The DHMO video we watched in class was very interesting. I'm a bit ashamed to say that I was suckered in to saying that we should essentially ban water from campus. I had completely forgotten that DHMO stood for "dihydrogen monoxide," which means H2O.
It just goes to show you need to have as much information on something as you can get. If we really did try to ban DHMO at Northern, we would learn very quickly that we are a bunch of idiots and would be known as the only school in the nation to ban water.
I learned to make sure I get as much information as I possibly can before I make a decision. That last thing I want to do is to go into a situation blind basically. I'll ask lots of questions if I don't understand or if I'm not sure what something means. I've been known to jump to conclusions a little too early, so this has helped me realize that if I just take my time and get the information I need, then I will be able to make a better judgement call.
