Anth 3115: 9/14/10 Guest Speakers

During last tuesday's (9/14/10) class we had 2 guest speakers, Kevin Vacarello and Routh Bolomet.
Kevin was the first to speak. He talked about sustainability and explained how sustainability was important. He said in order for us to keep sustainability we must maintain the balance for 3 important building blocks, which are Ecology (bottom), Equity (middle), and Economy (top). We want to create a system in which we account for ecology, instead of just paying attention on our economy.
After Kevin spoke and after a break, Routh spoke to us about her situations in life (journey). She explained to us about the power of healing, both biologically and spiritually. According to Routh, we were able to heal oursleves by listening to our spirits. She also said that we were able to heal ourselves by eatting the right foods (organic).
I am very glad that Prof. Cruz invited Kevin and Routh to talk to us. They opened a whole new insight for me that I haven't even known.
