Reflection
Jeff Bliss doesn’t look like a model citizen. He has long hair and sagging pants but he’s talking about some real shit. A lot of kids don’t know what they want to do with their education so a lot of students turn to their teachers for guidance. If you have shitty teachers and you end up disliking all your classes then you just have no idea where to go when the idea of college comes to mind. In a sense, teachers that don’t care, contribute to the dropout rate and make students look at college and high school as a waste of time. Jeff’s speech was inspiring, intriguing, funny and most of passionate. It’s kind of a relief to know there are other students who are thinking the same way as I am. I rarely find myself in a class saying “This is brilliant! I love this class!“ I believe students find it hard to stand up to their teachers and inform them that something is wrong because this concept of “respect your elders” has been nailed into their brains since they were capable of thinking for themselves. It also doesn’t help that these teachers are in charge of your grades which in the end effect your future.
