I really had te wrong impression of the seventies. I was always under the impression that the seventies was all about going out to discos and snorting coke. Although that is partially true, the seventies was actually a pretty "full" time, in the sense that a lot of signifigant things happened.
I always had the impression that Nixon was a huge "crook", but i never knew what for. The 1970's group did a good job breifly and effectively explaining the watergate scandal and its effect on american society.
I also enjoyed the fun activites the seventies group had us do. "The Price is Right" was both entertaining and informative. It also was a great segway into the oil crisis. We had a good discussion about the middle east and why we dont like them. It was very helpful in understanding our current situation with iraq and iran. The Electric slide was a great way to end the seventies. Though the "Hustle" wasn't as simple as the Electric slide, everyone had a blast making fools out of themselves!!
