apathetic

ap•a•thet•ic/ˌapəˈTHetik/ Adjective: Showing or feeling no interest, enthusiasm, or concern. Synonyms: apathetical - listless - indifferent - unconcerned When we consider someone APATHETIC we are referring to their failure to become involved. When I went to college in the early 1970’s, a student once pointed to my APATHY over the Vietnam war and my failure to become more involved. He was right. The war scared me and I had come to college to have fun, not kill people. Make a mental picture to burn the image of this word into your mind. It can be someone with their arms folded refusing to consider being involved. It is your picture and your amazing mind. Don’t be APATHETIC! Get involved in building an extraordinary vocabulary with me.
