  1. Greg, I personally don't agree with your topic, but your presentation was interesting, and I can understand how you believe that we can attain utopia. I enjoyed your presentation after you got over the speed bump.

  2. The ACT accronym was a great point to have. The mian point was one we had not seen thus far in the presentations. Your point was more of a goal and i really liked the format this forced you to create because of this. Great job man.

  3. Greg,

    Good message. You had good support and explanation of that support. Also, good metaphors, like the wall of differences.

    As you probably already know, you could have memorized it better. When you get up there, it can wipe your mind blank. Bring your notes with you so you have them if you need them. It is only ten points off.

    Good slideshow, and good job overall.

  4. Greg- I think that you needed to have more confidence in yourself. You started off reall storng but you starte to doubt yourself. You had a great topic and you did an amazing job! You had great examples to share! Amazing job!

  5. Greg, I enjoyed listening to you because I've never thought about the perfect Utopia. It never occurred to me that maybe we just need to try a little harder. I got a little confused from time to time during your talk, but in the end you did an awesome job.

  6. You had an intersting idea and really built off of it. Good job getting over that obstacle. I thought you points were very intersting. Good job!

  7. Greg, your presentation was very well tied to your powerpoint and the slides connected well to your stories. Your speaking was very well paced and you incorporated emotion into your speech. You needed to connect to the bigger picture a little bit more. Great job Greg.

  8. Greg--I love your message! Your pictures were neat and helped you make a strong argument. I had never heard of agape before, but I love the concept. Your speech was excellent and really deep; the whole world could learn from you!

  9. Greg: I love how everyone can be included in your talk because everyone tries to feel "acceptance". I think that your talk was moving especially with the suicide facts. Your pictures also helped so much and I think you chose them very well. Good job! :)

  10. Greg. Nice, all we need is love. Being accepted is a great part of preventing deaths. It goes in conjunction with Lauren C's topic of bullying and bullycide, if we reach out a hand we can save a life. Nice talk!

  11. Greg- You needed to keep confidence in yourself throughout your speech. You took a very challenging topic for your talk. You took a risk, and that is great. I don't personally agree with the topic you chose though.

  12. Also, that was kind of depressing.

  13. Greg - You had an interesting and unique topic. Your ideas and solutions, were genuine, and your slideshow connected nicely to your speech. Your anecdotes of the treatment of women were quite interesting. Good job.

  14. I like the examples you used, but I think you needed to connect them to utopia more. Good job!

  15. Greg; In all the science fiction I've read, Utopia is impossible. In order to achieve it, we must counteract human nature. We mustn't all conform, like in 1984, and that's the only way to stop the hate. I also LOVE that Bible Story. Gender is a huge affirmer of the Bible: Why would God have Mary be the first one to see the Risen King? Because it is the truth. So, according to you, utopia is acceptance. Interesting, and a good thought.

  16. Greg- Make sure your confident when you talk! You knew your speech well so dont let the small things get you down. But, you had good examples and ideas!

  17. Greg,
    Good job! I think that you had some really good points. Your seemed really prepared! I think that it was interesting brining Jesus into your topic. It was risky but I thought it was great!

  18. Greg- Your presentation was great, so why did you want to go later. You seemed really confident and overcame even the slightest bit of nervousness.

  19. Greg- Don't be nervous! Your content matters, so you should be nervous about delivering it. Your message seemed unclear to me. Your ending with the point about suicide and not summarizing the presentation was confusing to me.

  20. Greg- I feel your TED Talk has a lot a meaning behind it. I think that your way of reaching utopia was a great one. I hope that people listen to this Talk and think about what they are doing.

  21. Greg-
    You did a good job. I was really moved by your speech. I was a little confused how all this connects to a eutopia because you switched subjects in the middle of the speech. Otherwise good job.

  22. Greg: I really like your point. I like how you used the poem from Ms. Cornils class. I also liked how you talked about suicide.I think that is important for everyone to show that they care about others. Great speech!
