The travels of Justin

First class survived - barely. Our teacher has a PHD - presumably in economics - and has been teaching this course for 9 years. He seems like he genuinely likes the subject material, and knows it well, but what a boring class. I think he may have been a bit nervous for the first day of school. A classmate asked whether students would lose marks for missing a class or assignment (only tests were labeled for marks in the outline). The instructor launched into a 10 minute ramble about the economic relationship between attendance, assignment participation, and the final mark you might expect to achieve - very shocking news! Finally “the short answer: no.” I suspect I’m going to enjoy this class, or at least I think I’ll enjoy the material - one can only hope - but I’m glad I drank a large Tim Horton’s coffee to keep awake.

Tomorrow is Pre-Calculus and English Composition. We’ll see how things progress…
