Last week in class we first discussed our experiences in the Tunnel of Oppression. It seemed we all had similar experiences that the experience left a bit of a sad feeling on us. I think it was an accurate display of reality, but that many of us do not see this kind of treatment toward […]
I thought last class section was interesting in the topics we discussed. I liked learning more about the various clubs on campus. I remember seeing some of them on campus during transfer orientation day and remember actually signing up for the track club (mostly for the free t-shirt and water bottle, but also I was […]
The last class discussions started with Julian explaining to us the importance of communicating with the right academic adviser. I like the fact that he pointed out that you can not always rely on an academic adviser to know their stuff as it pertains to you and he provided a good personal experience of exactly […]
I wasn’t able to make it to class last Friday because of a knee surgery I had two days prior to that class. My surgery went better than expected, as I did not have to have the major ligament reconstruction as the doctor had expected to do. I still had a major meniscus repair […]

The questions Julian prepared for us were interesting in the different ways we can handle a particular problem or situation. I liked his Wright brothers analogy of how despite the brothers lack of education and funding, they still overcame adversity, and built […]
Reflecting on last Fridays class, I enjoyed the different topics we covered and discussed. Writing down my goals and sealing them in an envelope was a first for me, I believe. I liked the idea that it made me think hard about what some of my most important goals are. I think it helped me […]
The readings this week were interesting for me considering I have been an opponent of affirmative action since the day I learned what it meant. I had heard the words, affirmative action, pop up here and there when i was a teenager. I couldn’t believe people were being denied jobs and admissions to universities because […]
