This post is part of an ongoing series of blog entries by Anjie D (FG3), a freshman at Barnard College writing about her college experiences on the blog Uptown Girl. Here's an excerpt of her latest musings.
Plato and I are going to have to make some compromises together for the next few weeks. He is on the reading list for two of my classes. I do not want him there, but he will not budge-so, I am afraid, I am going to have to read his Republic and discuss his absurd Meno. The compromise I want him to make for me in return, however, is to be kind. Just be kind to me, Plato, that is all I ask.
