MON: Period 1: Cunk: How To Science Things All Sciencily

[heroic_jawline]

Have you ever wondered why we only have laps when we sit down? Are you befuddled by the leaves and how they managed to get up there? And sure, they say the sky is blue, but sometimes it's more sort of reddish or purple so you've got to wonder really what they're doing to it, like maybe an angel got shot up there, or the sky's done a bad dye job, like.

In this class, we will work on these problems and science them as if we are science men. For science.

TUES: Period 1: Aphra: Archeology For Fun and Profit!

[heroic_jawline]

The galaxy is vast, and old and full of things that want to kill you. Which means that the galaxy is also full of dead people who left all their stuff behind for other people to find! And study! Or sell to other people to study! Which is where archaeologists come in because if you don’t fill in the right paperwork it’s just graverobbing.

And that’s bad.

Anyway, let’s face it, the universe is going to get you eventually, so you might as do something interesting before it does. Like my class!

WEDNESDAY

[heroic_jawline]

WED: Period 1: Mayer: Resolving Conflict Without Violence

[heroic_jawline]

Life is full of difficult questions, and it’s hard to find the answers alone. We’ll examine these questions in an environment of group and paired discussions, but we acknowledge that arriving at firm answers is often impossible. Instead, we’ll focus on how to think with one another, and share our ideas productively. Topics are likely to include: sacrificing the few for the good of the many, the limits of self-sacrifice, and when it is appropriate to take a life.

FRIDAY

[heroic_jawline]

FRI: Period 1: Lecter: Philosophy of Food

[heroic_jawline]

This class will be a look into the thoughts about, ethics of, and culture surrounding food. The class experience will include a wide variety of food as an entry towards discussion.

Class topics will include (but are not limited to):

- What is food?
What makes something “food”? How do cultural and individual preferences affect this?
- Why do we eat?
Is sustenance the only reason for consumption of food? What pleasure do we derive from food, and why? What other significance do we attach to it?
- Food culture:
What other aspects of civilization revolve around food? How does the way we address food relate to the way we address the world?
