Barth's Perseus is twenty years past the glorious days of the slaying of Medusa--he is impotent, his wife sleeps around. Pegasus can no longer fly and Bellerophon has become a professor of literature. Barth's heroes have unheroic self-doubts, think dirty thoughts, study poli sci and get high on hippomenes. Zeus, in the form of a high school drop-out, rapes unsuspecting women and Bellerophon is dismissed by all as another quack would-be hero. Heroic love is forever lost in the sexual profusion and confusion of these post-Freudian ancient Greeks...
...Hampshire-Dartmouth: After just wasting all that space on such a dud of a game. I'd better start being more concise. Pick one Godzilla or Little Bo-Peep, Beaujolais or Mogan David Mad Dog. WBCN or WHRB. Biochem 110 or Soc Sci 152, Dartmouth or UNH. Look at it this way, one's big and beastly and one isn't. One's got class and one doesn't. One's entertaining and popular and one isn't. One is rough and grunty and one isn't. And finally, one team will be alive after this afternoon...
...medical school work. Thus, Bio 15a. Bio 10b, or Bio 21 are reasonable adjuncts to Bio 2. Biology should be deferred until sophomore year for two reasons: performance as a freshman in chem and math can give you a clue about which biology to enroll in (between Net Sci 5 and Bio 2): and, unless you are interesting to major in Biology, there is no rush to have a large number of biology courses. Most of the advanced bio courses require Chem 20, and so it behooves you to take the chemistry courses first, saving biology for sophomore year...
...reasonable way to take biology as a freshman, especially if you have a burning desire to do biology then, is to take chemistry (either Nat Sci 3 or Chem 6) in the first semester and, if you manage to do honors work in both the chemistry and math courses first semester, enroll in Bio 2 during the spring. In general, however, it is wise to defer your initial bio course until sophomore year. After having taken the one-year of required biology, it is wise to take at least an additional semester of bio, which might include...
...Sci 2 or Net Sci 7 may be taken to fulfill the premed requirement in physics only if they are taken concurrently with Physics 1 lab. Other possibilities which are most intriguing include Applied Physics 14, which focuses on projects in a laboratory-oriented approach: and Physics 12, which is heavy in its mathematical and theoretical orientation and is recommended only for the strong-of-heart. While the Biology Department still requires Physics 112 in addition to Physics 12 to complete its own physics requirement, medical schools are perfectly happy with Physics 12 alone...
