News writing instructor Stacey Duke and I team teach the College Publications class for The Hindsonian student newspaper. Our first assignment in the class was to have our students divide into teams, come with a question to ask students and put together their answers along with the photos.

See versus look
According to Merriam-Webster's dictionary, online at www. Merriam-Webster.com, the definition for "see" includes the phrases, to perceive by the eye; to come to know; to be aware of. And the definition for "look" includes, to exercise the power of vision.
I would interpret these terms and actions, in regards to using ours eyes to view, as two different ways and depths of viewing a photograph.
"Looking'' is taking in a quick and overall view, while ''seeing'' is actually engaging in finding the details of the photograph, movie, or visual.
Take the vintage photo below, for instance, of Hinds Community College from 1917, when it was just starting out as Hinds County Agricultural High School. Look at the photo and think about what is in the image. This is a photo that I scanned and plan to colorize for use in 2017, 100 years celebration.

The second most exciting day at Hinds Community College — after my favorite event, graduation — is the first day of fall classes in August. We get a lot of fresh, eager — and lost — faces ready to start their educational careers. And it’s “all hands on deck” for the entire college. Everyone does whatever is necessary to help.
