Maybe an odd request, but… My best friend will be studying in Berlin (we’re from Florida) for the Spring semester and I want to get her something for Christmas that she’ll be able to use there (aside from the obvious scarf/hat/gloves). Part of my gift is going to be 20€ for something fun, but aside [...]
Is anyone here in CLA160H1, Intro to Classical Civilizations? I’m taking the course next semester (as I’m in the Classics program). Problem is, there are two more courses I’m debating on taking as well (a Philosophy course because I’m trying to count it as a minor or co-specialist, and a French course to brush up), [...]
Has anyone gone wine tasting in Napa from Berkeley? Is there a cheapish shuttle or bus you’d recommend?
I’m switching out of my current section of Power, and my options for next quarter’s professors are: -Herrigel -Westerman -Silberman -Rosenzweig -Woodly -Marshall -McGill -Liegel Do you know anything about any of these and recommend/discourage that I register for a certain one’s section? Thanks.

And it’s not the toilet bowl. The Pac Ten has contracts with six bowl games: Rose, Holiday, Sun, Emerald, Las Vegas, and Armed Forces. Only six Pac Ten teams have 6 wins or better: U$C, ASU, Oregon, OSU, UCLA, and Cal. ASU stands a good chance to be picked for the Fiesta Bowl, which would [...]
:’( is all i’ve got. how about that longshore reaction after he threw the last pick of the night? i say last because obviously his first is never his last. anyways, he didn’t look all that surprised..and i must say i wasn’t surprised either. it was more like oh he threw another one, i guess [...]
Does anyone know how they draw the GPA lines for Distinction/High Distinction/Highest Distinction? I know it uses the average GPA’s of the last four years, but is it set so Distinction=top 10%, High=top 5%, Highest=top 1% or some sort of equivalent tiered percentage system? I need to “estimate my class rank” for a law school [...]
