Raindrops on roses

So my first class went very well. I had Intro to Public Admin last night, and although I'm going to be a very busy girl, I'm looking forward to the class. The strange thing is that there are no tests in the class. It's two big papers, presentations, participation, and get this, a debate!

I looooooove debates



















The interesting part, of course, was that we had to draw our debate question and which side we will be supporting--so we got no choice in the matter. I got very lucky:

"In fighting a war on terrorism, is the U.S. acting within reasonable limits to maintain its civil liberties?"
My position = NO.

This should be a fun term. :)

  2. I pity those who have to argue "yes" to that. They're fucked.

    Great to hear the first class went well. You should buy a new pair of shoes to celebrate. Then another pair before the big debate.
