First Week in Class

By far this is the hardest class that I have taken at Bellevue University. These are my last three classes and I am ready to finish my bachelors degree. I am taking this class because it is a degree requirement. I am not sure what to expect in the following weeks but I am sure that it will involve a lot of corresponding with my classmates. I think the university requires this class to heighten the awareness of issues and traditions in the western world. Some of the stories that were read this week were really enlightening but a common theme was that they apply to situations today and they call for reform of those situations. I am in the military and traditions are a big part of the military. Crossing the equator, crossing the date line, getting your sea legs are all traditions and rites of passage that a civilian may feel uncomfortable with but are parts of military service. I think my views are unique in the fact that I tell it like it is. I use book knowledge but I use common sense first and that is what guides me. Ths course is going to be interesting and I look forward to the next 10 weeks with all my classmates.
