Well first of all this course mode is not typical for our Unis. Everything, from grading to saying hello and asking how are you is American.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

The Uni? It's grad-level. The course is also grad-level.
What are the differencies, everything is a bit different. I'd say all the differencies are cultural. Nothing truly shocking or something that would make a huge difference, just mostly cultural things.In da butt.

For some reason, I thought you were undergrad. My bad.
Also, how many people attend the class?I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

Well, what was supposed to be a quick meet, like 15 minutes, ended up being an hour and 15 minutes and it was me who had to cut it short and go for other things, I guess it woudl have gone forever. We talked about the subject in general, and we never even really got to the .. thing itself. It was quite fun actually, and he is urging me to pursue this thing. I guess I'll give my shot, if the research suggestions turns out to be golden, I will have to change my major in order to really pursue this (but stay in comp sci still).
Now I have huge pressure beucase I have to come up with an excellent paper and it has to be perfect. I can't come up with half assed work now, not anymore. Oh boy..In da butt.
