and Quantitative Reasoning.

principles guiding general education from this course and the courses you have
taken in the past: •What are the most important concepts you have learned (a)
from this course and (b) throughout your time as a university student?
•Why do you think obtaining knowledge from general education
courses is important? •What are your plans for putting your education to use
within your community? •How might your newly acquired knowledge and skills
shape your personal and professional development? •Support your claims with examples from required

references. •Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length.
