Am I lacking civility?

My message to Dr. Montoya: Dr. Montoya, I think there is a problem with Test 2. The test does not present in order. The questions are jumbled up, which makes deciphering your question groups nearly impossible. Curtis M. Kularski PSYC 443 D1 His reply: Hi Curtis; Thank you for writing. I just checked the test […]

NCCCS Descriptions for Elective Options

I’m still seeking that perfect course for my final 3 credit hours for Spring 2011 (and likely my final 3 credit hours earned as an undergraduate). This course does not have to count toward any program, or even be transferable back to another school. The course just has to be interesting and fun to me. […]

Planned Spring 2011 Semester

This is what the Spring 2011 semester for me looks like so far from my planning. Things may change a little if certain things don’t work out, but this looks to be pretty stable.  ART 114 is currently standing in for my elective course for the semester. Introduction to SPSS [SOCI333] An introduction to the […]

Insomnia, Again

I am starting to feel like I will never sleep again. I am awake working on a paper that I don’t really have to finish right now, but yet I know if I lay down, I will not sleep. I am not tired and have no desire to sleep. It is much too warm to […]

An Update on SOCI 210

The registrar at Gaston (Dellinger) responded to my e-mail about what Dr. Miller said (“The instructor says you won’t let him post my grade early”), asking for who the instructor is (you know, cause looking me up in the system to find the course and instructor would be hard cause of my common last name) […]

Chaos of my Academic Life

The situation: Registration opens on November 1. I have no courses left in my major that I need to take, but I have several to complete in my minor (sociology). I must have the pre-requisite course SOCI 210 to register for courses in the sociology minor. SOCI 210 is not offered in a form that […]

RT: Social Networking Hinders Social Development

Facebook, Twitter and RSS are not replacements for having actual conversations or for spending time with people. Attempting to communicate to many people at once looses the individuality and places a strain on attempts at conversation. Do not expect people to have read your blog or checked your latest Tweets. Talk to people, treat them […]

GRE Pain

I have recently begun preparing for the GRE, Graduate Records Examination, and I am starting to feel pained by the stuff I have to learn. I thought an undergraduate education was supposed to prepare me for this, but apparently not. The vocabulary words themselves are very difficult and I am not sure how well I […]

Security Concerns

I have never been one for much security when it comes to my technology. I like to keep my network secure, but I’m not one to necessarily have a lot of different passwords or use things like virus scanners or firewalls (outside of a firewall router). This makes me a not very good person for […]
