I am pleased with my advanced microbiology class next term. We're having a wine and cheese party at the end of the term, after we've spent the term making the wine and cheese.
Also I am glad that being in university biology courses opts me out of having to deal with retarded anti-evolutionary shit.

that reminds me of a classmate who looked me in the eyes and said "I don't beleive in atheists"
I'm a crazy whack-job fundy creationist type and I studied plenty of evolutionary theory. I liked pointing out debunked theories and experiments in high school. It was kinda immature, but our text books were about fifty years out of date. Low-hanging fruit and whatnot.
I don't have any problems with really stupid people or professors in my classes, other than the stress of all the crap I have to do threatening to overwhelm me at any minute
the only thing that gets me apart from that is the atrocious pronunciation of some of the kids in my spanish class. I don't have a perfect accent, but at least make the effort, people!
I have milton from office space as a physics professor.
A student asked a question about when we use phase constants in harmonics equations and he spent about three minutes trying to piece the explanation together. Another student ended up interrupting him and answering instead.

In high school German, people would get their vowels backwards. In German, you pronounce the second when there are two adjacent vowels, the opposite of English. They always tries to do it the English way.
When we did sports in conversation practice "Er schiess im Tor." came up a lot. Most of them said "Er scheiss in Tor." instead.
Most of the class didn't know why I was laughing most of the time.
They also insisted on saying "vick du" all the time, no matter how many times the teacher told them "verpiss dich" was a much more correct, if slightly more dynamic, equivalent. My high school German teacher was pretty alright.
good lord. I changed my mind about having stupid people on campus after reading the campus newspaper. it's completely embarrassing.
this week we had an article about the lolspeak phenomenon. one of the hard-hitting interviews that appeared last week was with a guy who wears cat ears around campus.

Holy shit
To: All engineering students
EVOLVE is a student club interested in artificial intelligence.
Specifically, their current project is to apply the genetic
algorithm to develop intelligent software agents in a simulated
environment. A software framework has been established
for agents that can see, hear, smell, collect energy, and move
around their environment. The agents have also shown the ability
to evolve useful behaviors, such as traverse a simple maze.
it's like they read my mind
could this be the first year I participate in an extracurricular activity?

It's good that your starting with low exposure. If you jump straight in the deep end you're likely to break something.
