So I get to take electives this year! Since I'm doing a 16-course concentration AND a secondary field, my schedule was pretty packed. But anyway, here's the courses I'll be taking.
Music 99r (two semseters) - this is my thesis tutorial.
I need to take two more music seminars. I'm almost definitely taking a course on Shakespeare Music offered in the spring, so I'm basically deciding between two different 20th-Century music courses. I'm either going to take Concert Music After 1945, which is pretty interesting but not really my thing, or Early African American Musical Theater, which would be AWESOME but it's actually a graduate seminar, so it might be out of my depth. I also have some other choices, like Medieval Instrument Music (ugh, but I love the professor) or 19th & 20th Century Performance Practice.
I need to take a class that fulfills my Social Analysis requirement. This is almost definitely going to be my least favorite class this semester. Right now, I'm deciding between a class on American Health Care Policy (something I want to know, but I'll probably hate the class), and some more anthro-type stuff (knowledge of language, language and culture, some class on China.)
Then, I get electives! Some that look really interesting are a course of Jazz Theory (probably just going to audit), a course on Sex in the Bible (the professor is a FTM transsexual, and although it's probably really un-PC to say that, I find that really exciting), Intro to Yiddish Culture (SO EXCITED!), Intro to Art History, a lot of cool-looking English classes, some African American Studies classes, and some comparative religion classes. I'm also maybe going to take a class at the Graduate School of Education, because that would be cool.
