Yeah what is up with Poli Sci professors and publishing books that they use in class. Or one of their friend's book. It's always the poli sci profs too.
I had a Biology teacher who used a chapter of a book she was writing. And one of my English professors is currently writing a book about Digital Fiction which features a story I wrote 8-)

I had a creative writing professor who would always assign a book he had written for any class he taught.
Notice how I used dramatic irony to affect the reader in this passage.
...sure

The way he taught us was he just had us read short stories and poems, than expected us to write well. At no point did he actually discuss the process of writing creatively.
It was like if you took a film production class, the professor showed you Star Wars and said, "Now do that."

i had a professor who made us buy his books of poetry
he was a shitty professor as well
i dropped that class and took it with a grad student who was awesome
on the other hand, i had a classics professor who had us buy a book that included his translation of something... euripides? i forget, but it was great
Yeah I'm at a community college, but Cal said the instructors here were pretty great and so far I agree
I'm glad you're digging Seattle Central. It's honestly a fantastic school (though the students there can be obnoxious as shit sometimes).
It's probably the second best community college I've been to.
how many have you attended?

I am now enrolled in Journalism at the local CC. The classes are held on the high school campus however. Also judginf from last weeks science test I did not retain any chemistry. Being bad at science is why I will never become a scientist, as interesting as I think it is.
so i applied to the u of oregon's master's program in accountancy about two months ago
one month later i got a reply from the director of the program, telling me that she reviewed my application and it was excellent; but she had a concern about my planned prerequisite courses being insufficient
so she asked me to apply to portland state univ. and get the stuff done over spring and summer quarters
i replied that i would get it done and never got a response back
am i screwed for admission?

Muse, make that fashion thread already. I washed my raw denim jeans today because I got salt water and/or oyster juice and a decent amount of dirt on them and I have nowhere to talk about it.

In high school my best friend was the president of our local FBLA chapter and convinced me to sign up. I said sure and told her to put me down for whatever activity she felt I would be good at. Later on I learned she put me in Impromptu Speech, the hardest activity, because she wanted to punish me.

have you written about prom dresses yet? I am pretty sure you can fill the rest of the OP with prom dress words.

this happens all the time in intro quantum mechanics, and it's really fucking annoying because it takes about an entire page of working to do all the integrals and you can't guess and check
man I wonder how easy/difficult it would be to make my food once in college. Fuck meal plans. I don't want to deal with that.
I have seen some communal kitchens on college visits
some were nice
and some, when looked at, made me die inside.
If I go to UO, I am going to immediately start looking for an apartment because I really want a kitchen and also livingroom space. Fuck being in a 2 person walk-in closet for 8 months at a time.

Eww, the UCs require you purchase a meal plan. I can confidently say that I will not use the meal plan often. What a spectacular waste of money, some thousands of dollars I will not use. I am very demanding taste-wise and easily bored. I'd sooner skip a meal than eat bland food (which I do all too much actually).

It seems that your professor failed on a variety of levels.
but there are, uh, other parts that merit exploration as well
did you at least get critiqued or was it a cuddly class
It's probably the second best community college I've been to.
One of the Sounders is doing a thing here on Thursday I am so psyched
I blame everyone but myself.
Nothing can ever die if you believe in it hard enough.
school hasn't started yet and i'm already behind!

Because you didn't want to go up or the class sucked?
I had this happen so many times with polynomial stuff that the first thing I do is put 0 in for all the variables just in case.
