awesome post. Math is the work of the devil, if the devil was an abacus and your life was a calculus problem.

typing hard.

"abstract" not "absract".

still, go learn some real math.

whoa whoa, have any of you guys ever even taken a math course? take some absract algebra or some number theory or something where you are actually required to write a proof before you go judging on math!
because the crap you are talking about is not really math. it is "math".

well, at least you and math still have a solid his...

well, at least you and math still have a solid history to fall back on in these tough times.

i wish i were closer to math. i didn't try hard enough and it kicked my ass. :( which meant i couldn't continue with science. :(

i know you will triumph over this 303 nonsense!

Hahahaha!I love your love of math (other than ME 3...

2008-07-29T10:01:26.030-04:00

Hahahaha!

I love your love of math (other than ME 305).

I hope that I can dig deep and find a love of math before school starts.

This class sounds like hell on wheels. Way to go out with a bang, dude.

Ahha! I do love this, Lise. Steph

i was definitely in the 'i don't like math, let's go to the mall' group with barbie. just the name of your class scares me.

2008-07-28T16:39:06.012-04:00

I study history in college, math and I have never really got along. During science classes, I loved talking about theories of universal properties. However, when it came to the equations that proved them, I gave math the finger and never looked back...

I feel ya, Math and I broke up last year.

2008-07-28T16:23:16.553-04:00

at least you care enough to right math a letter. me? i would love to mule kick math down an endless black pit (much like that scene from 300). that would make my life complete.

oh yeah. expect a comeback for this one.

2008-07-28T13:41:43.221-04:00

I had the same relationship with math as you did. I wanted to take as much calculus as I could get my hands on.

And then math couldn't keep me interested.... I broke up with Math and moved on to Science. Who is SO much cooler.

2008-07-28T13:26:26.784-04:00

i have definitely never used trigonometric identities. well, i don't THINK i have, anyway, considering i have no clue what they are.

2008-07-28T13:23:17.078-04:00

I was a big math fan until I hit calculus in college and then I said screw you math and away I went. It's not that it was too hard, but I just didn't enjoy it. Math needs to go back to being cool!!

2008-07-28T13:06:02.645-04:00

I've been with Thermo from the start. And I agree with this ME303 bs! Seriously...when am I EVER GOING TO NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE EXACT EQUATION OF THE WAVE ON A STRING IS?! Oh...yeha? NEVER. Ugh! Mental head smack.

lo only a few weeks ago i told you the tale of "The Math Wall" and now you meet him in person! I am psychic.

2008-07-28T10:04:42.893-04:00

All this talk about math is getting me all hot and bothered, you tease! And don't get me started on Fluid Mechanics. You know, Thermodynamics is nicknamed "the heat" for more than one reason!
