How many people were there in your ABS201 class last year? Is it possible to audit the class without being noticed?

Hey there, ducky :)

There were approximately 180 or so people in my class last year. So this is definitely a class where you could audit without being noticed. I think that depending on the professor, once you hit under the 100 mark it becomes difficult, making it near impossible to audit any seminar class without asking the professor permission to audit the class beforehand. So definitely go check it out! :)

I hope this helps and let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you.

With love and hope,

ABS201 and My Love for Nature

"And in the racial memory, Ko-sahn had seen the falling stars. For her there was no distinction between the individual and the racial experience, even as there was none between the mythical and the historical. Both were realised for her in the one memory, and that was of the land. This landscape, in which she had lived for a hundred years, was the common denominator of everything that she knew and would ever know - and her knowledge was profound. Her roots ran deep into the earth, and from those depths she drew strength enough to hold still against all the forces of chance and disorder. And she drew strength enough to hold still against all the forces of change and disorder. And she drew therefrom the sustenance of meaning and of mystery as well. The falling stars were not for Ko-sahn an isolated or accidental phenomenon. She had a great personal investment in that awful commotion of light in the night sky. For it remained to be imagined. She must at least deal with it in words; she must appropriate it to her understanding of the whole universe. And, again, when she spoke of the Sun Dance, it was an essential expression of her relationship to the life of the earth and to the sun and moon." - N. Scott Momaday

This is why aboriginal studies is so amazing. That is how I have always felt my relationship with land and nature my whole life.
