"You call this archaeology?"
So I figured, while I'm thinking about and am logged into Blackboard, that I'd post my schedule for the coming semester now. Because you guys know I know you all are DYING to see what classes I'm taking! XP
Monday
MAC1105-60 - College Algebra (Recitation): 3:35 - 4:25 PM
Tuesday/Thursday
MAC1105-60 - College Algebra: 11:00AM - 12:15 PM
REL3936-01 - Religion & Fantasy Lit.: 12:30 - 1:45 PM
ANT2138-01 - World's Greatest Shipwrecks: 2:00 - 3:15 PM
ARH2090-01 - Great Discoveries in Archaeology: 3:35 - 4:50 PM
AMH2020-04 - History of U.S.: 5:15 - 6:30 PM
As you can see, I pretty much have no time in between classes to do much of anything, but I can't afford to drop any classes b/c if I keep up with just 13 hours a semester, I'll never graduate in time. And I can't take sign up for any Monday/Wednesday/Friday classes right now b/c first day attendance is mandatory and I won't be able to attend that first Monday (since I'll be on my way back from Chicago). I'm actually liking the set up...will keep me focused. It also means I'll have to start bringing food with me (snacks at least) on Tuesdays/Thursdays since I won't have time to stop anywhere in between.
In other school related news, have received this email a few times from the school regarding the Anthropology department and the budget (they have apologized to all who will be receiving it multiple times, but are sending it out at certain times during the registration period):
Rationale
As a consequence of the Universitys recent budget reduction, the Department of Anthropology is part of a restructuring taking place within the College of Arts and Sciences. Because the Universitys budget situation has not yet stabilized, the Administration has decided to suspend access to the existing degree programs for one year.
Consequences for Undergraduate Students
We anticipate that students at the junior and senior levels will have up to two years to complete their degree requirements, independent of the specific changes that result from restructuring. In other words, our intention is to provide the upper-level course offerings for the next two years. Students should not assume that upper-level Anthropology courses would be available as options after two years. Recent entries into the Anthropology major should plan accordingly.
So I'm pretty much safe at the moment...there's only like two more specifically required classes I need to take, and a few more elective credits I need in my Anthropology area. I just need to make sure I keep going with at least one Anthro. class a semester...though it would be safer to do two. But I'll work it out. As long as I can complete my degree, I'm pretty satisfied!
Alrighty, now that I have officially bored you with this school stuff, I am going to go restart my Tudors rewatch...and then possibly read more of the Burn Notice novel. XD
