Week 5

I really enjoyed the presentation that the dean gave. I was really happy he said that critical thinkers come to universities to think but he did not sugar cot it that sometimes you need to just go with the flow and not piss people off by thinking critically all the time. However I feel he should have kept his political opinions to himself especially if he is saying he wants to take away everybody’s second amendment right to bear arms. Then he started to go into another topic that a strongly disagree with and that is religion and saying that Jesus was just a “wonder bright dude, challenging fate”. I understand we are supposed to let go of some of our “most cherished ideas” but religion is a very important part of many people’s lives and making these statements in a speech is sickening to me. In fact religion has saved my life and given me sanity when I needed it most so I was angered with his debauchery of my religion. Other than that I was happy to hear about the sunset cruise that was going to take place and I think that would be a very cool and interesting experience to par take in with a date. Unfortunately I was not able to go to the library visit because I was home with my parents. I ate some great home cooked food and was just happy to be able to be back home in a nice calm environment.
