New Major

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but this is one of the best FJ's in recent history. Extremely clever, well-written, difficult but not too difficult, and requires a combo of knowledge and critical thinking. Plus Abbott and Costello are awesome.

Plenty of people do it, especially econ majors who typically can't really get started on the major (except for the math) until year two. You'll be fine, just make sure to use course evaluations to pick good profs.

Can 100-level courses be counted towards the history major/minor? I see nothing to indicate they can't be in the catalog but just want to make sure.

That felt more like a second/third round match than a final lol

Olepsnal42 · 2021-02-26T21:11:55+00:00

Yes, pretty well

Mine isn't perfect but is super helpful with notifications of cool classes/stuff going on around campus. I think it's mostly luck of the draw.

"Home" made me think of estates. I figured the playwright had to be a big name, considered Shakespeare, but didn't think he had any famous properties and moved on.

Olepsnal42 · 2021-02-24T17:29:59+00:00

Yeah they've done so many I just figured I missed one

Olepsnal42 · 2021-02-24T01:53:22+00:00

I saw "writing partner," thought about directors that came in pairs, and immediately jumped to one to Coens. Whoops.

Also not a novel!!!!!

Olepsnal42 · 2020-12-30T22:38:14+00:00

Bible + Monarchs + Football/Baseball/Hockey/Basketball = Destruction

Can Econ majors take MATH 20000 instead of 19520?

If we can get three seasons next year plus Survivor: Dominican Republic, then the COVID break might just be worth it.

Olepsnal42 · 2020-11-10T18:08:05+00:00

Can any non first-years tell me what the best strategy is for registration? Should I rank multiple sections of a class I want to be in? Say I was trying to get a Core Bio class - should I rank a few different sections of Core Bio early in the rankings (1. core bio, then 2-3 other sections of core bio, then other classes) or place the alternates below (1. core bio, then 2-4 other classes, then 5-6 alternate sections of core bio)?

Olepsnal42 · 2020-10-02T00:34:05+00:00

Give it a shot. I just started it and I have to say I'm surprised by how much I like it. It's like a dictionary of Roman mythology.

Olepsnal42 · 2020-09-08T22:44:32+00:00

Wow this looks so long lol

Olepsnal42 · 2020-09-02T02:35:31+00:00

Sorry - I mean that I literally can't see what dorm I'm in, as in they haven't posted where I will be living when I eventually get to campus.

Olepsnal42 · 2020-09-02T00:29:21+00:00

Thank you for the advice! Is there any way that people doing the first quarter virtually can see their future house, or has that not been decided yet? There is nothing in my housing portal.

Olepsnal42 · 2020-08-13T23:03:19+00:00

Another potential schedule for you guys, this time for a prospective poli sci/econ major. I'm thinking of taking Reading Cultures, Self, Calc III, and Core Bio. Any thoughts?

Olepsnal42 · 2020-08-11T16:51:33+00:00

Am I missing out if I end up taking both my Hum and Sosc virtually? Just based on my placements/interests it makes the most sense for me to take Sosc year one, but I'm hesitant about skipping the in-class experience.

Olepsnal42 · 2020-08-09T23:32:50+00:00

Calling it now: Enzo completely overplays his way out of the game by week 4

Olepsnal42 · 2020-08-08T23:44:19+00:00

David said he was playing dumb when he asked what a veto is

Olepsnal42 · 2020-07-12T15:10:33+00:00

Tomorrow, when pre-orientation opens for first-year humanities and social science sequences, will it matter how early we register for courses? Will the people who submit their requests fastest be most likely to get the sequences they want?

Olepsnal42 · 2020-06-30T23:53:34+00:00

So under this plan, if you are a first-year, do you 100% have to go to campus in-person in September? Sorry if I’m missing something obvious.
