Freebie Post
Every blogger at MIT gets one freebie post each term - the "these are the classes I am taking" post. Here's mine.
6.857 - Computer and Network Security
We've only had one class, so it's a bit of an unknown, but this looks to be a good survey class of common security problems and design patterns.
6.824 - Distributed Systems
This is looking to be a pretty awesome class. Who could resist the chance to write BarNFS? (aka "the first non-sucky network filesystem")
6.102 - Introductory RF Design Laboratory
Ron Roscoe... 'nuff said. But oh man, the first lab looks awful, and I have to do the first checkoff on Tuesday.
6.UAP - Undergraduate Advanced Project
I... uh... don't have a topic yet. But I need one by add date - this class is effectively "credit for writing an MEng project proposal".
21M.735 - Design for the Theater
This is my final HASS elective, a class where you basically learn how to be a Technical Director for a theater production.
STS.001 - Technology in American History
A HASS-D and CI-H, this class is the most awesome-looking HASS-D. It looks like it's going to be pretty reading-heavy, which could suck.
Sorry, I know I could elaborate more. But holy shit the New Orleans Saints won the SuperBowl and I'm a bit busy!
