week 6 dq post Vanessa Nash 

The more I think about it, does the way we formulate our future syllabus, class structures, study guides, etc. does that constitute our own scholarly library.

are we as phd candidates and future scholars, are we building our own x person library. Does the body of our work constitute its own unique to us form of information and in essence library.

Should we as scholars as part of a process be mindful of everything we do from the moment we enter our phd program till some point in the future are we building our own library. Are we building our own not only library of school of thought.

Most scholars prefer to work under someone else, a prominent and or named scholar, working under there direction. But Plato emerged after his boss was killed to form his own through, so did his begat Aristotle.

in the 21^st century; should this be made into a consideration. Should our work in the present be considered in some small degree an aspect of our own school of thoughts. Should we begin to build our own scholarly library now, and not wait till some future date when we have written 10k more words or 50k more words.

Each paper is about 2000 words, 6 per class is about 10k words. x 20 classes is itself 200k words, not including the Dissertation. Not including the dqs; which is about 50k more at the bare minimum.

300,000 words is a solid starter body of work. This body of work should not be just tossed to the side and forgotten, this body of work needs to be worked with and updated as we learn.

How should we in the 21^st century do that. These questions will answer how to conduct our classes, since our body of work comes from those classes. both the ones we take and those we teac.
