I think a lot of this is going to be rehashing what was said on Thursday, but eh, a blog post is a blog post! I think having a general overview of topics in the first week would be good, and I think more time spent on non-bio topics would also be good. I really liked having the guest lecturers – I know they were a little tricky to get, but it was really nice getting to talk to people about their field of study without it being a straight-up traditional lecture. Administrative stuff kind of got a little nuts, but given that this is the first time this course has been run, it’s not surprising. I feel like a lot of times, people were generally leaning in one direction on a topic, but nobody quite wanted to commit and make a solid decision, which dragged things out a little.
