the benefits & blessings of which the legislature now propose to provide for the good
The authors of the Rockfish Gap Report affirm that religious worship is not conducive to a truly liberal arts education, going so far as to propose "no professor of Divinity." Yet religious language is smatter throughout the document (such as "blessings," "faithfulness," and "religious worship.") In the Virginia Statue for Religious Freedom which Thomas Jefferson also drafted, it is written,"all men shall be free to profess, and by argument to maintain, their opinions in matters of religion, and that the same shall in no wise diminish, enlarge, or affect their civil capacities." In this way, the assertions of both texts are consistent, but the biases of the authors are apparent in their use of religious language. This demonstrates that a collective view of what a society should be is not necessarily reflected in individual beliefs.

The objects of this primary education determine its character & limits. These objects would be, To give to every citizen the information he needs for the transaction of his own business. To enable him to calculate for himself, and to express & preserve his ideas, his contracts & accounts in writing. To improve by reading, his morals and faculties. To understand his duties to his neighbours, & country, and to discharge with competence the functions confided to him by either.
I think it is interesting that the author describes the type of education the University of Virginia strives to teach. Primary education is the foundation of knowledge that one needs to be able to grow intellectually and learn about the real-world. In society, the level and quality of education one receives is of utmost importance, especially in the United States, as it guides people's actions and shapes their outlook on life.

Individual work I believe to be critical in some professions. Educational systems should incorporate more group activities. Learning in groups, I believe an individual can learn a lot about themselves and even the content being discussed. The article discussed how some can lean on others during group activities, and potentially hinder others from learning or reaching their full potential. I do not believe there is a perfect system, but I do see the need for more group activities in educational programs.

pp. 9-10 what she saw as Being interesting about lists:
- POSSIBILITY OF HIDING AND LURKING;
- MINIMAL PERSONAL INFORMATION REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE
- Professor and UG could communicate as "virtual equals"
-
abstract:
Respondents reported varying degrees of social relationships formed with other participants on electronic mailing lists. These differences in experiences and expectations appeared to be related to the degree to which an individual felt in some way isolated from others, preferred communication styles, professional rank, and time constraints.

Proctor: Against you? PuTNAM: Against him and all authority! PRoctoR: Why, then I must find it and join it.
Proctor openly admits his disdain for Parris and the structure of Salem, making him an easy target for those looking for a scapegoat for the town's problems.

Abigail: Oh,-we’ll be whipped! Mary Warren: I never done none of it, Abby. I only looked! Mercy, moving menacingly toward Mary: Oh, you’re a great one for lookin’, aren’t you, Mary Warren? What a grand peeping courage you have!
Abigail and Mercy are trying to prevent Mary from confessing by creating a group mentality; they all acted together, and therefore either none or all will suffer the consequences.

Second, this is a false dichotomy right out of the gate.
Amen. Systemic vs. individual approaches to improving education are absolutely both necessary.

It is true that you are not participating in spiritualism. You are not communicating with a soul that has “passed on.” You are not speaking to an individuality still befuddled by the three-dimensional illusion of birth and death who thinks that he was ever born or ever died. I am not the medium through which the Christ-consciousness is revealing Itself as your conscious experience of Being. But, I do exist, as does every other individualization who has existed as an infinite aspect of Fourth-dimensional Conscious Being. There is infinite progression, even beyond the partial, three-dimensional-only view. It is simply ignorance—the inability to see infinitely—which would make one think that once the “mortal dream” is grown out of, there does not continue to be the infinite unfolding of Being as Conscious Being. This is true before or after the experience called death.
Definition: Ignorance - the inability to see infinitely.
More about Raj - not caught in belief of birth and death.
There is an infinite progression of the unfolding of Being as Conscious Being. "Death" does not end it - it never ends.
This is implied by WOM when it speaks of *The journey to the Kingdom and the Journey within the Kingdom."
