What's Next?

So I had to take a pass on taking Mandarin in Winter -- I was dead sick at the beginning of the quarter, and then off traveling for over a week later in the month. Losing almost two weeks of class time is bad in any 10-week class, losing almost two weeks from a 10-week Mandarin kills, it kills you deadly. So, ho hum here we go I'm off cycle again, waiting for the next class to come around on the guitar. I can possibly talk my way into the second-year third quarter class in Mandarin, I guess I could try to talk my way into the third year third quarter class for the heck of it, or I could do Something Completely Different. I guess I could probably take The Swedish Novel with no problems, but right this minute I'm not feeling it. The statistics course is, sadly, full, and the Art Department is snotty about letting non-matriculated students take classes. So, if you could take one random university course right now, what would it be?

Meanwhile, because they are there: cherry blossoms!

Something to do with urban forestry.

I hope you were sitting down for that shocking revelation.

I took Landscape Architecture 322 Intro to Planting Design and it was terrific. The instructor is Scottish and great fun to listen to. The Time Schedule says it's "restricted" but only during Reg periods I and II. It's open to non-majors and it's nowhere near full.

A physical anthropology course. Or an art history course because I've never taken one.

Farsi, but only because we've been spending Friday afternoons with a Persian family...

Rodney Stark on cults, because I could never get into that course when he taught it at the UW.

Speaking just for my own personal tastes, the two departments that I didn't take, or didn't take enough, courses in during college that I later regretted neglecting were Linguistics and Rhetoric.
