My Econ class is pretty cool

As in, much, much better than the last two quarters of Econ. The professor is a good teacher (although he goes a little slowly), but most importantly, when he’s done introducing the concepts, he introduces really interesting discussion questions, which my previous professor never did. This is awesome because I can learn the regular concepts on my own, but discussing them in class is truly fascinating. Then again, maybe I’m just happy to have a better teacher. An added bonus is that he’s also a Nobel Laureate. That’s just cool.

As it stands right now, I’ll be going to around eight company presentations next week (if I go to all of them). That is a ridiculous amount of presentations to go to. Networking is such a bullshit thing to do. You’re creating a forced relationship with someone just to get a job. Then again, I’m probably not the most qualified of students at the University of Chicago, so maybe it’s good that I can rely on the little interpersonal skills I have.
