Ahh, Tuesday...

[mothwing]

Tell me, are you attracted to Tuesdays?

How do you feel about the period between 2-4pm?

Is that a particularly... desirable part of the week?

Tue
2 - 4pm Medieval Lyrics
2 - 4pm  The Notion of Taboo in German Literature
2 - 4pm Advanced Language Teaching: Subject Matter Teaching in a Foreign Language.

Well, it certainly is really the official proof that German students AND German uni staff is too lazy. Tuesdays are the first day of the week for the uni, for some reason, and especially in the depths of the Humanities there are few Professors who offer courses earlier than 2pm on Tuesdays, and since everybody only offers courses during the inofficial academic week (aka Tue, 2pm - Thu, 18 pm), most seminars are at the same time.

I need a time turner. 

Or someone else to do a seminar that focuses on international literature and has a less boring topic. I mean - the notion of taboo - yes, very interesting, only not if your background reading for the course focuses on Fraser, Freud, Wundt and their cronies. Shudder. Not AGAIN. I mean, I always wanted to read "The Golden Bough", but I also always wanted to do a course on Minne. 

What's a girl to do...

Tell me about it!

Thursdays, 14-16!!! I wanted to take a facultative 1b then, "Jane Austen" with Dose, which I would have LOVED to do, exactly when there's my 1bÄDL class. And I can't take the other ÄDL, because there's Greiner then.

Plus, all, ALL lectures are between 16:00 and 20:00. And the coolest Psychology class "Angst und Stress" too. 16-18. I want to murder someone.

BTW, I'll also try to do Freytag's ÄDL2 Seminar. I love religious stuff ^^

I would have loved to do Greiner as a facultative seminar, I can tell you. I've loved Marlowe ever since I read Dr Faustus. Sigh.

It's really unfair that you're let loose on those courses, we were only allowed to do the ones from the Grundstudium, the basic introductory ones, like "Allgemeine Psychologie I" or "Allgemeine II". *pouts*

UnFAIR!!!!!!!!

Ah, good. I'd love to, as well, but I'm an idiot and haven't called him about it so far. :( Will do tomorrow. But I think I'm forced to do the Minne one, as I've already got a topic and everything, and I'd hate to disappoint the nice, wonderful Professor Henkel.

Well couldn't you do both? I will do the Annolied as 1b, and the Freytag one either as 2 (if I have time for the paper), or factltative. That is posisble, no?

Nah, this really depends on the subject. It seems to me that almost all faculties start their first week on term around Tue - Thu but not us.
For maths students everything starts on Monday around 8-10 am, for me and some others it already started one week earlier because of several pre-courses teaching things that are required for the main courses, e.g. my C++ course.
