My schedule works out pretty well for someone who is commuting from the Hill. Half of my courses are at Simmons and the other half are at Emmanuel. God bless Colleges of the Fenway. Without their partnership I would never be able to get into a general biology course. I will graduate in four years, damnit!
What I'm really excited for is IDS 228. It's a service learning class as the title implies, which entails me learning about the socio-economic situation in Nicaragua for eight weeks. After I become well-aquianted with the burgeoning culture and economy of the nation, we go as a class to homestay in Nicaragua for twenty days in January. After playing e-mail tag with Prof. Gullette I was unsure of whether there was room in the class for me. However we met face-to-face today and discussed the situation, and he seems pretty enthusiastic about sneaking me in. My ESL skill is apparently an asset (What skill?!), as the program involves promoting literacy in both English and Spanish for adults and children.
I'll know for sure soon. Simmons study abroad office is going to contact me as soon as they finalize a schedule of fees. I'm fairly sure I can afford it. Wish me luck?
I obviously can sense a unifying theme in all the classes I take (Latin American History, Spanish, Service Learning in Nicaragua), but what the FUCK am I going to do with a Latin American studies major? Prof. Gullette had some great ideas. Perhaps I should look to him for counsel?
