So the first week of school for my final semester is over. So far both classes seem like they will be alright, and actually interesting to me. They’re both econ related, but one is a public policy class, and the other is a political science class. Perhaps after these two classes I will have a better idea of if I really want to try my hand at politics in the future. I have a feeling I will still have a strong desire to do so. A quick glance at the the Colorado State University website shows at Political Science masters program… Not that I’ve finished my BS (hey, it’ll be 14 years when I finish in May) but maybe taking some classes at CSU would be an interesting thing to do.
I think that will generate another blog post over on www.going2colorado.com tonight…
I am finally working on my economics paper that I need to finish up before the end of the semester. I hate that it has taken me this long to get started, but with all of my travelling this semester I've not had any free time to do this. The topic is "The Economic Impact of Wind Energy on Surrounding Communities", if you have any information you think might be useful for my paper please feel free to send it my way!
Well I went to school this evening and dropped a course. I realized I was going to be missing 8-10 classes in this course alone this fall due to all of the trips scheduled, so I figured I would take some of my load off and only have one course this fall, intermediate micro. I still have a course to finish up from this summer, before the end of the fall semester, and after all the conferences and traveling are done I will probably sign up for an online course. That will leave me two classes left next spring to finish up my BS in Economics.
Today marks the first day of classes at UMSL For the Fall 2008 Semester. I'm taking two economics courses this semester as well as finishing up a course from this summer. With class and all of my work trips coming up it is going to be a busy fall!
Well I finally, after two days of trying to tell UMSL that I already met with an advisor, got my classes for Spring 07 scheduled. I'm signed up for two Economics classes on Mondays and Wednesday evenings.
$1600 bill for those, not to mention whatever books will cost me, and the oh so wonderful UMSL parking...
At lunch I ran up to UMSL to get reenrolled for classes. On 11/20 I should be able to register for classes. Luckily nothing has changed since the last time I took classes at UMSL, I don't have to retake any classes, I was worried that credits would expire or something, I guess that's just a nasty...
Everything I ever learned in school must be a lie! I was always taught there were 9 planets in our Solar System, now there are only 8! Lies lies lies, next someone will tell me that 1+1 is not equal to 2!!! Oh the...
