New Semester

It's a new semester and it seems the big trend in college teaching these days is having students make blogs. I don't have a problem with using blogs as a teaching technique but it makes you think; with all the teachers and all the students in all the universities and colleges and trade schools in the world how much crap are we filling up the internet with? Does the internet have some ultimate capacity? Some limit that it’s gonna reach sooner because of my post about comic books?

Schools should just give every student a blog when they start school. Students get e-mail addresses and teachers have blackboard , why not a blogs?

Where am I going with this? Well, this semester I have 3 classes that have made creating and maintaining a blog an assignment. So basically, I'd appreciate it if my professors - you know who you are - wouldn't mind if I use the blog I created last semester for a different class for all 3 classes? My e-mail's dkirsch@hunter.cuny.edu if this is a problem. Thanks all.

P.S. Please only grade me on the work that's for your class :)
