• Watch Senator Ben Sasse’s Ted Talk and Respond to Each of the Following Questions:
• Do you agree with the premise of Senator Sasse’s test to ascertain whether your time here at
AUC has been worth it, or rather a misuse of your time and your parents’ money?
• Are you currently developing the self-discipline and intellectual curiosity necessary to make the
most of this experience? If not, what is stopping you?
• Did you care enough about big ideas and your time/financial investment to do the reading and
wrestle with the big questions in this course?
• In what ways (if any) has your study of World Religions helped you to develop the intellectual
curiosity that Sasse commends in his talk?
*AUC is the American University in Cairo. Totally worth the time and money.
*This is for a course called Religions of the world. We studied Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
