Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post Understanding Understanding: A Final Reflection in the group American Studies: 6 years, 8 months ago

I don’t think it’s unreasonable to make the personal assumption that one of my most used phrases is “I get it.” “I get it” is a tool; primarily used to escape from an unwanted conversation or to relieve one […]
Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post Closing Thoughts in the group American Studies: 6 years, 9 months ago

As a whole this class introduced me to an entire portion of American History that I was unaware of. As stated in my previous post, I really am appreciative of that, any class that teaches me about something I had […]
Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post Words and Encouraging Not Knowing Everything in the group American Studies: 6 years, 9 months ago

I found our class discussion on words to be very enjoyable and interesting. Watching everyone pick a word that they didn’t know was a pleasant exercise, and it normalized the daunting task that was trying to d […]
Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post A Follow-Up on the Nuances of Consent in the group American Studies: 6 years, 9 months ago

Our group blog post discussing consent was one that I considered very fleshed out and thorough, but also lacked an incisive conclusion. I don’t think that is a fault of myself or my group, but instead because, a […]
Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post When a Body is Valued Over a Person in the group American Studies: 6 years, 9 months ago

Throughout this course, I have seen many posts comparing the circumstances of “Zone One” to the current landscape of the United States. Emphasis on comparing, there are several arguing that a dystopian zombie inf […]
Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post A Wealth of Knowledge Unshared, and the Need for Discussion in the group American Studies: 6 years, 9 months ago

I believe that where this class curriculum excels is in its ability to showcase aspects of American history that would otherwise slip through the cracks of our country’s education system. I think that it’s very e […]
Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post Group Projects and their ability to promote ideas in the group American Studies: 6 years, 9 months ago

Along with most people, my relationship with group projects has been very strained. I often found myself either being a sole contributor or having little to offer. My difficulties lay in the uncertainty of […]
Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post Untold Stories and Closure in the group American Studies: 6 years, 9 months ago

People enjoy stories. The stories themselves don’t have to necessarily be very interesting, or thought-provoking, but there is a certain aesthetic pleasure that is associated with the conclusiveness of a story. B […]
Frederick Yopp wrote a new blog post Heathcliff and Pip: Brothers From Another Mother in the group Nineteenth-Century Studies: 6 years, 10 months ago

I feel as though it is unquestionable that there are stark similarities between Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights and Pip in Great Expectations, and these similarities only become more pronounced in this set of […]
