Today's classes certainly kept me awake the entire time. It hardly mattered which class it was, as most of mine tie into politics somehow. It included one discussion over whether or not we'd enlist in the army. Though the class was evenly split over whether or not we should go to war, the overwhelming consensus was that should it happen, the male students would enlist, and many of the female students wished to join the Nurse Corps. A few even argued that the military should streamline the approval of women joining active combat so they too could enlist. The manpower (womanpower? people power?) it would take to fight such a war could overpower concerns about unit cohesion. And most everyone agreed lifting Don't Ask Don't Tell after the first world war hasn't hurt any.

As much as I've preferred discussions about how an active war affects the process of incorporating women into combat roles, this situation feels more like a city-wide or country-wide version of the tesseract event a few months ago where people thought they were in the Wild West or high school or something like that. Rather than what 1941 actually was like. But so long as no new wars or battles actually take place, I see little harm.
