You are an important member of our group, and you’re doing a great job of communicating. Do you think it’s possible that you might have a rough draft of a […]

Yep, your work has never been more relevant than it is at this very moment, and, if the news that’s flooding my screens and coffee table are any indication, your work will only become even more relevant and […]

This is great. I’ve requested access to see your slides, which I’d love to peruse before the overnight (can I be granted permission for a sneak-preview?)

You’ve stayed true to your topic […]

I think you have a convincing pitch, and others will certainly recognize the importance of your issue. From the poking around I’ve done on our collective blog site, I see several other students are […]

It’s neat to see how your topic translates into a mind map. I’m curious about the legislative branch of your mind map. Race is legally a protected class, but of course this doesn’t prevent racial […]

I think your mind map is fabulous. The term “mind map” lends itself well to your topic. It’s clear from your map that you’ve done a lot of thinking about how your topic breaks down, and about how these […]

Much of your post this week echoes ideas from last week’s blog post. I very much enjoyed the metaphorical narrative at the beginning of this post, and I would push you to specifically identify […]

I can really feel your topic narrowing down in an organic way. You have been discussing alternative treatment for mental health related issues, but in this blog your focus feels especially strong and […]

It was nice to chat with you Sunday while we sat atop Mt. Philo. When I got home, I saw this front page article in the Free Press, and I thought immediately of you. I’m sending it in case you missed it:

I really like this line that you pulled from Sinek’s talk: “There are leaders, and there are those who lead. Leader hold a position of power or authority. But those who lead inspire us.” Keep this in […]

You definitely get at the heart of Sinek’s message when you sum it up at the end of your first paragraph: “People aren’t buying the ‘what,’ they are really essentially buying the ‘why.'” This p […]

You look at some deep questions here, and you are not afraid to confront them honestly. In reference to racial biases you’ve identified in yourself, you write, “It certainly wasn’t something I w […]

I’m glad to see that you decided to go with this interesting topic. The organizations you researched seem to be making good strides toward inciting change.

There are also local organizations […]

I was particularly interested in your brother’s reaction to that crazy T-shirt. It made me think and wonder about how students feel these stereotypes are perpetuated in our community. I know you’ve […]

I am seeing some common threads between your blog posts thus far: You are a creative and engaging writer, you use humor to approach serious topics, and you are passionate about life.
