Extra Blog 1

Okay so this blog isn’t about media so much as it is about technology. Which aren’t the same things. My future career plan is to become a forensic psychologist. I have wanted to follow this career path for many years (not just because I watch CSI). Anyways, I am taking an anthropology class and we go into a little bit of forensic anthropology. This is really cool. We are learning how to tell the age and gender of deceased people by their skeletons! They have amazing ways of preserving skeletons now a day. I just think it’s really cool how far we have come with technology. According to an article I found called “Forensic Anthropology is used in…” written by Carl Walker, recent advances in technology have made forensic anthropology a very popular field of study. The use of new microscopic technology has made it incredibly easy to get the tiniest details at any crime scene. I was really impressed by the things I learned in my anthropology class and I strongly recommend that if anyone is interested in forensics (like I am) then take a forensic anthropology class!
