<p>What are these seminars that we are supposed to be signing up for?</p>

<p>^bumpbumpbump
also which classes do you recommend to take or avoid??</p>

<p>Are you guys CAS? I haven’t heard anything about signing up for seminars…</p>

4

<p>I received the seminar signup link and I am a CAS. Is it supposed to be formal classes or just compulsory activities that won’t be even on transcript?
Wonder which one to take…</p>

<p>If it’s anything like senior seminar classes, it will be a small group of student (less than 20) in an open-discussion type of class. </p>

<p>Although, I’m not sure which seminars you’re referring to…</p>

<p>CAS 2016…I received the same thing in my email. I am wondering which seminars should be avoided, too. Actually, I am truly interested in several of them, but still cannot decide.</p>

<p>I already chose five, but I’m afraid that these will interfere with my normal college classes…what if they do? And what are “Required Cohort Meetings?” Signing up for five of these seminars made my schedule so tight I’m barely gonna have time to eat and rest…</p>

<p>i think they will give you only one, not all five of them. like what you put at top will be your top choice, but if they cannot place you into that one, they will put you into the second one. which five did you choose??</p>

<p>oh thank you! That’ll make my schedule much more flexible. I’m into biology/neuroscience so I chose a lot of scientific ones. I chose:

  1. From Mind To Brain and Back Again
  2. Guitar Heroes and Heroines: Music, Video Games, and Nature of Human Cognition
  3. Disease and History: Epidemics and Pandemics
  4. Physics at Accelerators
  5. The Doctor’s Dilemma: Being both Correct and Right</p>

<p>if you’re talking about the Freshman Honors Seminars…don’t take them. Everyone I know that did regretted it. Some of them can be pretty work-intensive. And it’s purely elective credit-doesn’t count towards any major. Better get all your gen-ed and pre-reqs out of the way early.</p>

<p>you have to choose and take, cant refuse to i think</p>

<p>yeah this is a new thing for CAS… Its like to help build community as they move away from having a summer orientation. </p>
