Barlow College Reading Fall 2016 discussion

What does everyone plan on doing after college reading? Since it will no longer be mandatory to read every night, will your schedule change or do you think this class has made reading a part of your life?

Great question, Mark! (You can probably guess what my hopes are in terms of everyone's future reading...)

I wasn't reading at all (except for school books) before college reading, but after reading every night for a semester I think I will most definitely continue to read after college reading which were my hopes to gain from this class. This whole experience really showed me how great books are especially books you like. I do think though without the discipline of having to read every night for a good grade it will be more difficult to read every night.

I definitely think I'll still read regularly after college reading. Now that reading is part of my routine I feel like it will be much easier to keep the habit up throughout the school year.

This class gave me a lot of motivations to actually becoming more like reading. I'm not sure if I will still read every night like what we do in this class, College Reading, but I would definitely continue to read more and more.

College reading definitely got me back into the loop of regular reading, because when I was younger I read much more frequently. But in high school, I began to prioritize all my other assignments and activities. I'm just glad that this class gave me the chance to realize how much I miss reading.

College reading helped me realize I do have time to read. I always loved books, but never felt like I had the time to read in high school. Now that I see that I have the time I will definitely do more reading on the future.
