Academic update: Spring 2010, part 2.

The final grade is in for my “Implementing Information Systems in Organizations” (aka implementing and managing SQL Server 2005 databases).

I’m sorry, did you say something?

What was that?

You’re going to have to speak up.

Yes, that was an “A”. Yes, the streak is alive.

What’s next? Something called “Systems Analysis”, and a course called (no kidding), “Modern Revolutions” (which fills three out of the six hours of “Global Perspectives” I need to take before graduation).

This course is a comparative analysis of the problem causes, stages, and accomplishments of some of the most significant revolutions in modern times– such as the French Revolution of 1789, the Russian revolutions of 1917 and 1991, the Chinese Revolution, the Cuban Revolution, the Eastern European and the South African revolutions of the later half of the 20th century.

Oddly enough, both of these are online courses, so I don’t have to go to either campus this semester. So much for that parking permit.

How far out am I? I sat down with my academic advisor earlier in the semester to figure that out. It looks like I need six hours of “Global Perspectives”, three hours of a literature or humanities course, three hours of an elective (I’m thinking about something related to law or the forensic sciences; if St. Ed’s offered a computer forensics course for credit, I’d be on that like Lindsay Lohan on a bottle of vodak), plus I believe one more in-major computer class after this one, and then the final Capstone course. At this point, I’m thinking four more semesters: Fall 2010, Spring and Fall of 2011, and then Spring 2012 for Capstone and graduation.

  1. I thought you hated Star Trek

    I do hate Star Trek, as you know well.

    But for some reason, that demotivator amuses me.
