Check In/Review of Four Agreements & Six Conditions: Here are the Courageous Conversations Agreements.

What Can I Do Today?: We also asked students if there was anything they wanted to add to the "What Can I Do Today?" poster up at the front of the room, in terms of actions outside of class. We also noted that the list is live on the blog here on the upper right corner, with links!
