So my group hasn’t done a whole lot of discussion. I, for one, have been incredibly overwhelmed with projects and tests. I’m currently writing this as the powerpoint I’ve been working on for 60% of the last two days is converted into a 35 minute long movie. It’s actually about a controversy, genetic modification. But the conversion process is really slow and it’s starting to concern me that the progress bar has barely moved.
My group has decided that we want to do something close to home, perhaps something college related. We did decide that we don’t want to do anything related to Sandusky or Paterno, although I could rant for a long time about how the media screwed over the university and it’s students and how the university leadership took a potential building block and turned it into a stumbling block. But those are almost too close to home. I had thought about perhaps doing something related to the application process. College applications are incredibly time consuming and many of them don’t seem to represent us as people. The colleges sometimes seem to care about us as nothing more than numbers.
