Looking back on multiple semesters

Well, I am in the middle of winter session, (also: I'm on break) . I will be back at Olin sometime around the 20th of January, but for now I am home. Next semester I will be once again taking more courses than I should. My second semester at Olin I took 5 courses instead of 4, mostly on accident. That semester one of my courses was double the workload of a normal course, and I didn't want to drop the independent study I took called MetaOlin, which I have written about before.

This past semester I wound up not adding a course I intended to, which left me with 12 credits instead of the normal 16. Last semester I took a French course, a course called Principles of Engineering, (which I will describe later), and an upper level material science course called Thin Films and the Design of Experiments.

Next semester I will be taking the foundations of business course at Olin which everyone must take to graduate, the second year of French condensed down into "Intensive French 203", Linear Algebra, Probabilities and Statistics, a design course that teaches user-oriented design (User Oriented Collaborative Design), and Biology, which everyone must also take to graduate.

In any case, I could talk more about the courses I'm taking/took last semester, since I haven't addressed them at all yet, but I'll wait for another time.
