SR, you need to help me: should I take Intro to Communications, which I don't want to do but have to do eventually and makes all my classes be Monday/Wednesday and drop Macroeconomics (and buy the book new at the bookstore and pay the postage to return it to Amazon zomg), or should I keep Macroeconomics and have to drive about half an hour each way on Tuesday/Thursday in addition to M/W classes? I don't really want to do Macro, either, but I have to take that as well because I got a D on it the first time and that can't stand for me to transfer to a real school.

OK, now I know the hardest thing I'll have to do this year - single spaced, 15 page+ report dealing with planetary formation. |
Maaaaaan, I don't want to do that! BTW Jon, while less than a third of my Calculus class was female, they were all pretty hot, although half of them were asian (and I suppose it's racist that I find that somewhat funny). Do the hot girls stick around for the upper level calculus/physics? And is Vector Calculus as scary as it sounds?
Oh, and my Circuits professor's name is Rassa Rassai, but she's a white woman with a German accent, wtf?

That hapened quite a while ago. I meant to make a thread about it but I forgot and I just posted it in here. People keep dying. :(

Whichever you want, I personally would prefer only Monday/Wednesday.

Henry, I suggest you take Communications and drop Macroecon. The less days you have to show up at school, the better. Plus you save gas money doing so.
My first day of school was today, except I still have a night class from 6:15-9. :( Thankfully it's only on Mondays.

Yeah, that's probably a good idea, I just don't want to write any more BS papers. But I guess Macro is also BS, meh.
So I just bothered to look up Rassa Rassai, and apparently everybody on Ratemyprofessors HATES her, but I have no other option...At least, though, it seems the people complaining took her distance learning course, and based on class today I can see how that would be absolutely terrible, her lectures was writing stuff on an overhead, and she couldn't keep the paper on screen, and she could correct it for us, but if she was doing it by herself she probably wouldn't. And she admitted that the video lectures she had on Blackboard were many years old. And f**k, if I really have to I have a very long Navy Electrical certification on my hard drive, I can just read that...

Still, I'm shocked. I didn't know he passed away. And now that it happened, I consider myself very lucky to have seen him live. His last show featuring a new composition that never appeared on any album and that he never presented befoere... It was recorded and it will be released eventually. I will get this album without doubt. It is a live album and even if I dislike live albums, I will have to get this one!

Hopefully it will destroy your hatred for live albums. I would say I'd get it but I probably won't.

Generally, I don't, and it hasn't really caused problems for me when I was completely ignoring it, and since I don't have a choice I'm going to stick with this, but I'm skipping the two economics courses that are M/W because when 100 people bother to complain that the tests have little to do with the lecture/book and he frequently goes on personal diatribes, that probably means something.

Economics professors are good at going on long rants/storytelling sessions. Actually, a lot of Business professors are.....
