Peer Evaluation for Evan

Evan's topic was regarding something that everyone on campus has been trying to do since they've arrived in Durham; involvement on campus. The purpose was how his involvement with campus life has required him to have good time management, and has led to him being less stressed. He related the topic very well to our daily lives. He discussed things on campus, talked about student life, and mentioned how 3/4 of the students are involved in some manner on campus. What stood out from his speech was a statistic he gave us, as he said how 90 hours of our week can be devoted to involvement on campus, hanging with friends, and any other kind of social activity. After hearing the speech, I'm more curious to know if there is actually a correlation between stress level and level of involvement. One would think that the more you are involved, the more stressed you might be. But on the contrary, like Evan, it could lead you to better time management skill. Overall, a good job by Evan presenting the speech. The one thing I had for advice was to try to be more fluent. That can be a general comment for many people's speeches as well.
