Your Fourth Post (Due Friday by 3 PM)
I will be the first to admit that the presentation on Financial Success was not quite what I had anticipated. The topic is also not conducive to blogging. So this is the topic, staying in the vein of success!
What have you been doing to ensure your academic success? Social? Have you joined organizations? What are you most proud of thus far in your time at Mizzou? How are you setting yourself up now for future success, both in your career and life? How are you staying on top of all of your obligations? Feel free to expand on these topics and add your own, but please answer the questions at hand. 250 Word Minimum as has come to be expected.
Respect yourself out there.

What 3 things on the checklist are you going to try to do to reduce your carbon footprint and/or waste output?

What do you think, as Dr. Porter noted, we will look back at in 50 years and think we could have done better (What do you think is our most wasteful endeavor)?
Two-Fiddy!!!
Jake; Out.

Your Second Post (Due Friday by 3:00 PM)
Take the same individual you argued for, and argue against them. Use at least 3 facts as to why they would NOT help build the community.
Also, pick one person that one of your classmates argued for, and tell us why you think they are a really good choice. Additionally, talk about how their presentation convinced you to vote for them (this could be in the 1st or 2nd round).
What do you think is the most important component of the Argumentation Theory? Why?
As always, 250 words!
Your loving PA,
Jake
p.s. Don't all just use Greg Mortenson!
