<p>I was an engineering major who loves the liberal arts however I have found that appreciation and gaining knowledge in them can be attained in many different ways. I got classwork in by concentrating non-tech electives in arts, social sciences and music. I regularly attended free concerts, plays and lectures offered on and off campus. And most important I have been a lifelong reader and concert/theater attendee.</p>
<p>I am perhaps the only person in America currently reading Sir Walter Scott’s Guy Mannering on my NOOK at the present time. Quite good btw if you can manage to decipher Scott’s local colloquial dialogue found throughout the book, kind of like peter Matthiessen’s Far Tortuga.</p>
