Art and science, they are one in the same and go hand in hand. Art is a science, and science is an art. When you think of science, what do you see? Without pictures and drawings, we wouldn't be able to reach some of the huge breakthroughs in technology or science. We wouldn't know what cancer cells look like or solar systems look like, without the design of telescopes and microscopes. Design allowed us to be able to look at things trillions of miles away, or on slides.

I transferred high schools my senior year. I had attended a small, sheltered, regimented K-12 charter school for eleven years and decided to transfer for my senior year of high school in order to take more AP classes and continue to challenge myself more academically. The idea of "Two Cultures" came to mind here because I had gone to this small charter school for so long where I knew everyone, yet was about to enter a large public school, where I only knew a few, were no uniforms, and was less regimented. They were two completely different cultures from the outside, but from experience they were not all that different. The students were the same, their diploma just had a different name on it.

There are "Two Cultures" here on campus too, and they are formed by stereotypes. There are student athletes, and regular students. In my lectures, the groups sit on opposite sides, but there is always a mixed group in the middle. Is that group that sits in the middle the "Third Culture"? Are they that mix of two groups that appear different, yet are driven by many of the same things? I believe they are. They are the ones that realize that everyone in that room is there to learn. It is just like when we were in elementary school and all of the boys would sit together and then all of the girls or like in separated boys and girls schools. The third culture always exists though of those who don't care what your stereotype is, because they look past it.
