College Talk - Questions, Comments, Queries?

Considering I'll be leaving Bloomfield this Friday, I figured I'd start a blog for anyone that wants to know any information regarding college or ask any questions about my own college experience. Anything from dorm rooms, dinning halls, classes, to social life on or off campus you are interested in talking about go for it. College is an exciting new experience for all freshmen and it can be helpful to discuss some interesting aspects of it before diving in head first.  It would have been great if we had time to have a class discussion on anything college related to feed into your curiosities on the topic but because that opportunity did not present itself, I figured this would be the best alternative.

Keep comments appropriate, but ultimately this is for you to benefit from and hopefully it can help you feel more comfortable leaving high school and entering college next Fall.

Based on your reading of Goff 241-253, we see that the appeasement of German aggression by the League of Nations, Britain, France, Soviet Union and the United States reestablished Germany as a dominant military threat in Europe throughout the 1930's.  Hitler was strategically calling the bluff of the Treaty of Versailles and continued on his path to rebuild Germany.  Do you think that WWII was preventable if one of the major world powers had stepped in and intervened in Germany's revision or was the war bound to occur either way?

Additionally, is this modern day appeasement??

First, add a comment that provides a response to to the questions above or to the posted comments.

Next, comment on three other classmate's posts from last time.
