So, I'm back at Olin for my fourth semester. This semester, as during my second semester, I am taking more courses than a "normal workload" of four courses. Oops! :) This time should be a lot easier than my second semester, however, when I basically never slept.
This semester I'm taking Intro Biology, a Foundations of Business Class, and Intensive French 203, (the second year of french compressed into one semester). All of these courses are easy enough, and won't actually account for 12 credits of work, as they should. For French I spent hours over semester break watching videos for the course, since the class if video based. Now I won't have to do that much work during the semester! I'm also taking a Linear Algebra and Probabilities and Statistics course which I sort of took last semester but didn't get credit for.
I'm also taking UOCD which stands for User Oriented Collaborative Design. The class is great :) I'll write more about it later, but in short its a design class where project groups take on a user group, like bartenders, bike messengers, tattoo artists, and try to design for this user group by immersing themselves in the lives of the users.
I'm also taking a 1 credit student led course, a 1 credit of engineering pedagogy research, and I'm involved in three businesses this semester: Olin Services, Olin Tutoring Squad, and IdeaTree Design.
