What is this?

This is my (as I have aptly named) Senior Portfolio. So why am I doing this? Simple, it's for my independent study. Dr. Iron's and I decided that the best way to share and display all the pieces of my portfolio that I will be building over the course of the semester would be to create a blog. In this study I will be diving into modern philosophy and its effects on the world that I live in, my generation, culture and life experiences. In this blog you will find several varying posts, which include:

  • My journals-these will mainly be my thoughts on the four books I am reading for the semester (Shantung Compound by Langdon Gilkey, We The Living by Ayn Rand, The Way of Ignorance by Wendell Berry, and Conversations by Luce Irigaray)
  • Author Information-Each book I will also post a general overview of information on each of the authors and what her or his take on philosophy is.
  • Discussion Questions-these will be the 
  • Other: this broad category will include articles, art work, music, poetry, pop culture references, current events or any other thing that I feel can tie into this overall work.
I hope you enjoy and PLEASE leave your "two-cents" whether you whole-heartedly agree or disagree with me!
