Please complete both parts (one paragraph for each).

Part 1:  What are you enjoying about OSU’s campus?

Part 2:  What are you finding difficult, new, or troubling on OSU’s campus?

*Blog Post:  You can choose either Part 1, Part 2, or both.

Part 1:  Think about a time when someone did something kind for you for no reason.

Part 2:  Perform at least three spontaneous acts of kindness (it can be small!  E.g. open doors, pick up dropped items to return, giving someone change, etc.)

Write a blog entry about your experience.

Blog Post:  Part 1:  Prepare (and write) 10 polite compliments that you could use with a stranger in a public place.  Part 2:  Give 6 people (3 people you know, 3 strangers) spontaneous compliments, and write a blog entry about the experience.

Both parts should be posted to the blog for full credit.

Write about your experience saying hello, smiling at, or holding the door open for 10 strangers on campus.  How did they react?  How did you feel?  Did you talk to the person?  What sorts of things did you talk about?  Write a paragraph, and don’t forget to read the previous post (and comment on it in your post)!
