Pick Ben Kenobi's courses!

[Ben Kenobi]

Here are your options. With permission of the department, I will be selecting five from the list. But I thought I should see which courses Apolyton would prefer to have me take. So vote for your five favourites from the following course topics:

1. Prairie West
2. BC History
3. History of feminism
4. Soviet History
5. Nordic History
6.Comparative women's history
7.Topics in cultural encounters
8.History of science
9.Topics in Cultural history
10.Topics in International history

can you take one 5 times?

[Kassiopeia]

"History of Feminism"? Sheesh. We have a whole unit* here for something called Women Studies.

* not a study unit, an actual brick and mortar unit, smaller than a department.

[Arrian]

Definitely History of Science for you, Ben! Maybe the women's studies courses, too...

What's with the "Topics of ____ History?" course titles? What topics? Huh?

No, sadly I have to actually pick 5 from that list. I have to laugh that my first choice still has 28 seats open, the History of Science.

[Arrian]

I imagine a lot of people thought "History? Boring. Science? Boring. Useful, but boring! Both together! DEAR GOD MAN!" Hence 28 openings left...

[Japher]

Can you sit in on all of them and find out which one has the hottest chicks?

[Hot Mustard]

2 and 7 through 10 are the most interesting, IMHO.

[Donegeal]

BC
Soviet
Nordic
Science
International

[Arrian]

I'd go with History of Science, Nordic History, Topics in International History (maybe... I wish I had a better idea of what that means), and... prolly Soviet History.

edit: point of clarification - does "BC History" mean British Columbia History or B.C. History?

Yeah, but oddly enough it's been my concentration. I have 12 credits from just history of science courses, so this will make another 3 for 15.

That, and my 12 credits of British history (Empire, and political British history) sum my degree up well.

[Donegeal]

Thats only 4 Arrian...

[Arrian]

Oh, and you left out a CRUCIAL piece of information: class TIME! Any of those at or before 9am? I don't know about you, but no matter how interesting the subject matter or how good the professor, 9am is just too goddamned early for my brain to be on.

In that case anything with "Women" and "Feminism" are keepers.

British Columbia history. I am leaning more towards Nordic and Soviet history, since I like european history in general, but I would really prefer one in medieval history
