<p>Thanks to a very helpful '08er in the LJ community, we can now check out the Fall</a> 2005 Freshman Seminars! Apparently some have received the package in the mail already, so we'll be getting the written copy soon. Online application begins on July 12th. Get excited!</p>
<p>Oh, and Gianievve, they still have Consciousness: Brain and Mind! I remember you saying you were interested in that one too. I'm almost certain I'm going to take that one. Yay! :D</p>
<p>yayyyy!! At last. Thanks for posting phil (Philntex - CC's eagle eyes). :) How are you guys able to catch this stuff the day it comes out!?!</p>
<p>Can we only take the seminars in OUR residential college?</p>
<p>the freshman seminars are MAD COOL. ughhhh only 5 class choices per semester... but i wanna take like TEN!</p>
<p>no you can take freshman seminars in any college AFAIK</p>
<p>Afaik? .</p>
<p>as far as i know :) AFAIK</p>
<p>But we don't know whether we've been assigned to a writing seminar in fall or spring yet... </p>
<p>09ers - Which seminars are you interested in?
08ers - Which seminars would you recommend?</p>
<p>Freshman Seminars I'd like to take in order of preference</p>
<p>1.Consciousness:Brain and Mind
2.Into the Wood! What Disney didn't tell you about Fairy Tales
3.The Myth and Reality of Espionage
4. Dante's Inferno
5.Tokyo in Literature and Film</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>These are FRESHMAN seminars, not writing seminars, right? And even ifi we are assigned a writing seminar we can take a freshman one that same semester? How many freshman seminars are we limited to? And they fulfill dist requirements? I'm so embarrassed that I don't know anything.</p>
<p>Yes, what is the maximum number of seminars we can take in a semester?</p>
<p>Such - cool list! Anyone want to take the Ocean Environment one? It sounds interesting...</p>
<p>1 per semester I think</p>
<p>awww. Do you think they'd let us take 2 if we REALLY wanted to take 2, but they're offered in the same semester?</p>
<p>heh, i didn't take a freshman seminar last year. i was too lazy to do the app.</p>
<p>oh well.</p>
<p>dunno gia - maybe we should ask.</p>
<p>the Tokyo in literature and film one is really cool, and i like the one on the red/blue divide (politics is a fascination of mine), there were like 2 others i cant remember. havent even read through the spring seminars yet.</p>
<p>(lol i think tokyo's the only overlap between me and sucharita)</p>
<p>You can take any seminar -- the classes will just take place in the seminar rooms in the college that hosts them.</p>
<p>My rankings would be:</p>
<p>1) FRS 111 The Ocean Environment [ST]</p>
<p>This is by far the best choice among them in my opinion -- you get to go to Bermuda over Fall Break to snorkel!</p>
<p>2) FRS 149 Active Geological Processes [ST]</p>
<p>A fun course, and you get to go on a trip which is supposed to be quite cool.</p>
<p>3) FRS 163 German Expressionism [LA]</p>
<p>Da Costa Meyer is an excellent professor + this should be a fun course.</p>
<p>FRS 111 is definitely the best though; I would apply for that #1 no matter what.</p>
<p>oh yeah there was a course about the evolution of music from brahms to trance or something like that. sounds cool.</p>
<p>nice it looks like people really have varied interests and we might all get what we want.</p>
<p>I like the Disney one and the Holy Ordinary one. Does The Ocean Environment fulfill lab science requirement?</p>
<p>yeah thats the best part. i never thought i would find an enjoyable LA course!</p>
<p>well, not the best part. but a good perk.</p>
<p>all of them sound pretty interesting, but my preferences are:::::
1) Eco. of env. protection
2) ethics of war
3) sex, money and rock n roll
4) politics n religion in ancient world :)</p>
