Class Day "A14" at sea

Today is class meeting day "A14."

On the agenda for me is the following:

  • Teach "Mass Media Systems Around the World" (Time:  0800 - 0915)
  • Sit in on the Global Studies core course that the entire ship "shuts down for" daily - it is held in the Student Union area of the ship with the lecture being broadcast on the closed-circuit TV system of the ship to the various satellite classrooms on the ship for those students who can't fit in the Union (Time:  0920 - 1040)
  • Teach "Intercultural Communication" (Time:  1045 - 1200)
  • Cultural Pre-Port Briefing for Malaysia (Time:  2000 - 2100)

We will advance our clocks by one hour tonight which will make us 11 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time in the U.S.
