Freshman Seminar

Presentation 5

I would like to start off by saying that I actually enjoyed myself during this lecture.   The lecturer spoke of things that were beneficial and helpful to our class. He spoke mostly about good character, what it means to have good character, and how to obtain good character. To me, this is one of the most relevant speeches I have heard since being in the class. I hold this opinion because it speaks directly to each individual student and not indirectly. Character and the qualities and traits one possesses affects us all directly. And for that reason alone, good character building is key to a harmonious society. Furthermore, developing character is apart of becoming an adult which is a major developmental process that all of us freshmen are experiencing right now. That made the topic of character that much more valuable as a lecture topic. Overall, I approve of this lecture. The only grievance I hold is with the fact that the lecturer had a very thick accent that made it difficult to understand everything he was saying. However, I must interject that if one paid close enough attention then extracting the general meaning of his lecture was not hard at all.
