Top Comments of this video!! :3
I'm a Japanese middle schooler who has just finished watching this very first video of the whole course, but I can't help saying these things on my mind...
I found lots of things in this lecture impressive and amazing (sorry, words can't explain this well enough).
First, Professor Michael Sandel takes all ideas from his students seriously. I definitely wanna take his course at least once in my life. Thanks to him, I became much more interested in philosophy and ethics. I came to enjoy thinking. I can feel that he values and adores philosophy.
Second, students are very active and participating, eager to learn and gain knowledge, and also witty. In Japan, it is said that 50 percent of high schoolers enroll in university, but in most cases, they don't actually want to study. They just want friends, someone to love, and things like that. I mean, it's so horrible that most of those students go to university just because everyone else does. Of course, I have never attended a class in a Japanese university, but in both my elementary and middle school, I noticed that everyone remained quiet and hardly spoke. I always feel uncomfortable in a situation like that. But in Harvard, they have their own thoughts and are open to sharing them with others.
I profoundly want to study in this kind of environment.
I can’t thank everyone involved in this program enough for making such a splendid video and providing it for free to all of us. I'm going to keep watching this series of lectures!

I wish I had made a harder attempt and strive to pursue some type of education in this school/university. It just at the time seemed to out of reach and complicated. Now watching this I can't help but feel I could have been sitting in one of those seats learning and engaging my mind. I wish anyone who attempts their courses and is trying to graduate the best of luck and please use this opportunity to better things for us all in the world.
