I must say that this class
I must say that this class was much different from anything I expected. When I signed up for Neurobiology and Behavior I expected to learn about the different parts of the brain and their function, to be tested on labeling where the hypothalamus is located, etc. I ended up with a philosophy class that's main lesson came from a secluded poet who was probably crazy. But in the long run I much preferred our philosophical debated over what I thought would be mindless memorization. I think that I've come to the conclusion that Emily Dickinson was right in her poem. The unit on sight was the real turning point in my mind that made me believe her ideas. The brain clearly manipulates how we see the world. It fills in the missing pieces and interprets the wave lengths of light to give us color vision. Sight is the main function with which we each interpret our reality, which is why this unit really stuck out for me. If the brain can control our reality, then I think it is definitely fair to say that the equals behavior.
