So we are now on the adventure of proposals and shortly you will be presenting a campaign for your proposal on the issue you have chosen. Many of you grapple with the questions: "What can I do?" or "Whatever I do won't make a difference; I'm just a college student." or "The problem will always be there; we'll never be rid of it."
I'm sure there were people who felt the same way about human slavery, right?
Myspace has created a new page called MySpace Impact. There you can find several different organizations, mostly started by young people like yourself. As mentioned in class, Awareness in and of itself is a part of the solution to any problem or issue. Take a look at what some people are doing and discuss these efforts in your blog. Notice the differences in bringing awareness to these issues and their proposed solutions. Also, feel free to discuss your thoughts on the idea of proposing solutions to any of the issues we are discussing in class or outside of class.
