Day 116 - Magic class schedule

I can be in two places at the same time, at least from the Reading Meteorology Department's point of view. I'll explain why in a minute.

This sure is a funny school. I have classes every day. All are on multiple days. And almost every day I have a particular class, it's at a different time and in a different room. A couple of them already have been moved to new rooms in different buildings. It seems that the class rooms and daily schedules are picked almost at random. But that leads to some amusing consequences.

On Thursdays, two of my classes are at the exact same time!!

Today I went to half of one and half of the other, which is probably what I'll keep doing except when I have a test in one of them. It actually turned out very well! In fact, I think they should schedule more classes at the same time. It's much more efficient that way. You learn the content of two classes while only using up the time of one.

I tried to do this back at San Jose State. I got as far as enrolling in two classes that were at the same time. But they soon got wise to it and forced me to choose one or the other if I wanted credit for either. Unfortunately, at the Univ. of Oklahoma, the enrollment system won't even let you sign up for two classes at the same time.

Neither of the two teachers seem to have much of a problem with it. They both thought it was funny and gave me the lecture notes for the parts I missed. One even helped me decide which part to miss and which part to attend.

I love this school!
