CA's Thoughts about Rhetoric

Okay, so I guess we are winding down the semester... spring break is here, multimedia presentations are due soon, and that means that final exams are right around the corner! I wanted to take a few moments to reflect back on a few things that have happened to me and what I think about English 492/692 up until this point.

As many of you know, I was a Political Science major and a Communication Studies minor last year. After looking at my transcript, I noticed that I could take just a few more classes and double major in both subjects. One of the classes that I needed for the Communication Studies degree was this class... Classical or Modern Rhetoric. My first impression was that Modern Rhetoric had to be easier than the classical one. Who wants to read about old, white, and dead guys from a long time ago... not exactly my cup of tea. I thought this class would be the lesser of the two evils. I was also glad to know that I would know someone else in the class because David is a COMM major and I guess that is a feeling of security by knowing someone in the class.

I like the set-up of our class. I had used a type of internet posting in a previous COMM class, but I was new to the Blogger.
