the proofs in that pudding stuff

     just like everyone else on this blog, I too am excited about the project. Not really for the fact that we're trying to find a correlation between grades and learning, but simply bc of the fact that we're doing something different from every other class. im excited to see if grades really do reflect actual knowledge.
     i would love to see if our class, which is not neccesarily focused on grades, could actually debate and have more knowledge of a religious topic then another class whose focus is on grades. this would definitely prove that grades are not the only means by which to gauge someones intelligence.
     so lets do well on this project of ours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

change?

     changing ourself to change others is just an easy thing to say but such a hard thing to do. first we must become who we want to be to make the change possible. we've been who we are for about 20 years now. maybe its too late for us to change so easily, or maybe being in college at our age is the perfect time to change to who we want to be.
     College is supposed to be all about trying to find out WHAT you're going to do for the rest of your life. Cant it also be about WHO you're going to be for the rest of your life. we should start, now, to figure out if we want to be somebody that changes what we see wrong or change so that the person we are is not affected by the wrong we see.
     we see things we dont like everyday. in our own lives, on campus, in our country, on this planet. we see the big problems and think we cant have any impact in changing them, but lets start small. if there's something we dont like about ourselves or our college, those can easily be changed. i think if we start by making small changes we can end up making the big changes
