Welcome to the conversation.

This blog will be a forum to continue our conversations outside of the classroom, in this virtual space.  I (aka Brendan, aka The Management) will meet you here several times over the course of the semester with a topic, question, or idea.  Your assignment will be to contribute to this conversation by using the "comments" tool to respond to my post, as well as the posts of your classmates.  Please remember that the blog is a public forum, and that your writing will be visible both to your classmates and to the internet community at large.  This means that all your posts should follow the University of Minnesota code of conduct - and I reserve the right to remove posts which do not.  Further instructions for writing will follow soon.
