rushthatspeaksBoth 300-level Cities courses fell through. Bless my major advisor anyway. He looked over my schedule and said, 'Do you have any non-major requirements you need to fill?' Which had occurred to me, but I wasn't sure what 300-levels they were offering next semester, so I was reluctant to take something that couldn't be counted for my major at all in any way.
So, as of this morning, I am enrolled in Economics 105, which will fill my Quantitative requirement, which I had been going to fill by taking calculus in one of my five course slots next semester. My major advisor has promised up, down, and sideways that either I WILL be gotten into a Cities 300-level next semester, or he will make Econ count for my major. He's the department head. He can do it. I'm still going to try my damnedest to get that Cities 300-level, to the point where I will go to U. Penn if I must, because I do need that upper-level for the major requirements, but this also means that if every available 300 conflicts with something else I'd been planning to take, I can ditch one of the lower-level Cities courses because of having taken Econ. I still think I'll wind up taking five classes next semester, because as a double-major I want to stick very close to the requirements so that neither department starts to dislike me, but I may not absolutely HAVE to. The flexibility is a very good thing.
And I don't have to take calculus.
And the Econ class I went to this afternoon was, astoundingly enough, actually really, really interesting.
And I am completely and absolutely and irrevocably registered for four classes.
I can just feel the stress lift...
Angst-O-Meter: Now I'm just tired.
