As the title implies, it’s week 3 here at RIT. It’s chaotic as ever, but ultimately, it’s turning into a lot of fun. A quick breakdown of classes:
HCI1: Human Factors - A class about the psychology of human-computer interaction. Oddly enough, the professor is probably the least sane one I’ve had so far in my educational career. (Wait, let me think…yup.) As an example,
he’s a musician.
Intro to Database - An intro to databases and SQL. I love this class. It makes sense to me, and I’m good at it. I’m thinking of switching my concentrations from Web Design/Interactive Media to Web Design/Database, but I’m not sure yet. We’ll see at the end of the course.
Interactive Digital Media - A course about Flash, animation, and game programming. This is probably the single most work-intensive course I’ve taken so far (except maybe Java III), but it’s fun.
Networking Fundamentals - Don’t get me started on this one. I have an Associate’s degree in Computer Networking. Why do I have to take this class?
Advanced Sabre Fencing - A reprieve from the rigors of academia into the rigors of precise, controlled physical activity. Hard as hell, but it’s a lot of fun playing with sharp, pointy sticks.
So far, this quarter is going great. My classes are cool, I have free time (sometimes, hehe), and the weather is finally starting to get warmer.
More updates to follow.
