New Semester

Part of our new blog commitment was to post at least weekly. We gave ourselves a little lattitude because we wanted the annual newsletter to be near the top, but it's been long enough that I hear duty calling.

This new semester has started off well. After last term's focus on my thesis, I'm back in classes. I have three really interesting ones, or rather two really interesting ones and one that is excruciatingly brain numbing. That latter one is requiring me to memorize all the parts of the brain. It's more nuerological than when I memorized them for Anatomy and that was so long ago that it's not much help to me. However, because I participated in one of my buddy's research projects a little while ago, I'll get to use pictures of my own brain to study from!!! (I'll post them when I get them).

The other two classes are Qualitative Research where I'm doing a project on what helps people make moral decisions and Moral Psychology where we basically read and discuss what everyone else has said about morality.

I'm also teaching a section of personality which is fun, even though I regularly don't feel prepared enough to teach. Still, it's been going well.
