifically meet the standards set by Kaplan to maximize benefit: "-Extent (the scope to feel immersed in the environment)
-Being away (providing an escape from habitual activities)

Immediatley avaliable green spaces within Atlanta hardly separate themselves from their own city envirlonment and meerly provide a small area recreational area rather than an escape. http://www.ecehh.org/research-projects/attention-restoration-theory-a-systematic-review/
In relation to GSU's severe lack of student avaliable green space, "The natural world has previously been depicted as a restorative environment that replenishes ones resources and urban environments such as cityscapes have been seen to potentially reduce attentional capacity."

“natural scenery employs the mind without fatigue and yet exercises it; tranquilizes it and yet enlivens it; and thus through the influence of the mind over the body, gives the effect of refreshing rest and reinvigorating to the whole system
This idea sums up the focus of this paper; the impact of natural spaces on the mind of students and how open green space revigorates mental fatigue. Many large closed campus schools (UGA, Georgia Tech, Berry, etc) feature the beauty and vigor of their campus' alongside their academic triumphs. The campus of a university must allow itself to create differentiated spaces based on necessities for relaxation versus work. Georgia State struggles with this concept by consistently immersing it's students within a bustling city life with fairly little down time.

open spaces have not been systematically examined for their potential in replenishing cognitive functioning for attentional fatigued students
What quality of open spaces replenishes cognitive function? How does this tie into Georgia States "cramped" campus?
REVISION & RESPONSE: open, specifically natural, spaces replenish cognitive function by relaxing the brain and thought processes of a student. These spaces are less visually intensive than the typical information overload of a student's standard day. Georgia State, despite a severe lack of open space, does offer Hurt and Woodruff parks as alternative green areas to relax within. This lack of open space is an important issue within the built environment of GSU, as we lack a scientifically backed attribute of student success that most closed campus universities can offer.

increased technology use within today’s multitasking society is likely to hijack a student’s attentional resource placing her/him at risk of underachieving academic learning goals and undermining success at a university
Arguably bold claim; regardless of backing source for information, how do students perform on average with an explosion of technological progress over the past 20 years compared to before smartphones were widely popularized?
Technology absolutely depletes student's "attentional resource", yet we see an increased trend in technological innovation within classroom spaces; is this setting students up for failure by providing distractions from their work?
Technology has arguably also greatly enhanced the students ability to learn, share resources, and more accurately/timely locate information beneficial to their success rather than simply create distraction.

. Today’s university must be resilient spaces in which the learning environment encompasses more than technology upgrades, classroom additions, and its academic buildings – in fact, the entire campus, including its open spaces, must be perceived as a holistic learning space that provides a holistic learning experience
Does GSU conform to this standard? Is it necessary/true? How does GSU make up for a lack of "open spaces" utilizing it's built environment to establish a holistic learning space?
Georiga State strays from Scholl/Gulwadi's ideals; establishing an interconnected learning environment through downtown Atlanta by creating a community of students who not only share like minded goals but also campus space together. Although the city lacks the natural relaxation nature can provide to alleviate stress, I believe students find solace in the student body culture of the university.

increased technology use within today’s multitasking society is likely to hijack a student’s attentional resource placing her/him at risk of underachieving academic learning goals and undermining success at a university
What role does technology play in the promotion or degradation of our learning and how does this tie in with how our attention is directed?
Revision + Response: As technology becomes increasingly intertwined with all aspects of life, including education, concern should be raised as to how being consistently connected to an online space not only distracts us, but prevents natural attention rejuvination from students specifically, furthering levels of fatigue. As the evolution of education ties itself closer to technology and reliance on online spaces, it seems like the system is setting itself up for failure in the long run by breaking the division between educational spaces and natural/recreational ones.

Learning is a lifelong and year-round pursuit, which takes place throughout the campus, not just fragmented indoors in designated instructional spaces
This is extremely important to the general thesis of the piece and summarizes all the information before this statement well. How is learning facilitated outside of classrooms on campus? What creates a "holistic" learning space? How does a campus teach outside of it's classrooms?
Revision + Response: A holistic learning space/experience details the entire daily process of a student's day, and their interactions in space between classrooms + nature. The process of learning expands beyond taking in information; internalizing ideas through natural experiences. Holistic learning experiences create a balance between work, extra curricular activities, and student social lives which allows them to continue education through an optimal, healthy process.

we propose that the natural landscape of a university campus is an attentional learning resource for its students.
Thesis statement of the piece. What is an "attentional learning resource"? What is a "natural landscape" How do these concepts interact with one another.
Revision + Response: The natural landscape of a university refers to the "green space" of a campus and it's relationship with the buildings that surround it. The natural landscape being an attentional learning resource outlines how learning and attention are facilitated outside of a classroom; the greenspace of a campus rejuvinates the mind allowing for students to relax but also mentally prepares them to continue their learning experience with less fatigue. The natural landscape of a campus is integral to the continued learning experience of it's students as it subconciously decompiles stress/depression.

Direct attention requires mental effort and cognitive control for an individual to sustain focus and prevent distracting stimuli from interfering with an intended activity
Describes what I am currently struggling with
-
Many university founders desired to create an ideal community that was a place apart, secluded from city distraction but still open to the larger community, enabling their students and faculty to devote unlimited time and attention for classical or divinity learning, personal growth, and free intellectual inquiry
How does this relate to the "perfect" built environment for learning? How does GSU defy these standards? How does GSU refute this claim

The cook is Joe or Carl or Al, hot in a white coat and apron, beady sweat on white forehead, below the white cook's cap; moody, rarely speaking, looking up for a moment at each new entry. Wiping the griddle, slapping down the hamburger. He repeats Mae's orders gently, scrapes the griddle, wipes it down with burlap. Moody and silent. Mae is the contact, smiling, irritated, near to outbreak; smiling while her eyes look on past—unless for truck drivers.
Although cooking is typically a female role, here we see the male taking on this job as it is the main function of the work place.

direct and indirect attention and restoration
What I am curious about is how indirect attention and restoration can be used to create new college campuses? What does that entail?
-
One way to examine this potential is to consider the entire campus with its buildings, roads and natural open spaces as a well-networked landscape system that supports student learning experiences.
I totally agree with this statement but how exactly are they going to do it?
-
we propose that the natural landscape of a university campus is an attentional learning resource for its students.
This sentence is consider the thesis statement. It talks about how the landscape of a university campus could effect the learning of a student. Which connects to the whole essay.
