Class Review

When I signed up for this class, I really didn't know what it was going to be about. I like biology, so "molecular machines" stood out to me on the FYS list, although it wasn't until the first class that I learned what a molecular machine actually is. At first, all the new terms, papers, and presentatios seemed overwhelming, but they got easier the more we did. I liked being able to continue discussions on the blog, since sometimes I didn't think of what I wanted to say until class was over. This class was also an interesting mix of biology and entrepreneurship. I had not thought about this particular area before, and it was cool to see how people like the Bio Botz are getting their unique company off the ground. I also enjoyed the field trip to the community care center, since it is a great entrepreneurial success, providing services some would consider impossible for a free clinic. I thought it was interesting finding out more about how these "molecular machines" work and I would recommend the class to future students.
