I missed the sex class: although, I recall taking one called "Gender and Society". Maybe the U tried to "sex up" gender issues...and missed the mark. Sounds suspiciously like false advertising to increase enrollment! Hey Bugsy:

I mean this is college, hormones are going crazy, a class about sex and society could never be boring, right? Wrong, sadly. There was no delivery, when should talking about sex in college evear be boring? Whoever that teacher was I hope she's taken some lessons in presenting since.

You can have the greatest material in the world, but if not presented well, the audience won't GET IT! However, a presenter can be very, very, entertaining - and say NOTHING!

Clever copy writing indeed ...and that really proves the point doesn't it. She also said “People will do more..”

Stick in a few Maslow pyramids, Kinsey temperature graphs, heart rate anayses, length vs frequency ( http://3nk7.sl.pt ) and you could bore anyone witless.

She also said, "Swallowing a list of facts." But then Bil, I think she did it all on purpose. ;-) Niche, stories and passion....perfect. Thanks Laura! Ha!

You said "go deep". Sorry, couldn't resist that. Very good tips. If you can make your topic exciting & personal, people pay WAY more attention. Ha! You said “go deep”. Sorry, couldn’t resist that.
