Schiller or Sedaris?
I knew I understood what was going on, I just didn’t understand why. This goes for the election and the new president the US has as well as class/lecture yesterday morning. I think not understanding the election-new president topic is pretty self-explanatory. So, I’ll just drop that one. But, my lecture…it is a politics class and the topic of yesterday’s lecture was ‘systems.’ Somehow, the professor was able to read some Schiller for about 20 minutes, right out of the book and then give a not so brief overview of his resume, and that counted as a lecture. I knew I understood the majority of the lecture because he used so many English words. Things like, 'Ich habe Politik studiert bei Georgetown University in Washington, DC.' are pretty simple to understand. I’m still just not quite sure what we were suppose to learn…or why. The prof. even took questions at the end. About what? I have no idea. I left 15 minutes early. I spent 75 minutes in the lecture hall reading articles in Der Spiegel and watching what amounted to about 60 students leave at different times during the lecture; and they didn’t come back.
How is the US feel about the re-election of Bush? Someone let me know how it’s all going down. Send me an email or post it on here.
