Executive Leadership Folly
For my senior seminar, I had to read around 4 books last week including Plato's Statesman, The Prince, Nobility and Civility (TERRIBLE), and some other terrible book. Of course, I was chosen to give the presentation on the Nobility and Civility book. So I read all 250 pages of the terrible terrible book. Of course it was written by some Columbia Professor. It was all about Asian ideals and how they fit into modern society. Not really my cup of tea considering how I'm more into American Politics (According to my major anyway) than I am into Asian Civ. So I have this presentation all set to go and we didn't even get to my book presentation. Figures, right? So of course we were talking about all the other books....that I didn't read. I have to say, nothing makes a two-hour class go longer than not having read the books. Maybe that's why I didn't like all those core classes...
I'm just glad it's Wednesday, because Tuesdays are terrible for me. I end up leaving my apartment in Williamsburg around 8:30 and getting back to the house around 9 at night. Not like it's a terribly long day, but it's a solid day of work, but it culminates in International Affairs building sitting through my seminar. Oh well.
Anyway, class is about to start... we're looking at rocks today. What fun.
