My Classes/O-Week!!

I am taking 4 classes and they are:

Blockbusters and Biopics: A history at the movies, basically a movie class, where we watch and write about historical movies. We just watched Mississippi Burning about the 1964 freedom summer. Next up is the Cold war and Mcarthyism where we will watch the oscar nominee Good Night and Good Luck. Later we will doing the victorian era and finish with Saving Private Ryan.

Earth Science: I learn about rocks and minerals and mostly about the Grand Canyon.

Society, Environment and Place: a course about human geographies its for my International Studies/Human rights major.

Making New Zealand: A Survey to 1914 is a new zealand course, we mainly study the maori who landed here in 1350 and then european colonization.

BUT, there is also O-WEEK!!!
Its a crazy week at the beginning of the school year, there is a FOGA party, Comedians, Concerts, traditional Hangi maori meal, Bizarre Ball and lots of drinking which the university sponsers.

It was so much fun, but nothing like down in the south island, in the college town of dunedin, during the FOGA party there was riots, flipped cars, drugs and lots of drinking. This was probably the equivalent to Madison Halloween State Street 2002.
