Pretty early on in my college career, I realized that I needed to figure out what courses I'm going to take and when. Changes can be tracked by simply clicking the '''history''' tab at the top of the page and then using MediaWiki's diff function.

if you notice, the foreign language and music electives drop off after the spring 07 semester. i actually plan on taking them anyway. also from this i can see that I will cover all but 1 one of the breadth requirements - the philosophy one. who needs that anyway? mmmmm let’s talk about the meaning of life....
