January 15, 200818 yr Big mistake, took a day class. I have shirts older than most all of the people in my Bio lecture, including the professor. Everyone was pre-this and pre-that. Pre-pharmacy Pre-med, I told them I was pre-nap, damn whomever thought of 7:45 am classes was an idiot without any social skills. Anyone who willingly signs up for one is worse. The lab on the other hand is run by a TA who I had no idea if it was a man or woman. She warned us she can be sarcastic. Yeah, like that's going to be a problem. I am really pumped for my linguistics class. The professor is currently guest lecturing in India and is conducting this class on-line from her apartment there. Skype, IM, message boards. She was concerned that, as an older student, I might not have any experience with message boards. I assured her I would struggle through some how, but if she could cut me a little slack, I would sincerely appreciate it. Then my killer night, Thursday. Three and a half hours of early English Lit from the age of FlaSoxxJim 400 AD to the last Cub world series 1746. Followed by three and a half hours of Beat Generation writers. From Paradise Lost to Road Trips with Kerouac and Cassady. What I ride that will be.
January 15, 200818 yr I have Comparative Politics, I think that's going to be a hard class because the Prof. seems to expect a lot from us. History of Iowa is probably going to be my favorite class, don't laugh, haha, I like Iowa History. I also have a seminar in Public Administration which focuses on leadership roles and other things, not quite sure yet since I haven't had it. I have an independent study wihch is Applied Public Budgeting. It's a required class, yet they do not teach it at all which sucks. Lastly I have Environmental Technology. I do not know what this is going to be about, but we have to take a capstone and this is a capstone. I'm probably going to drop Geographic Information Systems or GIS because I don't know anything about computers. So I will be at 14 credits.
January 15, 200818 yr Last semester of college so I have 4 100 level classes, 1 200 level, and 1 400 level. Should be a breeze
January 15, 200818 yr Author QUOTE(SnB @ Jan 15, 2008 -> 04:27 PM) Last semester of college so I have 4 100 level classes, 1 200 level, and 1 400 level. Should be a breeze I wish I could have scheduled something like that. It looks like my last semester will consist of three 4000 level (Senior) and two 6000 level (Grad). The University allows Undergrads to take 6 hours of grad school classes. So I figure why not get a head start plus I'm still undecided between English and Psychology.

January 16, 200818 yr Last semester in high school coming up! Basically got three AP classes going, with one finishing up now as a semester long one and not a yearlong. But really only my English AP class is hard, the rest like Stats and Latin are really easy, and then I have Advanced law (which i am told is a blowoff class), Optimist (im an editor/sports reporter for the school newspaper) and Trailblazers (where we are assigned an elementary school kid and tudor them n such, which by the way is a very cool program we have). I cant wait for it to begin!! Woot!
January 17, 200818 yr Author From one of my professor's syllabus, Post-Course Policy: The material taught in this course is covered by a kind of informal "warranty." If you pass this course with a "C" or better, please feel to ask me any questions---throughout your academic career---on any material covered in this course---especially material whose lack of understanding interferes with your doing well in other classes. How about if a I fail the class with a grade of "C" or better?

January 20, 200818 yr Last semester, taking my capstone class, which is supposed to be hell, so I decided to skip out on a finance minor (off by a credit, but didn't care about it that much, and the class missing would be the hardest one) and replaced it with an easy 100 level course.
