Over here my major is called Classics- its a mixture of ancient language and literature courses and cultural/history courses. I'm mainly interested in the history/culture part, but I had to learn the languages at some point, so I went for this over a degree in history.

Thats bloody awesome. I wish we had a course like that. What university are you going to?

Intro to ancient Greek is a language course- we learn ancient Greek, which apparently is going to suck lots of balls. I'll need lots of luck for that fucker. And "The Art of Listening" is essentially a bullshit music class for non music students where we do a bit of music history, easy musical theory and listen to classical music. It should be a fun, easy class- the kind of class you can study ancient greek in and still do fine.

What kind of social and political philosophy are you studying?

And good luck to everyone!

i was accepted into an MSc programme, but don't know if i'm enrolling or not.
Investments + Corporate Finance
Analysis of Industry and Competition
Foundations of Marketing Planning
Human Resource Management + Research Methods for Management

a plus between subjects means they're half-semester.

it sounds too "general" for me, too much theory, and almost nothing on operations which is what i want to study.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to that one since I've learned a lot already about the Classical Age in school and by my own. I'm going to the Catholic University of Leuven

Ok my cousin did a similar degree at Laval University and they called it "Études anciennes" which I translated to ancient studies.
He also had history and culture of ancient civilizations like the greek, roman and egyptian history amongst other while at the same time learning som ancient languages. It's basically tools and Archeologist whould need.

Anyhow, good luck with your classes!

Greek looks so gnarly to learn. I wanted to learn Russian but like Greek I feel an entirely new alphabet would be too difficult to learn well enough to use it easily. It'd be sort of like learning Latin cases; I couldn't memorize them well enough to recite them easily. I had to look nearly half of them up and it slowed me down so much. It's impressive that you're attempting to learn multiple languages at one time.

The social and political philosophy class is supposed to have the ideas of Plato, Burke, Locke, Rousseau, Mill, Toqueville and Dewey and other stuff like that.

I took a history course last year about the Black Plague and Witch hunts in Europe. It was so cool.

I've heard that Micro-economics is a much more pleasant experience than Macro-economics. A guy in my current math class took both last summer. He said they were both fantastic and suggested that everyone should take them but he said that Macro caused many headaches for him.

Either way it looks like you'll be busy Kathaarian. Good luck with all of it. :wink:

Linear B is great fun to read.

And Brahm, hope you get to do August's Res Gestae Divi Augusti. If you're even mildly interested in politics, you'll find it a blast to translate and read. But it's far more likely you will get Vergilius or Ovidius, of course. Not necessarily worse. Can't go wrong with that period.

hot damn. i took Information Technologies and Management Information Systems, both of which basically amounted to database design and implementation. not my cup of tea at all, but it's important to have some notions. MIS was the coolest, you created your own business model and made an information system for it from scratch. that was the cool part, unfortunately it had a lot of that UML crap which i can't stand. ugh.
