This year

When registering for classes last semester, I wanted to put variety into my schedule, since I had taken relatively normal classes the first time. When selecting my FYS, I wanted to take something out of the box. I spotted harnessing life’s molecular machines on the page and it caught my interest. Later I would find out it would be one of my better class decisions, because I really enjoy attending class and participating in the discussions. The class structure is very relaxed and I feel comfortable expressing my opinions. Not only that, opinions are encouraged to be expressed, even when it comes to such topics as evolution and religion. These topics would have never been touched in high school, and I really liked talking about them and hearing other people talk about what they believed. Other than class discussions, I also liked the presentations given by students. It made the class much more interesting and gave it variety. In normal classes, I sit through listening to often boring and repetitive lectures. This class was definitely a good choice to take and I enjoyed it a lot.
