Freshman seminar Overall 2010

Freshman seminar has given me a load of historical information that i can use in the future. When i learned of all of the things our ancestors did to improve society, i wonder why i don't see that eagerness and effort from people today. The broad question of how knowledge can be generated by various fields of study can be used to generate human social problems and challenges has allowed us to be more aware and explore problems and solutions. Through everyones presentations, i was aware of problems in our society and our school. Through the power points, I was constantly reminded of the legacy and importance that Howard holds. It has allowed me to make connections to myself and life as it is. This class made links to religion, race, the mind and body. It was a relief from the everyday study and makes you think critically, on a level that gives you the ability and responsibility to explore change, taking things that happened before christ and applying it to how the world is today. I appriciate the reality and self awareness that was brought to the class. In the end there was a connection from every class to the goal of creating a vision, solving the problem and continuing the legacy. Of course everyone appriciates the work being done through blogs. It allows us to freely express what we got out of each professor and not be limited to any requirements. Also, we can view the point of view from our peers and even respond to what we learned from them. I can take what i have learned from this course and apply it to my everyday knowledge.
