Gotta love German universities.

Ha! You assume American universities don't do the Exact. Same. Thing.

Good luck and let us know what you decide to take!

Sorry, clearly missing something here... Why is 4-6 on Tuesday bad?

Or rather, there's probably method to the madness, as it keeps the interesting seminars from being overcrowded and forces the students to take unpopular seminars that otherwise would end up almost empty.

But I only have this term and the next to find a topic for my thesis, and to lay the foundations for said thesis. If I don't find a seminar that helps me to lay some of those foundations, I'll be completely on my own. And I'm not sure I feel quite capable of really starting from scratch with my thesis...

(19th century stuff; the rise of unitarianism; art criticism; objectivism in American poetry)

I'm a unitarian! Did we once rise? Wow. I bet it took a really long time to get us all to agree to that.

Quotes unitarian badge purchased for her mother: "Unitarians are bad at congregational singing because they're always looking ahead to see if they agree with the rest of the lyrics." ;)

But, um, slightly more on topic, that sucks. I'm assuming distance learning or extra-curricular tutoring aren't other options? Yeah. That's dumb. Hang in there. You're almost done with uni!

The thing is, I'm only almost done if... hmpf May 3 2007, 20:26:22 UTC
I manage to find enough stuff to do this term. The way it's beginning to look I may well have to stay another semester, just to fill my required quota of seminars.

*annoyed*

Of course, that will also cost me a load of money. (700 euros *sigh*.)
