We usually have a "What classes are you taking?" thread, so here it is.

What kind of courses are you all taking? I'm spending the quarter finishing out my literature requirements and a business class, so after this it's only Operations Management and my major classes on out. I'm taking:


Introduction to Science Fiction
Shakespeare's Plays
Ethics of Mass Media
Producing for Single-Camera Productions
Business Finance


Dreading finance, but hey- I got a C- in Accounting. I've got this.

Well, I'm taking a few classes that I should've taken earlier, since I'm a senior and need to mop up some GE this new school threw at me, despite having an '04 catalogue year.

so...

Chinese 1A
Introductory U.S. History
U.S. Government
History of Christianity to the Enlightenment

considering I have a total of 160 units under my belt, this semester is what I would call shameful. The only remotely challenging class in this list is Chinese, and even that will be ridiculously easy.

Yeah. I just decided on that last semester, so I have to do all the rest of the classes this time.

School ended long ago....but My boys are home schooled and go by a Montessori curriculum. My oldest is " 5th" grade by the states records and doing 6-10th grade level work. My 6 year old is starting his official first grade level work.

Tis busy in the mornings but I wouldn't dream of sending them to a public school considering how the school system is now.

Communist.


hey they can read, and think for themselves that far surpasses the US public school system right now and it's " be a parrot and memorize only what we tell you so we can get more money from test results" now.

If that makes me a Commie then paint my ass red and point me to the nearest breadline.
