I feel like the recordings I made for this soundmap differ from what is advertised about the town and campus because I focused a lot on what things are like during the night time when classes are not in session and the decision making skills of so many students drastically change. The school always advertises what #1 educational programs and facilities are offered in their brochure and the night life on campus is never really talked about much. Although many people who live on campus don't drink or party, it is an enormous part of student life that nobody talks about. I feel like the university couldn't talk about it if they wanted to because that almost seems like encouraging the party and bar aspect of the university. Another element of this project was the awareness that I developed for the everyday sounds that are more often than not neglected. The main thing that stuck with me from the readings from this chapter is Ceraso's article when she talks about listening with the whole body. That definitely affected how I carried out completing this project.
