REFLECTION QUESTION
Transportation

How do your transportation choices affect your engagement in your community? Does your experience differ while walking, riding transit, biking, or driving?
cameron burch 10/13/2025 11:02 PM
I feel like while biking I am much more likely to smile or wave at a familiar face or another individual who is also community by bike. I am definitely more engaged and feel like I am more than just another count to the population when I'm biking to class.

How does/can practicing gratitude keep you centered and motivated to work for a better world?
cameron burch 10/13/2025 10:55 PM
