Exactly. Like Joyce's allusion to the Icarus/Daedalus/labyrinth myth in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, among many others I encountered in my lit/comp class last year.

Has anyone actually taken Classics 30?

Just read Hamilton's Mythology. Otherwise, you're stuck reading like, Sophocles and Aeschylus when they aren't directly relevant. That and get annotated books in the instance that you, for some reason, cannot take Classical Mythology. Or better, get a sample of the syllabus and pick and choose what do you think is appropriate - or even BETTER, talk to your professor about motifs and allusions that you could absolutely not miss out on when reading Joyce et al. I somehow doubt that it will matter that you take the course formally... but you know, there's always that 'intellectual curiosity' within the likes of you and me... poor, foolish souls.

mmk so if im going the life science route it says i need 4 GE classes from scientific inquiry. but LS 1, LS2, and physics 6A-6C are all considered GEs and necessary for my major.

so does that mean im done for science GEs?

SaltyBruin12

Mme-lin, I definitely share that 'intellectual curiosity,' but I also want to minimize certain work so I can focus on pursuing other things, like a minor, credential, and honors. So many opportunities, so little time (and $$$).

And I own Hamilton's wonderful little anthology. I read it thoroughly in 9th grade English. That was an awesome year!

Yes, it means you're done for your GEs. One of the life science courses requires a 'lab' or 'demo' - that's the LS series. The other LS courses does not need to require it. You can use LS 1 and 2 to satisfy both of the courses. Physics 6A will cover one of the non-lab physical science GEs while Physics 4AL/BL or Chemistry20A/BL or 14AL/BL/etc. will cover your physical science with lab GE requirement. Bottom line: don't worry about it (DWAI).

SaltyBruin12, I think you are worrying excessively at this point. For now, take your English 4HW (if possible), a GE, another GE, or a foreign language course... since you're under a limited trajectory of time and flexibility for completing your lower-division English major requirements.

how close are wg young hall and SMB? i was thinking about taking chem 20AH and AA 10 but theres only ten minutes between the classes. i would prefer not to sprint...

if they are reasonably far away, can anyone suggest a GE class from anything other than visual/perf arts or science? something easy with not much writing is what im looking for.

Shoenberg to CS 50 is easily doable in ten minutes, I can make it from Bunche to CS 50 in 10 so you definitely can.

Anybody know Astro 3 with Turner?
