Geog 1hb3
Hi,

I missed the introduction lecture this morning at 9:30, can anyone post outline?

Also will this course be appearing on avenue, or is there a website for it?

Any regrets about the course (ie better to jump off a cliff?)

What were the assignments like?

Eh. Only regret I had was that I never took away too much from the course. I took it as an elective..but I had no interest going in..nor coming out of it. The labs were a heavy component of your final grade (at least last year with Mercier) and they were all more than doable. The TA was always willing to help..and in general the labs/assignments were okay. Some of them including writing a precis, or a critical review..which I wasn't fond of but it was alright. I believe there was a 3% bonus for us for attending all labs which I liked. Make sure for the final assignment you pick the right group members from your lab section. It is worth a lot, and it is only a group mark from what I remember. Good luck!

The course is right up there with microecon has one of the easiest courses I have taken at Mac. As long as you do the assignments, which take a while but are super easy, then the rest of the material is straightforward

Yes there is..and no the TA for me was also the IA for the course, Julia..she wasn't a 'Grammar Nazi' on us. I just had no interest in doing the writing assignments, so I received low marks on them.
