1

I honestly don't know what I want to write about in my final project for this class. I mean this is such a broad topic that I don't want to pick something and then end up regretting what my decision later on down the road. I like to consider all options before I make my final decision. I know this first assignment was to just discuss what I "might" want to write about, but I am finding it difficult since I have no idea what I would even consider writing about. Maybe something about how schools (like Rutgers) are getting so much bigger and even though it's great that so many people are pursuing higher education, where are all these new people going to go? With the incoming class sizes continuing to increase housing, registering for required courses, and just taking the bus have become more and more difficult with the growth in populations. What could be the solution to this problem without decreasing the number of new students in higher education? Should schools simply increase in size including more housing, more buses, and more classes? Or should more schools be created in order to maintain some sort of "smaller" school environment so students can get individual attention without getting lost in the rush of 60,000 people. This is just an idea. I doubt I will stick with this idea the whole way through. I'll probably change my mine at least six more times, just a heads up.
