Journal 19


-Reflect upon how you made meaning out of this colloquium class experience from a personal, academic, and relationship to your chosen major or future profession.  

I think that personally I made meaning out of this colloquium class by trying to really make changes in my life that do/ will in fact make a big impact. I think that the number one thing that I learned is that the time to really change habits and help change the world is now. Not tomorrow, or next week, but now. Mostly because we really just don’t have and can’t afford to sit around and wait for everything to just “work itself out”. I think that academically this class shouldn’t be as long as it is and grading for this class should just be either pass or fail, and not actually receive a letter grade. I think this because how are you going to grade someone of learning about sustainability, especially if they don’t believe in it. I know that if I didn’t believe in it I would think that learning about it is being forced upon me.  Actually, even though I do believe in sustainability I think this class is still for upon us, but I regress. I think that when I get older and become a marketing manager some of the topics covered in class will help me to a certain degree. Overall, I understand why we have to take this class, but think that it should be shorter like a six week class and that we should also get a pass fail grade on it.
