chrryblssmninjaso the Principles of Business class only had sections available from 8-9 AM
that is just not reasonable for a commuter like me
so, my classes:
Archaeology and the Media (4 units)
Focus on the use of digital media to create narrative about the practice and products of archaeology. Students build a critical awareness of the way digital media are used by archaeologists, journalists, film and TV producers, and others. Students will experience the introductory stage of the digital media authoring process.
My advisor said this wouldn't be redundant for someone with my experience, and that it has helped people find jobs before
Research Theory and Methods in Cultural and Social Anthropology (5 units)
Introduction to research problems and research design techniques. Will involve local field research on the collection, analysis, and presentation of data.
Introduction to Pre-modern Japanese literature (4 units)
waitlist position: 1
This course provides an overview of Japanese literature and cultural history, from the seventh to the 18th century. 7A will begin with Japan's early myth-history, Kojiki, and its first extant poetry anthology, Man'yoshu, which show the first stages of transition from a preliterate, communal society to a highly developed courtly culture. Readings from noblewomen's diaries, poetry anthologies, and a selection of chapters from the classical Japanese literary masterpiece The Tale of Genji, offer a window into that courtly culture as its height of refinement. We will examine the intermingling traces of oral culture and high literary art in popular tales from the Kamakura period and explore the early representations of samurai heroism in military chronicles and medieval noh drama. After considering the development of linked verse in late medieval times, we will read several types of vernacular literature that emerged in the urban culture of the early modern Edo period, including the poetic diaries of the haiku poet Basho. This course does not assume or require any previous exposure to or course work in Japanese literature, history, or language.
My Japanese is limited, so this is good to know
besides, I've read The Tale of Genji and other things already, plus some of the Chinese works (in translation) they often quoted; I have a good basis
Beginning Modern Dance Technique - 2 units
number 14 on waitlist
why just do ballet for 0.5 units when I can still dance for 2 units!
I just want to dance. also, I couldn't find any other 2 or 3 credit classes that could fit my schedule. I needed a lighter load with those two big Anthro classes above. There's an audition the first day of class, but that's more of an assessment.
