AMS Rocks!!!!
I enjoyed the discussions we had in this class. They were open, informative, thought-provoking, and above all else, inspiring. I really do want to take more AMS classes and continue on to double major in it. I didn't give disability much thought until this class, nor did I give vampires much thought, but when you delve into the histories and the ideas behind some of these popular concepts, you can generate academic discourse that leads to further research and exploration. Yes, some things you may argue need no explanation and so why over-think why people love vampires, buy a certain type of music, or enjoy watching a specific genre of movie. The reality is there is a rhyme and reason behind all human action and thought, even when we think there is not. We learn about our tendencies, our innate desires, drives, values, etc. through studying popular culture because we created it.
