Serendip as the Personal

Submitted by Ann Dixon on Thu, 12/04/2008 - 7:21am.

It's interesting that noone has challenged the assumption that "For me, Serendip is very interesting, but because it does not involve the personal, I think it can be less controversial and less vibrant than personal journals."

Please see some other Serendip pages outside of this course:

Mifestrone: The Abortion Pill

Sleep Paralysis

Sleepwalking

Measure for Measure (explores eating disorders)

Among others, these web postings describe real fear and real nitty-gritty interactions between people. I enjoy what you all do and write on Serendip, but it is a construct of your class and yourselves, not limited by Serendip's identity and range of published experiences.
