<p>Hi nspeds,</p>
<p>As the resident philosophy guru, I’m hoping that you can help me with a question I have.</p>
<p>For next semester, I’m registered for two upper-level (300-level) philosophy courses:
- Negotiating Contemporary “Asia”
- Faith and Reason (a Jewish studies class)</p>
<p>I’m also taking a 400-level comparative literature course called Sartre and De Beauvoir.</p>
<p>Aside from these courses, I’m taking an economics class (since I’ll be double-majoring (if I stay here) in business management), and a gym class.</p>
<p>Here’s my question: This is going to be a tough semester already with all of these upper-level courses, but do you think it might be worth it to take an intro-French class (that meets every day!)? I have no knowledge of French, and I feel that this might hurt me since I’ll be applying as a philosophy major. And of course this would hurt me even if I stay, since much of the philosophy texts are translated from French or German…</p>
