I think it dawned on me for the first time just the other that the semester is almost over. The finals schedule has already been posted, the talk of sea term has begun, and Thanksgiving is around the corner. With the end of the semester near, we begin to pick our classes for next semester. It is a very exciting process as we get to plan our daily lives for the spring. Also, the chance to take more exciting classes in our major.
Tonight we attended a leadership meeting taught by Professor David Palmer. He talked about ethics and how they apply to leadership. We learned about moral blindness and using moral courage. The part that got through to me the most was the Front Page Test. Mr. Palmer talked about how if we are to make a decision and act on it; could we then publicize that in the newspaper that our friends, family, peers, and other read. Would we have been comfortable with that? If we were not it would mean that we had made the wrong choice. Mr. Palmer left us with a lot to digest as we prepare to take on leadership roles and postions.
