Day to day, we probably don't think much about our reading choices. Students have plenty of assigned reading, and professors must read a lot to stay current. We might feel we have little choice in our reading because we have so much assigned reading. Aside from time constraints, are there any forces limiting our reading choices? Does your local bookstore carry books from a wide variety of publishers, or just a few? How are selection decisions made? Could the person responsible for buying books for your local bookstore or library avoid books on topics they don't agree with? Have any titles been removed from school libraries or school curriculum due to parent or teacher disapproval of the subject matter? These are important questions to think about periodically.

Twenty-one; the last milestone. You're all on your own now. Sometimes I forget how old I am. Majors. Degrees. Bachelors. Masters. It's crazy to think about it this way. You know those Playstation2s, those XBoxs, those video games¬ - you know, NCCA March Madness '08 or whatever? Those are college basketball players. (0) comments
At what point does the red light in someone's mind flash, "Stop talking."? Recently, I've come to the conclusion that some people either do not have a flashing light at all, or they choose to ignore it. Now, I'm not talking about the people who can talk your ear off for days or the people who can have a one-on-one conversation with you over lunch or coffee. (1) comment
