For this colloquium course, I am hoping to have my eyes opened right now to the world we live in. In the first class, I found the video to be fascinating as it made me aware of things that I didn’t know before. There are some people who like to turn their backs on the world’s problems and pretend as if they aren’t happening, but that isn’t me. I am someone who enjoys taking part in making a difference, so I feel as if this class will be beneficial in the sense that I will do my best to make issues known to other people and spread the word. Yet, as someone who has a future goal to work with marine mammals in the future, I did not like how it was told that polar bears are done for. However, this does happen to be the truth, and we are to blame for it. The honesty that will be brought out in this class is something to look forward to. People need to face the harsh reality of the issues we’re facing. Being in my fourth year here at FGCU, I have heard some awful things about University Colloquium, but fortunately, the first day of this class made me realize that this will be an experience like no other, and it didn’t seem as if it would have the same bad experiences that other students had in their individual courses. I am eager to learn what will be taught in this course, and am pleased that bigger issues will be brought about rather than miniscule issues even though those are important as well. I am also looking forward to the field trips as these are places I have not visited before, and I enjoy being in the outdoors exploring.
