Two weeks ago, I attended the freshmen orientation at the University of Minnesota. It was a two-day event full of presentations, questions and answers. In effort to ease the transition from high school to college and university in general. I had a wonderful group leader with cat jokes and kidding, just kidding joy.
My fall schedule is a bit spaced out. For three days a week, I have a packed morning, a dismal afternoon and a short evening. I do get to leave early on Friday though. Thursday are packed throughout so it’ll be like working. This schedule actually has me doing more than when I was in high school. I always thought it would end up being less.
Blue is for English/Writing/Freshmen Composition. Green is for the introductory College of Science & Engineering class. Red is for Physics, some of those are problem sessions, lectures and labs – I’ll update accordingly. Yellow is for Math/Calculus 1, some are labs and some are lectures, I’ll update accordingly. Purple is for Computer Science classes, something about Data Structures and SOO.
As you can see, three days a week, I have a huge gulf in my schedule. I tried to minimize that as much as I possible could but I was unable due to CSCI 1901 only being offered at that time. At least I get an early Friday.
I’ll have to catch the bus around 7:15 to get down there by 7:55 for class to start, but I think I’ll manage. I am indeed looking forward to classes but a little so for Welcome Week.
As I get more details about what these classes really are about, I’ll share my stories here and of course, I’ll be updating my calendar to accurately reflect any changes that I may encounter.
Happy scheduling!
Trust me, by second semester you’ll wonder why you ever scheduled a class before 9 (maybe 10) am.
I hear that a lot but I figured I wouldn’t exactly care as I’d been having classes before 9/10am for the last ten years. Even so, it was kind of forced upon me as there weren’t lot of options for that particular schedule since CSCI 1901 locked me in.
