past senior seminars

i looked at stacey bumgarner's final project. hers was a story book called "the best of friends". it was about a group of people who lived in the forest that had never been exposed to technology nor any implications of modern-day society, they lived simply and one day someone in the forest saw a building poking up from far away, so they went to see what it was. sure enough, they found a city and everything horrible that was in it and basically taught the modern-day people how to live simply and they were all "the best of friends". it really was a very cute story with beautiful images and was a good way to introduce a child about the importance of simplicity and frugalness in a very materialistic world.
