This is what my semester REALLY looks like:

PHIL4470: Concepts of the Soul
Crazy new-agey theology teacher discusses new-agey topics with the majority of class while supporting Cartesian dualism and renouncing the insights of science. Discussions of "energy" and "psychic nature" pending.

PHIL4300: Philosophy of Mind
Time centered Eastern-seaboard professora expects the class to read and question multiple lengthy readings per week. Challenging, but still exciting. Don't even consider going off topic!!

PHIL4812: Philosophy of Eros
Plato. Weekly class discussing homosexual and man-boy love. Thus far I've gathered that eros is based on the idea of a co-dependent relationship. Heaven is a sphere!!!

F_A 2012: Painting
Dropped! Due to crazy Hitler-esque professor who induced final-type stress during the first week of class. Those who fail to produce one masterpiece per week or thsoe who have three or more tardies should drop the course because they will automatically fail.
I dropped the course after spending over $200 on supplies. I continue to paint, however.

SOC 1001: Intro to Sociology
Replaced Painting. Expected to be an easy class taught by ol' Ed Casteel. Little did I know that he was the master of evil tests. You have foiled me once Mr. Casteel (81%) but do not think you will be so lucky next time!
