Introduction

 Hello, I am a McBride scholar with sophomore standing.  The piece of technology that has the most impact on me is the internet.  I grew up with a word processer and a library card.  The amount of information I am now able to access from home or even my phone is astounding.  At times it seems a bit too much, or at least too much trivial or incomplete information.  Plus, I must admit, as much as I love my computer, I still feel the need to keep a hard copy of almost everything.  There are many new technologies I have not tried, but I am always interested to learn about them.
