 I feel that I have already begun to investigate so many aspects of evolution and Darwin, and biology as a whole, through this new realm of "truth" and the questioning of our reality. I think that it is so important to question things, and I have not done nearly enough of that with regard to the sciences at Bryn Mawr. I am not a "science person" which is a term that I now realize is a bit silly, but I have really enjoyed that way that we have been grappling with Darwin and the theories of evolution.

It can become a bit frustrating when everything seems to be thrown away though, or torn apart. Sometimes I find myself leaving the class utterly confused, but after reflection and exploration of the blogs, I can usually come around to a better understanding of the class discussion. I think thisis why I have been commenting more often than posting my own blog posts. In this way, I definitely appreciate the online aspect of this course, and the conversations that take place there. It was difficult at first to become comfortable with posting my thoughts and writing online, but I have come around to the idea.

I am excited to begin exploring the literature side of this evolutionary conversation, and am very curious and excited to see the way that the two halves of the class really come together and relate, as I have been in Paul's break out group as well.
