Registration course schedules are lovely–except for classes that have vague titles such as, “The Uncanny,” or history courses that cause unprecedented cringing when the workload is unknown. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was some reference as to what the classes were about, and if they had finals, and papers…

Yep, it exists in the midst of the Liberal Arts college Web site like shiny buried treasure. All classes listed with full descriptions of exactly what you’ll learn, how many tests you will take, and how many papers you will write.

Fall ‘08 doesn’t stand a chance against these mad skills.

    I’m pretty sure Sandy Stone is deliberately obtuse in her course titles, although her classes are all pretty much the same. The RTF department puts pretty detailed course descriptions on its website, which I guess undergrads don’t look at, given the amount of confusion about a course topic in classes I’ve taught over the years.
