15. Reflection on Colloquium

Let's start off with stating, this is a course required by the University to PROMOTE/INFLUENCE/ILLUSTRATE the reasons for Sustainability.

This is done through Field Trips, "Class Work aka (Lectures)", and Readings.

Sustainability is EVERYWHERE now a days, all industries are leaning towards it.
"GOING GREEN"

Lectures/Group Work did provide some interesting facts, that I wouldn't of came across on my own. However, the "Larger" picture is much easier to see even without taking the class.
Field Trips - Showed me a side of Florida I would probably never seen on my own time, so they were rather interesting. Also, learned about the plant/animal life and the the history of this region, which I was not very familiar with being from New Jersey and a resident for only 3 years.

However, a "Gordon Rule" at this point. Seriously? A class that is REQUIRED, and considered an ELECTIVE, not part of any Major/Degree.

Should be considered a "Humanities" and allowed to be taken during the Freshmen and Sophomore levels rather than Junior/Senior.

Since a Humanities is REQUIRED as part of your AA.

Making it even more of a Reason to be REQUIRED. Perfect!

The Courseload:

4 Papers consisting of 4-6 Pages. Like stated before, who needs a "Gordon Rule" at this point.

Journal Entries

Reading + Quizzes (Which not all Classes do.)

I am currently taking 3 other classes with this class, and did 4x the amount of work in this class than the other 3. However, not a complete problem. Just very time consuming.

I enjoyed the Professor, Upbeat and Outgoing.
The workload is unnecessary at this point.

A Suggestion:

Final Project - On last week of classes, not on FINALS WEEK.

I hope you enjoyed the Entries, Take care.

Scott.
