Random Televisions
I was walking down the back corridor of the College of Education this morning when I saw it - a television mounted over one of the classroom doors. Curiouser, it had a static screen: a green background for salmon-colored text reading “Welcome to the College of Education” (no punctuation; I was rather hoping for an exclamation point. If one is going to go through that sort of trouble, at least pretend to be enthusiastic)!
What is the point of this television “broadcast?”
Further, why is there a TV anyway? It seems rather pointLESS to put it outside a classroom like that. It reminds me of lines for rides at DisneyWorld, where they feel you should be entertained by their insipid channel while you wait an absymally long time to ride Space Mountain.

Hi,
Television is the greatest media of communication among students.Through it a student can easily learn his lesson with the help of graphical vision.
