For this week's blog, start with the Hess and Lucena readings (see the Week 2 folder on the Blackboard course site) and then consider responding to one or more of these prompts:
1. Do you think Purdue has a distinct "culture"? If so, what are some of its defining features or characteristics? Given your experiences so far, how would you describe it to others?
2. Some would argue that cultures around the world are becoming more homogeneous, especially given current globalization trends. Do you agree? Why or why not?
3. Lucena gives the example of the 9/11 attacks as an image that challenged all Americans. What cultural images are currently challenging Americans? How are people responding to these images?
