Music 101 - 12pm Thursday

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

"Afternoon dudes!

Here are the grades for your Movie assignments. Some of you didn't hand them in. You can do that this week, but I'm totally gonna have to penalize you. I'll give you your grades next week. For everyone who DID hand them in, here's the grades."

( Your Life As A Movie grades )

"Your exam is next week, dudes. December 15. Write that down and come to class! The exam is a big part of your grade. You dudes have done most excellently this semester, so I don't wanna have to grade you down for not showing up for the exam. Bring a pen!

This week, I want you to turn to the person next to you and have a deep and meaningful discussion about music. It can be on any musical topic! You might even want to talk about the Christmas pageant that's happening today. Bonus points if you can do it only in song lyrics, but that's totally not required. Party on dudes!"

Band Practice - Thursday afternoon

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

Welcome to class, dudes! This is it. This is your last week to practice. You've all been practicing hard this past semester, so I know you're gonna do just fine. Next week is the big gig. It'll be here, in this room, at 6pm next Thursday. Invite all your friends! There will be punch and pie.

I need a volunteer to put up flyers for it in the dorms. Any takers?

Finalize details, dudes. Work out the kinks in your performance. Get it as good as you can get it. And remember - you HAVE to perform to pass this class. The final performance makes up 50% of your grade. It's your final. We've been working towards it all semester, so if you've done your work, you can do the performance. No forgetting to show up next week. If you forget, you're not just letting me down, you're letting your band mates down too, and that's totally bogus.

I'll mostly be practicing with Pool of Leaves today in Practice Room 1, so if you're in Burning Record or Blissfully Ignorant and you need me, come knock on the door.

History Class (12-09-05)

[fandom-sub.livejournal.com]

"So I hear you guys had some sorta show last night," Dewey says, disappointed. "I could've totally kicked it up with some wicked chords or something, but, y'know, whatever."

Introduction to World History to 1600 (Terran)

"Today we will have a guest to tell us all about France in the early 15th Century. You've probably seen the movies, so you know she's completely hot. I'll let her introduce herself when she gets here, but dude. This is gonna rock!"

The Library (12/09/05)

[janet_fraiser]

Having no classes on Fridays, Janet got to the library early, and started working on her independent study for math.

She also posted a sign on the door. "Library Closing At 1:00 PM Today"

Physics

[equalsmcsquared.livejournal.com]

I'm passing around a study guide for the final exam. That will take place next Friday here.

Today, we will be briefly discussing and performing an experiment on refraction.

Refraction produces optical illusions.

Ever reached down into the bath tub water to grab a toy and found that it was not in the position it appeared to be? What you are experiencing is the effect called refraction (the bending of a wave path, as of light or sound, at the boundary between two different mediums) . When light enters the water (or any transparent material) it slows down slightly. If the light enters the water at an angle then this change in speed causes the light beam to bend away from its original path. This is called refraction.

Refraction experiments are based on the times of arrival of the initial ground movement generated by a source recorded at a variety of distances. Later-arriving complications in the recorded ground motion are discarded. Thus, the data set derived from refraction experiments consists of a series of times versus distances. These are then interpreted in terms of the depths to subsurface interfaces and the speeds at which motion travels through the subsurface within each layer. These speeds are controlled by a set of physical constants, called elastic parameters that describe the material.

Now, please complete the experiment listed. You may leave when you are finished.

Celtic Literature and Civilisation Lesson FIIK3

[godinakilt.livejournal.com]

"Feasgar math, mo chlas," Camulus says when class begins. "We have some things to sort away before we begin the lesson." He consults the calendar on his desk (which doesn't happen to be the 'Men in Kilts' one. Not at all.) and double-checks. "Yes. We have five more classes, after this one, before the end of the term. One of these classes will be devoted to your final exam, which will take place on Monday, December 19th. The following Wednesday, if anyone's still here, you'll have a chance to review your exam and do whatever it is Tau'ri children typically do the last day of school. Which leaves us three classes all of next week. Which means you, my lovelies, have quite a bit of reading ahead of you if we are to finish the Tain. Means that for Monday's class you will have to read up to 'The Combat of Cur with Cuchulainn'. For Wednesday, up to 'The Combat of Ferdiad with Cuchulainn, so that you can have it read completely for Friday. In theory. Friday I will also give you a review for your exam." He pauses, as if unsure whether or not to mention the next item. "I apologise for my absence the last two classes. I've been making arrangements, negotiating my passage off this planet, finding somewhere to go. I'm leaving Fandom after this semester."

With that, he stands up, goes to the board, and begins writing down names and lecturing on the sections of the Tain covered so far.

[[Posted early because I actually have to read the Tain before my Celtic Lit exam tomorrow. No lecture for the same reason. I may be in and out later, depending on how my willpower holds up.]]

Wrestling Club, Cancelled Forever

[names-ash.livejournal.com]

The P.A. crackles to life.

"A-hem. Due to a sudden outbreak of mold and fungus in our wrestling mats and the fact that our club's funds are gone, Wrestling Club has officially disbanded. Those worried about covering your extra curricular activities for the rest of the term don't need to worry, I got your backs on this. That is all, knuckleheads."

Journalism Class - Friday December 9

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

Class today is cancelled. There is, however, a notice scrawled across the main newsfeed screen in bright red.

YOUR FINAL PROJECT IS DUE BY MIDNIGHT TONIGHT! There are no exceptions or extensions allowed. Now would be a good time to finish up.





((OOC: There were two extensions granted, I believe, due to OOC circumstances. Those two stand. Everyone else has till midnight.))

Investigator's Club, the Library -- NFB

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

After kicking out everyone who wasn't a library aide, a Librarian, or incipient club member, Parker hung a sign on the outside door:

INVESTIGATOR'S CLUB MEETING
PRIVATE

Then adjourned to the counter, where the brownies, drinks, cookies, and fudge were.

Hopefully, more than just Marty, Zero, Janet and the Souled Wonder were going to show.

[OOC: Now with OCD check-in, explanation, faculty, and Officer threads!]

The Doctor's (School) Office: Friday Office Hours

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[Coffee. Mainlined.

The Doctor is a bit dazed today, but he is here and willing to talk to students about their projects. Need help, stop by. Want to drive him up the wall, stop by.]

CULTIVATION & GARDENING // December 9th

[jquayle.livejournal.com]

"As I promised, we will be learning about the word 'sustainability' which will come in handy later on in the year, this is a great thing to learn. Next week will be your exam, and don't worry that won't be too h ard, if you paid attention in class and did your work, then you'll be A-Okay!"


( Lesson Two: What is permaculture? Handout )

[[Pretty threads are being set up! Done!]]

(no subject)

[brambless.livejournal.com]

Tara's nose is red, her voice harsh and scratchy. She's still not recovered from her virus, but she's in class by 8am.

"First of all, I need to apologise to you all for last week. I misjudged things badly, and I hurt people. You have no reason to forgive me for that, and I'm not asking you to. I simply want you to know that I am truly sorry.

"A few people suggested last week that I have no business being an ethics teacher. It's given me a lot to think about. In the end, it doesn't matter whether you're right - what matters is that you believe you are. I will not be teaching again next semester."

She drops her eyes, suppressing a chesty cough.

"Discussion topics today are your own choice. Raise an ethical issue, give us your opinion on it, and then engage in someone else's discussion. You're debating with each other today, not with me."

Quietly she sits down at her desk, taking out her notebook to observe the discussion, but resolving not to enter into it.

Speech Comm

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Still stunned by the pageant last night, she brings in several dvd's. Today the class watches, without any obvious ties to InterComm...

Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown
Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer
and
The Little Drummer Boy

CJ sits at her desk with an utterly dreamy expression, doodling on her tablet.

Study Hall, Friday 12-9

[CJ sits at the desk, scribbling in her tablet. She's daydreaming and utterly oblivious to all of the students and their chatter because the mun is finalizing her 55 page rough of her thesis.

Introduction to Anthropology

[the-ascended.livejournal.com]

"Good morning, guys," Daniel says, with a smile, before looking serious. "Just to get it out of the way... Chihaya, Death and Susan Ivanova all have detention tomorrow for missing three classes. People, if you miss a class, notes are good, and come to see me to get make-up work.

Right, today we're going to start looking at famous anthropologists. Now, who knows anything about the Leakey Family?

Okay, homework from Wednesday on my desk. For this weekend, I want a timeline of the Leakeys and also, a hundred words on the Leakey Foundation. That's for Monday. Have a great weekend."

Mathematics: Beginners Exam

'Revision session'

There are a pile of worksheets at the front of the room covering this term's topics.

Geomorphology
Cartography
Hydrology
Carbon cycle
Climate zones
Weathering

Any questions?

Egyptian Archaeology

[the-ascended.livejournal.com]

"Good afternoon, class," Daniel says. "First things first." He looks down at his grade book. "Edward Elric, Lily Evans, you both have detention this weekend for missing three classes.

Now." He shut the book. "Last lesson we discussed the Valley of the Kings. Today, I want the Valley of the Queens.

And for homework, I want you to chose about a tomb found in either of the Valleys and write a report on it for me. Have a good weekend guys."

Mathematics: Intermediates Exam

[charlieeppes.livejournal.com]

Intermediates Exam will be held on Wednesday instead.


(ooc: as player's mind is unbuttery toast.)

Daniel's office hours

[the-ascended.livejournal.com]

He's got homework to mark.

He's got finals to write.

Neither of which seem very appealing.

But his copy of Archaeology was. And if anyone asked, he could say that he was reading it for inspiration. Right?

After cool down from basketball, a short quiz on the rules of the game is presented. Cookies and non alcoholic eggnog accompany it.

OOC Note: THis should have been posted Thursday. Gym sessions WILL be regular next semester. Meanwhile, post as you can. This is late so you have amnesty to do so for attendance.
