Facebook is being a little shit, so I'm going to blog instead.
I have very ambiguous emotions after finishing the class. I learned a LOT throughout the course, there is no doubt. I don't think my views changed, but I did learn how to defend my ideologies. I really enjoyed blogging. It was a good way to relate my opinions in a more relaxed way. The subject matter towards the end of the class was really interesting and practical.
The instructor was a great guy. If I were a Poly Sci major, I would definitely take another course taught by him. I'm sure he'll go on to achieve great things. Or maybe he'll end up living in a cardboard box. Who can say? Certainly not I.
All that being said, the actual logistics of the course were freakishly irritating. The syllabus changed way too many times. Everything was due towards the end of the course. I think expectations were a little too high for a 200 level class. That might be why about half the people originally enrolled dropped the course at some point, but I don't know. However, I think it's great that the instructor wanted to teach a more dynamic class. Y200 was definitely one of the most involved classes I've taken so far at IU.
I don't know if I'm going to keep up blogging. I think it'd be a good opportunity to work on mah writing skills. We'll see. I have no motivation to write. good bye for now bloggy!
