The @JLIA_StuCo election was the highlight of my day. Students campaign speeches were well written, practiced and executed at a high level. The standard @JLewisInvictus is set.

#DidYouKnowThat color schemes with various values of white, including off whites and grays, when used on the walls within a learning environment can be perceived “institutional-like” from its origins of use in medically sanitary and hygienic oriented facilities?
Despite the vast amount of classrooms that have traditionally-colored white walls, values of white used on classroom walls give the learning environment the psychological appear- ance of being sterile and depressing, and can also cause glare, eyestrain and discourage learning.
More evidence repeating Cheskin’s findings has occurred throughout the decades, however, values of white have withstood these types of publicized cautions, and have somehow managed to remain as a design staple on the classroom walls of our educational interior architecture.
In 1947, Louis Cheskin, founder of the Color Research Institute of America, publi- cized his research discoveries as public warnings when he expressed, “White walls, as we know, are an optical strain and a psychological hazard.”
Interior educational environments with white values of walls are known to induce anxiety, dissipate focus and concentration, and be a foreshadowing to petulance in end users.
