I Miss This Class

Being away from this class for three weeks because of a fractured arm and spring break has given me a lot of time to reflect on things. I have come to the conclusion that I simply miss being a part of this class and I feel like I have missed so much in the way of discussion, which is my favorite part. This is my favorite class this semester; I wasn't expecting that.

So far I am very pleased with how I have been doing. I read Darwin! That, to me, is a huge success and an indicator of how great this class is. It often takes a lot to get me to read something that I have decided I cannot or will not. So kudos to you Anne and Paul, I don't know how it worked, but you guys got me to do something I did not want to do. 

I feel like the class is moving forward nicely and working well. My only valid complaint is that there are so many people and we cannot all talk at once. But I do not think that has been a true hindrance, if anything it simply makes the class more diverse. Since I have missed the last four classes my insight may not be as relevant as that of others. However, from my point of view, things are working really well for me and for the group collectively.
