Biochem is not hard. I know of two KSU football players in Chem 1. Additionally, Bio 198 is nearly half full of football players.

Biochem is a bitch, near the end of the semester I had absolutely no idea what was going on. And I still got a C. Thanks American education system.

so i looked.  there seems to be 3 classes that are basically for tards.  and another for advanced tards.  so, i suppose they're in one of those.  still seems that they'd be guided into remedial tard classes outside of the sciences.

My GF took the tard version a few summers ago, and said it was half athletes.  Saw some of the material and it made music listening lab look like rocket science.  I think I was just jealous.

What a fantastic art credit, those were the days.

Did anyone ever take that Geology class with George R. Clark III where you were supposed to bring colored cards to class to vote on answers to his review questions?  The one where all you had to do to get an A was memorize answers from old tests.

That's what the athletes should be taking.  That, Appreciating Architecture, and P.World Lab.

I think the class I had with him was called Earth in Action, or something similar.  It was about rocks, which are different than minerals . . . :zzz:

yes there was an earth in action.  Nat Dis. kicked ass.  I still remember quite a bit about the class.  Santorini, Krakatoa, Lisbon tidal wave, Port Royale etc.

I got kicked out of that class with Stephen Washington (starting center) for giving Danny Morris (3rd string RB) a scantron card to take the daily quiz.  Then I fired off a nasty email to GRCIII and he apologized.  Me and Steve just went to the union and chilled for a while.  Good times.

The sciences were never my strong suit, so I took all my KSU science classes at the Ft. Riley campus.  I hardly went to class and got an A.
