College Trends
PICS is the only college-selection software program that ASSESSES a student's personality and then DETERMINES the ideal characteristics of a college suited to the individual. This is not an inventory in which a student indicates preferred student body size, living environment and campus attitudes. In fact, there are very few questions related to college at all.

Science Bulletins: Our Ancient Relatives Born with Flexible Skulls
A new study of the skull of an early hominin child provides a better understanding of the evolutionary timeline for modern human skulls-and brains. The skulls of modern humans are highly flexible at birth so they can both fit through a narrow birth canal and expand to hold a brain that grows substantially in early life. When researchers scanned the skull of the Taung child (Australopithicus africanus), they found structural features similar to those in the flexible skulls of modern infants. The
