"What an impact my internship at Project Look Sharp had on me and my career/life path, igniting a passion for media literacy which evolved into a passion for health literacy.

“[Media Construction of War] is an excellent teaching tool, preparing students for a critical analysis of the media. It does not preach, but by asking provocative questions it leads students to think carefully and re-examine traditional ideas. In short, it fosters independent thinking, which, after all, should be the chief objective of a good education.”

-- Howard Zinn, Historian
Author of “A People's History of the United States"
