FYS

I really liked the idea we discussed in class of a current events class. I feel like most freshman don't read or watch the news and being in Morris like Kat said is like being on an island. So if freshman aren't in the habit of reading the news, then they probably continue to be uninformed through the rest of college...but with a current events class I think people would get in the habit and be informed throughout their college career.
Doing the FYS like this would solve the problem of nonuniformity too...people would all have similar discussions and the topics would be something that most professors would feel comfortable teaching.
I say...bring it up at the planning meeting. I think it would be a positive change.
