When I'm asked for my expectations for a class it makes me think harder than I normally care to think. My normal thought is that I want to be taught the things I need to know because that's what I'm paying obviously paying for. However, when I thought about this class I realized that I didn't actually know what I wanted to expect. I know that this class is about the environment and the world around me, and how I can see things in a more "green" state of mind. But, growing up with an environmental scientist for a father I already know all of that. Hopefully, this class can show me new and more efficient ways to be "green" and to appreciate nature and the beautiful world that we have on campus and in the surrounding areas.
To me sustainability is how every living thing survives. Plain and simple. Sustainability is when a living thing adapts and changes to work with the environment that it has been brought up around. My chosen field of study is athletic training and I feel that sustainability is a huge factor in keeping athletes healthy and playing at the top of their game. An athletic trainer should be able to adapt and change their ways to accommodate the specific environment in which they working. An inability to change or a huge ego are personal attitudes I believe a person cannot have in athletic training or even in the real world. These attitudes will not help someone sustain healthy relationships or lifestyles, which can cause them to not be able to keep their job and survive out in the real world.
