Egan

1.  Assume an active role in life rather than a passive one.  The student must actively direct himself, rather than merely following directions.

 

With this statement I do agree with Egan. I agree with him because he is right a student should direct them selves instead of having to follow someone else's directions. They should know what direction we need to take. We do not need someone to tell us how to dress school appropriate you should know.

 

4. Develop a wider range of interests -- moving from changeable, shallow, and casual interests in mature, strong, and enduring interests.

 

With this statement I agree with Egan and disagree. I agree that everyone should try something new and have a wide variety of things they like. I just do not agree with actually developing these new things. You should not have to develop new things  if you do not want to. You should try it but make it your choice on how much time you want to spend on your new interest.

 

In my life I believe me getting ready to live on my own with out my parents is a step of adult hood.

 

I do believe Sycamore sometimes gives you a chance especially when you are a senior, but for some reason they feel like they have to have authority over every little thing. They do not we know what is right and not if we are doing something that is not like a normal school day but it is not hurting anyone then they need to get over this so called authority they have and move on.
