Welcome...and initial guidelines...

This blog will be used in the spring of 2008 by 80+ students at Drexel University to investigate the effects of Iraq on culture and the reverse. Our goal will be to better understand why the US is in Iraq, and to question whether literature can help us on this journey.

Weekly plans and other materials will always be posted in Vista, not this blog. So go to Bb Vista to get the discussion prompts and other instructions.

I intend this blog to manage our discussions and track our collective investigation.

You should have received an email from me inviting you to become a contributor to this blog. The email was sent Monday afternoon to your official Drexel email address.

Stop-Loss...who will be the first to blog it?

It will no doubt be a while before I see Stop-Loss (if I ever see it on the big screen). Who will be the first to blog about it here?

In week 2 we are all going to be on a mission to find some positive things going on in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's too easy to find people throwing rocks at our mission there...I've been trying hard! The only positive stuff I can find is from Dick Cheney's personal blog: whyiamtherealdrevil.blogger.com.

That blog link you provided is not working, or was that link a joke?
