Final Thoughts on “Writing the World” 

by Members of the Corporate Communication Class

“It is important to ‘write the world’ to teach and help others. To have a positive influence in society is what we all should strive to do. The ability to change and touch the world is a profound movement and feeling that will have ever-lasting effects.”

– Raquel Gonzalez

“‘Writing the world’ is important because it brings awareness to social, legal, and environmental issues involving humanity and our effects on the planet. It is imperative we take action to inform and educate in order to bring change.”

– Laurie Mollo

“It is important to ‘write the world’ and utilize our influence to make changes in society that are not morally right or go against equal treatment of all.”

– Nadine Pierre-Louis

“When you can identify an area where change would positively impact society, you should get involved. Too many people are comfortable sitting by and not standing up for critical issues.”

– Shonelle Williams

“It is important to ‘write the world’ so we may explore various topics and open our horizons to what is happening around us and in our world. This could empower people to strive for positive societal changes that would allow everyone to feel safe regardless of their skin tone, sexual orientation, culture, or religion.”

– Branka Romih

“I think it is important to ‘write the world’ because in this manner we alert others to the concerns we have regarding our youth. But this is not only about my subject matter, it can apply to the concerns we all have regarding the things that affect us in one way or another.”

– Carlos Leon

“I believe that we often tend to define education much too narrowly. If we can help students expand their conception of what is possible in the classroom, ideally it will allow them to expand their influence in the world in ways unimaginable. If we do not allow students to ‘write the world’ of the classroom, how do we expect them to write the real world?”

– Dino Sossi
