# 1 Course Impressions

When i transfer schools and came to FGCU i would have never though i had to take a course about the environment. First of all because is not part of my major, and second of all it looked boring to me and did not think it would help in my future career. Also, When i spoke with people who have already taken University Colloquium, all you hear about is the unfavorable papers and loads of work. One thing i was happy about, is that this class is given at the Rookery Bay since is closer to my house than FGCU, and is a different kind of setting than the usual classrooms.

After our first class meeting at the Rookery bay my first impressions of the class is that colloquium should be fun and interesting and that it does actually relate at some point in every ones life since we all live in this world. One thing i was amazed about is the amount of people that  support and help this organization protect our Floridian ecosystem and wild life. One thing that i liked the most was the board walk we had with the volunteer. It was very interesting to learn the different kinds of species, plants, and trees that reside here in South West Florida.

By the end of this class i expect myself to have understanding of the beautifully place we all live in, and knowledge of how we as humans can help protect our ecosystem and the wild life that surround us.
