Minute Paper 3/4

Today we got to meet Mr. Jim Dator, the man all of us have known as the writer of a large portions of our readings. This is more than a bit ironic due to the fact he started his lecture by calling out the over emphasis on reading/writing in college. This irony aside, Professor Dator was an engaging and entertaining speaker who made some intriguing points on how our countries form of government, though an incredible feat when it was created (albeit fraught with racism and sexism), was never meant to be a democracy and has, at least in some parts, become obsolete.

Finally, let me just say that whatever unfortunate event or emergency may have occurred, I’m sure that I speak for all of us when I say that our best wishes are with you Stuart.
