SPCH 5000 Blog post 15

To conclude my experience with SPCH 5000, I can honesty say that this is one of the best classes that I have ever taken here at Utah State. Not only did I learn so many great things about women's rights and the different gender issues that so many individuals face on a daily basis, but I applied many of these experiences to my every day life as well. Its not easy being an individual among the many that make up our world and the society in which we live in. Every day we are surrounded by people that judge us and the media that tells us to act and look a certain way. See in the end being yourself and going against what our society states as "socially correct" is what will set you a part from all the rest.  I loved every once of this class and cant wait to take another one like it.

  1. What an important point you have made that we do need to make a stand of who we are and not get wrapped up in others people's decisions of who we should be. We don't have to be what the world says, I am Me and that is what matters. It is too bad we have fallen into the trap that the world can depict what happens to our lives by the choices we make from the influences we recieve from them. 1st Step Realize what the media is doing to us 2nd Make a Resolve to change it starting with ourselves. We are already 1/2 way there!!

    Thank you for all your comments on my blog throughout the semester. You had some great insights!

  2. I think it's cool when you can apply concepts from classes into real life. I too have had the cool opportunity to see how the class could help in daily-life. As I am presented with a message, I can see how it's affecting me.
