What classes are you enrolling for and what is your major? Hope that everyone is going to have fun this year. Are your classes semesters or quarters long? :yes: Yay, College!!

When you folks are ready to apply to law school, let me know. That's what I do for a living - teach law: www.nesl.edu. And Sports Law is one of the classes that I teach every year.

Best of luck to you all as school begins.

Just curious, opalkak. Did you co-op? How did that work with training if you did so? I know there are some other vaulters on here that are engineers. Do any of you have any experience with this?

I have been working for my head coach in the Track & Field office doing an internship good for 6 hours...
We are on semesters here and i am taking a whopping 18 credit hours EACH semester so that i can graduate in may. I am a Conflict Management major and this is what my schedule looks like this fall:

MWF- 9:55-10:45 Linguistics
11:00-11:50 Minorities in America
W 6:15-8:45 MEDIATION: THEORY/TRAINING

Tu&Th 9:15-10:30 GENDER, POWER AND CONFLICT

... I'm also going to try to hold a job from 5:30-9:30pm on M, Tu, & Th nights as well as saturdays and sundays :dazed:


-wish me luck, please :yes:

no co-op required here at U of A. I had a couple of offers for summer internships, but decided to turn them down. I figured why start working when I could be vaulting.
