This theory class has gotten me excited about english again. I have spent all day reading about UW and various professors and thinking about grad school and wanting to learn more languages and publish things that I write and etc etc.
I am really excited all of a sudden to be going to this university. I feel like I am building a network of people at the school that are not only great resources, but are all genuinely awesome people. Excited for the present.
I also found this, via random research.
"In 1866, the first president of the University, William E. Barnard, lamented that:
Education throughout the [Puget] Sound District is in an extremely backward condition-as an illustration: not one of the misses attending the university the first quarter, after our arrival, could accurately repeat the multiplication tables…Society is also greatly disorganized. Drunkenness, gambling, licentiousness, profanity…We have two distilleries, eleven drinking establishments, one bawdy house…These are the influences we have had to encounter in our efforts to build up an institution of learning. I need not say it is discouraging and well-nigh hopeless."
I love this school.
also he, she, ze(?). is that the gender neutral thing?
does that mean man woman, zen?
