Library+Dr. Lubach

Unfortunately, I was sick this entire weekend and didn't get to visit the library with the rest of my section. I would have been very interested in seeing where things are, and learning how to locate certain books or information with the rest of my section. I did, however, go and visit myself. The library is probably the absolute best resource for students here on campus. It is impressive and useful in every way.

Dr. Lubach's lecture was also impressive. I loved hearing about DJ
Milkman and how he would test his music on the party-goers in Isla Vista. It's always nice to hear about the different directions you can go in with a degree from UCSB. You don't have to just be a marine biologist or a chemist, you can take yourself anywhere. I also loved the story about hacking Storke Tower and playing the ending theme to Portal. I hope to do something awesome like that at some point. He really encouraged us to explore, discover our depths, and learn for the sake of learning. It's not all about the degree; it's about every bit of information you have obtained, whether its math equations or life skills.

Attached I posted a picture of Jack Johnson, a person who made something interesting of himself after graduating UCSB.
