las courses

In the fall I need to take 3 biology courses and 1 elective. I think my elective is going to be ENGB70 - introduction to cinema. I've never taken an english course in university, I like film, and I really do like writing

C12, C59 and C19 all sound neat, but I'm not a science person. I think C19 sounds the best because of the no lab, only 2 hours of lecture a week thing.

Good point - I should have mentioned how much inclass time and tutorial and lab etc time there is in each... C19 look fabulous because there is no lab, no tutorial, just a straightforward 2 hours of lecture a week which is good for an easy credit...

In theory I could take both C12 and C59 even though they overlap because C12 lecture casts. However, the prof for C12 doesn't treat the lecture cast students as well as she treats the in class students, so it may not be in my best interest to do both... bah!

Intro to Cinema is taught by Maurice, who is light years better of a film prof than Garry Leonard is.

Good to know. =] Leonard gets really great reviews, so hopefully that means Maurice is extra awesome.

Personally, I am not a fan of Leonard at all. He gets WAY too into things and overanalyzes films to the point of sheer annoyance. People only like him because he grades easy and you can get away with a lot of BS.

Maurice grades easy, but she is a lot easier to stomach and doesn't overanalyze movies. She is also really flexible and approachable. With Leonard, you are lucky if you can get five seconds of his time.
