everyone needs a solid grounding in existentialism.

well...i can justify it, though it is a stretch? but it is a long story, involves vikings and little green frogs and bob marley.

marcel and kierkegaard do write beautifully. gabriel & so\ren, i'm honestly interested in them, so despite the sartre and camus, for their sake i will take such a course.

I've heard unfortunate things about 299.

(Not "I'm a neoconservative, empowerment is bad!" unfortunate. "Poorly thought-out curriculum with minimal insight" unfortunate.)

This might be out of date, however.

hm. i'll look into it.

also, i saw a course sometime last year that was called grassroots something-or-other, but it's disappeared. it was along these same lines, participatory/locale-based democracy...would take that instead, if i can find it. congratulations, by the way. saw council winner-people-notifications today in the gateway.

I can't believe you don't have even *one English course. Bah on your courselist.

I even went and checked out your University's website. It's intriguing that English and Film Studies share a department.

f - yes, well. also, i think all our drama groups should do a sendoff picnic on tuesday after class.

fathima - i know. i'm sorry, it is the sacrificial lamb of englisch kneeling before the altar of pragmatism.
as for FS & englisch - i'd never thought it was strange, had just accepted as the way it always has been. but now i see the logic behind it.

we plan and plan...and the plans fall apart. all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't put the plans back together again...

you're a philo major or a lib. art?

alan - done. i saw you walking yesterday with mustafa hirji, but had just gone running and was too tired to say hello.

sammerai - ha yes it is terribly self-absorbed, isn't it?

a bit of both.
