aaah!
my friend erin just posted in her blog about a class at uc berkeley that’s happening next semester – it’s called “Sex Change City: Theorizing History in Genderqueer San Francisco,” and is taught by susan stryker. this course makes me giddy.
i’ve been trying to figure out how to make things work out so that i can take the class. i found this bit on the ccsf website:
This program with CCSF and the University of California, Berkeley, provides qualified students the opportunity to enroll in one free UCB course.
… but then i came across this bit, finishing it up:
Students who have attended four-year colleges or universities are not eligible.
humbug.
all of this came up as i was in the middle of looking into some things that i’ve been wanting for christmas, and i was like “yes! this is the best christmas present ever!” … but it turned out to be a lie.
any ideas on how i can fenangle this, anyone?
in other news, i was a fantastic eleanor roosevelt! i’m thinking about wearing the costume again and making cubbie take pictures of me wearing it, because it’s pretty darn cute. i got a lot of compliments on the outfit, and it sounds like my fairly unrehearsed presentation was amusing and educational. woo! one course down.
