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.

A Day For Memory

My memorial started off with me waking up in Kelly Hall. Not my ideal home but for once it was nice because there was no drilling at 7a.m. I got up took a shower and started to work on my design project. Design is like a war itself. You work and work for hours and somethings work and other don't you win and loose battles and don't get complete satisfaction until you get your final grade and that lets you know if you won the war. So in my own way I payed triubte to the soldiers who fought  and died for our country because I am fighting my own war. I hope I win.
