All About Me

Hi my name is Carl Seltzer, I'm 20 years old and a sophomore here at ship. My major is geo/environmental studies and my minor is physics so I have a decent workload haha. I like to lift and exercise a lot at the rec center. I wrestled in High school at Central Dauphin high school and one of my teammates was Simon Rice who is also in this class. I'm from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and I like to just hang out and meet new people. I have two dogs named zoidy and jb. Zoidy is named after a character from Futurama because it's been my favorite show for almost 10 years. I can ride a unicycle pretty good and I'm not to bad racquetball. I'm a pretty open guy so I'll talk to anybody without judging them. If your nice to me I'll always be nice to you because I feel that respect is everything. I started learning German over the summer and now I finally got into a German class here at ship after waiting so long . I gotta say that I'm not to thrilled about having Nordai for Calc I but I honestly had no choice but to take him. I chose this class because I needed a diversity credit for my academic record but in all honesty I don't like the fact that ship demands a diversity credit because I feel like schools are trying to shove it down students throats. Diversity shouldn't be forced it should be a choice but trust me when I say that I'm the last person to show intolerance to people's color or ethnicity. The last book that I read on my free time was The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra. I read this book because my moms fiancee reccomended that I read it and I'm glad he did because it really opened up my eyes to the world around me. The book talked about meditation for maybe 15-20 minutes in the morning but also taking time out of your day to experience pure silence because according the Law of Pure Potentiallity, you experience the most creative ideas when you remain silent and lose yourself in your mind. Obviously some of the books may be like this book but most likely I'm expecting all of them to deal with racism and I highly disagree with the idea of white privilege. It may have existed 30 or 40 years ago but in the present world everybody in america is pretty much on the same level, even though bullcrap like affirmative action exsists but hey who the hell am I in the grand scheme of things. That's pretty much all you need to know about me but if you'd like to get to know me better don't be affraid to approach me in class.
