First Day of Classes - Fall 2007

So far:

Calculus I and lab; I'm excited about this course. My instructor introduced the class by saying, "This semester we are going to be contemplating the concept of infinity." We represent it with this:





My Intermediate Microeconomics professor reminds me of that old joke about how you can tell if an economist, or representative from another nerdy profession, is an extrovert. This prof was definitely looking at some of the shoes on the people on the front row, so she was. During her description of the syllabus and course policies, the thought crept in, "Can she handle this? Should I find another IM class?" But, after she started into the economic portions of the intro lecture, I realized that she is brilliant. Her credintials are impeccable, after all, so she is actually the best prof for the class from an academic standpoint. The class itself, looks to be very helpful in tying together a lot of remaining questons in my mind about the connection between math and econ.
