Jim Lecture

1) I found it interesting how Jim spoke about the authenticity of this restaurant. I struck me because it doesn't seem like there are many places like that anymore.
2) He answered every question with heart just like his story was filled with heart, it broke mine when he started crying.
3) I learned a lot about what a community should not only look like but feel like as well.

This restaurant is interesting because it is so little yet it means so much to the community. Salem thrives on authenticity and sense of place everywhere in it.
5) Option 2: the speakers reminded me that this chapter of my life, college, is just starting and I have a lot to look forward to in the time that I have at school here. The speakers were personal and that's what made it effective. I don't think it could've gone better. It impacted my engagement because one can only hope to find a sense of place as strong as Jim's. I rate it a 2 only because I zoned out once or twice.
