Summer of Science Fiction


Absolute dumbest thing I have been told at university: music courses are not art couses.  In order to get my second degree in math, I have to complete the “breadth requirements” which include a full credit in art.  With all of my instrument classes, music history classes, conducting, ensumbles, blah blah blah, aparently none of them apply.  But this finally gives me an excuse to take an English literature course!!!  I don’t get the offical syllabus until Monday, but some of the texts I’ll be reading are H.G. Wells’ The Time Machine and War of the Worlds, Walter Miller’s A Canticle for Lebowitz and Piercy Marge’s He, She and It.  This twelve week summer course will help me get into more substance type books as well as speed up my reading process.  I’m really excited and have already finished my first book on the hopefully correct list.
