Dear Students... welcome to this summer edition of ERS. In this term, we are wide open in the types of themes and ideas that we can explore. We will read about Aung San Suu Kyi, the Democracy leader from Burma. We will read about Dave Brubeck, the jazz music legend who sadly passed away this past year. We will look at an essay about women moving up and demanding higher salaries. We will also look at an essay about the dangers of Yoga... you can see that our topics are wide in range, which may help you to find something that you haven't thought about before and would like to think about more.Also, you all come from a wide range of majors and study interests. In this first journal blog, I would like you to explain your major, why you chose this major, and what you hope to get from it. This will help me to know your interests and work to relate what we do in class to your own studies.
I'm looking forward to the term. Make sure that you include you ID# in your blog post. Aj. M
