Today's seminar did not inspire, alas. So, I asked the
students I was with the deceptively simple question, "So then, what would
you like to seminar on?"
Some suggestions for topics included:
Why seminar in the first place? Why are they
important?
Older versus contemporary music genres
Seminars on a half-day? For that matter, why not
more half-days. How are school schedules determined?
Historical and modern conspiracies, the Illuminati for
example.
School food, fast food and junk food.
The Kennedys
Marijuana legalization
Swearing
How are prices set? How much is a bag of gummies worth?
Why do you pay .99 for a half-full bag of chips? Are you paying for
the air?
Suggestions for "texts" included the films Supersize Me, Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, Hotel Rwanda, Superhigh Me, Disney films and Pixar shorts.
So... I am wondering. If you weren't really thrilled with this seminar, then what would thrill you?
