Harrison Blog

Hello! My name is Harrison Page, and I am currently a student at High Point University. I am from and currently live in Guilford, Connecticut. At High Point I study strategic communications with a focus in marketing, and I plan to utilize this at my father's store. 

While at HPU I have the goal of soaking up all the information I can, and make an after college plan. While here at High Point I have loved meeting the new people and getting out of my comfort zone. Recently I have been my fraternities recruitment chair. This was a big obligation, yet one that I have enjoyed very much. 

After school I hope to be able to travel, while being able to work from my computer. I have always had the goal of going to every state, and believe after school is the perfect time to. My favorite food has to be lobster so the first stop will be Maine! Thank you for taking the time to read about me.

New Tech

 Through out the many presentations I was able to listen to, one stood out to me the most. This would be Dante Hammod's presentation on the typewriter. First the class was able to see what the first typewriter looked like, and how they functioned. They were huge to start, and were very slow compared to the modern typewriter, the computer. Yes the typewriter was a predecessor to the computer, and influenced the need to be able to continue typing. These early machines were only for the educated, or students because of the rare amount of them. The people who would use the typewriters would be called typist, and could be considered a profession! These machines were revolutionary, and made communication even easier and faster. People now could send printed notes, or make paperwork easier to see when typed out. Overall this machine was able to help the entire world because it made a want to further the typing technology. Now since that technology has blossomed I am able to write this on

Today in class we have been talking about industry pioneers, along with the total universe of potential adoption. The prime example to do would be the Apple Iphone. This was a revolutionary technology for the changing phone market. The first ones were revolutionizing the phone industry because it had a touch screen and camera. This is why the phone first started to catch on, and introduced the pioneers and early adopters. The phone furthered technological advancements by making it slimmer, and sleeker while making it faster. This is when the early majority has really shown. People in this time were trying to figure out if they wanted their phone to be able to do all these seemingly unnecessary tasks. Starting the transition into the majority when Apple really started to take initiative. The company added a face scanner, wireless charging and many other features to finally get a hold of late majority and laggards.  I believe the pioneers and early adopters caught onto this product becau

Anti war

 While perusing the provided sites from Dr. Smith one can immediately see the hate for war within these two websites, and justifiably so. One article that caught my eye from "The American Conservative" the bold headline "Making Another ISIS," really got me to think. The article goes on to explain how when the US occupies anywhere within the Middle East extremist groups tend to rise up. I believe America needs to stop trying to police the world, many countries are happy, and would rather not have the American military come into power. Many times when this happens and then the Americans leave creating a power vacuum quickly filled by terrible people.  Both of the websites that were provided seem very professional, and well established communities. This made it weird to myself that I have not even seen wither of them. I have the same ideals it seems, and everyone knows our phones are listening and then pushing what we want on ads. So I thought I would see something lik
