Going back to school

[bean]

I'm enrolling at our local community college for the Spring semester just for continuing education. Not sure what class I'm going to take yet so suggestions are welcome. I was reviewing my old college transcripts today and apparently I got a "B-" in the History of Rock My wife is taunting me over it but I reminded her that grunge wasn't even a thing then.

If NSCC, the electronics courses were rather fly over and probably a waste of time unless they came out with a 3 or 4.. Wish I'd gotten in when they still had the electronics degree. I rather enjoyed Physics.
Stay away from the nighttime calculus courses. Retired Navy mathematician.

Well I've already taken about all the Calculus classes that there are except Tensor Analysis, haha. My brain is too plastic for that at this point.

When you say you got a B- in the History of Rock are you talking about music or geology?

That's a quality joke

Geology. It was so long ago we just wrote down what was happening that day.

Any music classes available? I have been working on an online certificate on film scoring for the last couple years. It’s been really fun.

I got an A in my "Music of the Beatles" class. Barely past "Dance Appreciation"—had to memorize the names of too many dead French men for their contributions to ballet. Jon Luc, Jon Paul, Jon Claude... couldn't keep them all straight.

I'd say take an improv class, or see if the school has a Middle Eastern ensemble and take some Oud lessons!

I can confirm that Real Analysis is a load of fun and completely useful in pedal design.

I switched from a BS to BA so I didn't have to take Real Analysis. However, I had to do Algebraic Structures instead. Let's just say I didn't pass the first time.

The Nashville location has a lot of music classes. Film scoring is a frigging great suggestion, thanks!

The best thing I did in college was golf class.

Philosophy, creative writing, cultural studies type courses. That's what I'd do, at least!

Creative writing is another great idea. Way out of my wheelhouse.

Don’t know if it’s a real thing or not but the psychology of music would be a great course.

Woodworking is where it’s at

And that is an even better joke! By far! Well done.

Ive been wanting to get my HVAC cert. Not because I want to work on them. Just so I don't have to pay someone else to
