3-4-2013

Today we had a guess speaker and it was quite exciting to hear the things he spoke about. He said that there will be classes in the near future that would be offered abroad! I have never been outside the country so i am very interested as how that will play out. Why not take the opportunity and adapt to a different cultural all while learning? I am pleased to hear that Richard Bland College is expanding, that is exactly what this school needs. Maybe more people will be attracted to this school.

Family


Family is our next argumentative topic. This is a broad topic and we came up with a lot of subtopics which took some of the pressure off my back. I still have not chosen my subtopic but i do have a lot to choose from so it may take me a while to pin down exactly what it is i want to write about.

Argumentative Papers

Argumentative papers are a pain! when choosing a topic, the writer always have to look at every aspect to prove that point and that mean a lot of research and sources and that's not always easy. I chose this class to become a well rounded writer, I hope to do just that b/c researching and siting isn't my best.

Our 12:00 class

I think our class is really outspoken and there are a lot of strong voices that sometimes overlap one another. Because of this, our class goes by so fast b/c everyone is very opinionated. I love the fact that everyone is comfortable enough to say whatever comes to mind.

Peer Review

When we do our student advisory, in some ways it is helpful but i feel that taking the professors advice would be much more effective b/c it is coming from a professionals view. In other ways, it is helpful b/c you get to hear other peoples arguments and outlooks on such controversial topics. Also, you are reading your paper out loud so it is easier to hear any errors.
