Meet Samantha Myer, take one look at her and assume by the photograph on the top that she is your typical materialistic, rude, student. Society takes one look at her and places her under the stereotype of your "typical rich girl." The shoes, the dress, the bag, and the sunglasses say it all. Says what? Says that she doesn't care about anyone but herself? I don't think so... Yes, Sam might own all those things, but in reality it does not reflect the person she is. In reality, Sam sells scarves for her friends company and gives the proceeds to charity. Also in Sam’s spare time she volunteers and helps around the Tucson community. You should not always judge a book by its cover. If you got to know Sam, you would stop judging. I can assure it.

Wow the idea you guys chose really hits home especially in the college community. I appreciate that you looked at it from a different angle in defense of those that are stereotyped. Everyone is guilty of doing it one way or another but this blog also stated facts and ideals that these people really do have, not just what meets the eye.

I connect with this image because I feel that being a college student is a very judgmental time in our lives and people do not give time or the care to seek out a person and find out who they really are, instead we just judge 'the book by it's cover' like you said. This image was perfect to start off your blog. Great job!!
