This course... I mean, wow.  Tiny class (maybe 11 people), really knowledgeable professor, and not taught anymore.  I learned some very interesting things in this class that only a small percentage of this world's population knows.  So, valuable course.  When I went to study in Sweden in 2009, I tested one of my professor's knowledge about a certain turning-point event I learned about in SCAND460 at UW (namely, the Stockholm Bloodbath, as it's called), and he didn't have much to say about it.  I was shocked that he didn't mention it, but it just gave me faith that my education at UW wasn't a waste.  I don't think my professor liked my final paper though, since my final point was that Swedish is the best Scandinavian language.. and she i

Intro to Morphology, yep.. it's exactly what you think it is.  We learn how to morph into different animals.  :P  No, this is actually a linguistics course that covers the structure of words.  It was pretty interesting for me since I was learning Swedish at the time and Swedish words can get really really long, so learning to break it down and why this is this and that is that was pretty fun for me.  I like languages though.

Yep, so I thought this might be a slightly less intimidating class than CSE142 and a bit more applicable for life and it was, but it was still really difficult for me because I'm not great with computer languages.  The UW's Computer Science department is no joke, and when it comes to lower level classes, there really is no mercy.  We learned lots of languages like XHTML, CSS, PHP, Javascript, and more that I'm obviously forgetting.  Marty Stepp is a really great teacher though and the class is worth taking if you're not worried about taking a hit GPA-wise if you're not good at computers already.
