This morning I met with my department’s degree clearance officer. Once again, he’s the guy who decides whether or not people in my department graduate, and whether or not their programs are worthy of a Rensselaer degree. Apparently the courses I’ve taken so far has been deemed worthy, and everything is on course for me to graduate next spring! That’s a year earlier than I’m really supposed to graduate. That’s good news, it would kinda suck to have to stick around for another semester to take just one more class.
We got our Discrete Structures midterm scores back today. I mentioned that the instructor (a grad student) was a little displeased at our performance based on his initial flippings through the exam when we handed them in on Monday. There was one A, two B’s, and 11 C’s, and a few D’s. I was one point away from a B, but if he had curved the grades I would have had a solid to high B. He seemed really disappointed in us, but then again he did blow through the material, I’m not sure what he is expecting out of us!
Tonight I had my first Abnormal Psych class in a few weeks. The instructor has been out of town at a conference and he didn’t hold two of the classes, and we missed a day for Memorial Day. I really like this class, it’s great! I always enjoyed psychology in high school, especially stuff related to relationships. I’m particularly looking forward to Human Sexuality next summer session. Sometime I will post more about my psych class.
So what’s next? My Discrete instructor assigned homework today due on Friday. Crazy stuff. Last time he gave us a week to do it. But at least it’s not quite as many problems. I still have to get cracking on that!
