I don't think you lose honors status by not taking an honors course, do you? And I think you'll really like Dr. Rouhier. She tells fun stories about russian corpses.
you would think not, and i don't think they ever actually check and take it away from people, but that's the policy, which is dumb. so i asked her if, since i'm an ra, i could take the class in spring 2007 and get my status reinstated? she had no straight answer. just said that, maybe if i had a reason other than not wanting to take a 9 o'clock or not wanting to take wilke. i asked if taking 12 hours of major couses and 4 of a foreign language, that's 16 total, was reason enough. she said, maybe if i had a more rigorous major like architecture and not french, they could see that, but that since my major had flexability that wasn't reason enough. i was very upset and signed up for an honors class anyway. i'll probably end up dropping it though... :(
that sucks... at least you got into the "wild card" section of honors... i mean i haven't heard of anyone worse than wilke (sp?). Regarding your major stuff that sucks to, though I can see there point... some majors off NO flexibility on class schedule... plus a language major is easier if no other reason than the fact that if you're majoring in it, then you've got to be good at it... it takes a lot of natural talent and an affinity for languages to be a language major... thus if you're majoring in it, you're good at it, and if you're good at it, it comes easier to you than say me who is struggling with the concept of reflexive verbs in ita 201... it's still a shitty reason though...
At least Linguistics 211 is like the easiest class ever, you won't do everything she even puts on the syllabus. You'll probably like Guindon; despite the fact she's gotten crazier each semester (I've had her three times). In addition, you only have to show up on test days.
