<p>Well I’m glad you enjoyed your class so much, marite. 
I don’t mean to insinuate that I didn’t like mine – because, trust me, I loved it – but I just don’t go for all the culture content. Enough to understand the context of the language is fine, but if I wanted a deep discussion of Rome or Greece then I would have taken Classical Civilizations. I’d much rather be writing, learning new words, or working to memorize that ridiculous amount of inflection, lol.</p>
<p>nngmm: That is a very good idea. Unfortunately, I had my two teacher recs panned out for the head of the Social Studies Dept. and the Language Arts Dept. Would there be a place I could submit a third rec?</p>
<p>EDIT: I’ll definitely look into those colleges. However, I believe Grinnell is an extremely liberal campus? Can anyone confirm? I’m liberal, but not anywhere close to the “far left”, and I some of the stuff they aspouse completely turns me off. I don’t think I could live on campus with that for an extended period of time.</p>
