Sophomore J Fro idcd hv: Tdpi Wcxicr My favorite class is Music 279 - Choir. You can be a non-music major and get a chance to still sing, which I love... At the same time though, it is challeng- ing. You sing in differ- ent languages: German, French, Latin, and more... I loved every minute of it. --Tom Wf.v t ' r. Senior Regardless of interests, location or major, every Temple graduate has one thing in common - everyone has sat through several rounds of Temple University classes. Temple offers courses in everything from Rus- sian and Arabic, to studies on language and the brain, to several rounds of organic chemistry, to liberal arts courses focusing on the connection bclw ecn the North Philadelphia community and the media. Classes are as mundane as standard courses in chemistry and composi- tion, or as specialized as studios on protests in the 1960s. Class sizes vary as well. Seminar classrooms cater to groups of less than 20, while other buildings hold IccUirc halls w ilh o er 200 seals. ' I ' cmple classes are not loo large or loo small, so ou rc w illing to ask questions but cui ne er feel singled out, sophomore political sci- ence major Aashka Merchant said. - Eitzahclh l irks 22 Classes
