Introduction

The course Facing History and Ourselves was not chosen just selected as a slack off class by me. I had had graduating friends last year that took it and told me how powerful the class was and how they felt about it, they also told me there was a lot about World War II and Germany, which is my primary interest in history. This is a course like none that I have ever taken this this school, and I hope that the school continues to support this class as students that are passing through really need to understand and learn these lessons that I have learned through this first half of the year. It was difficult for me to handle the workload I had because I was also taking an out of school emergency medical technician class, so I did not blog as often as I needed too, but I do not want that to reflect my attitude towards the class. I feel this course it something every student should be required to take and not just as a half year course. If this class was a whole year long there would be so many more lessons learned and the information would have much more time to sink in. As I mentioned in my essay I will be recommending it to my friends, especially my freshman brother.
