images for
analysis
The following links take you to images, audio files, text pages,
magazine ads, and video clips. In many cases, you will need a RealAudio Player (or
Windows MediaPlayer or QuickTime Player) and a reasonably fast Internet connection to
access the files. For copyright reasons, some of the linked sites are available only
on networked computers on the AASU campus. Intended for discerning adults prepared
to conduct critical analyses, some of these images and clips are decidely unpleasant;
needless to say, they do not reflect the attitudes of Armstrong Atlantic State University,
its employees or its students.
