CODA Class Aesthetics
py205/206: a late night in D.H. Hill with your textbook and WebAssign pulled up and a lukewarm coffee, the camaraderie of walking to an exam with dozens of your classmates on a Tuesday night, slowly befriending your lab partners, jealousy towards the people who have Dr. Weninger, a quiet afternoon in the Riddick atrium
ma141: the sight of a giant lecture hall for the first time, getting Atrium food with your study group, rolling your eyes at quotient rule problems, trying to figure out what the heck the squeeze theorem is, "are we allowed to use a calculator on the test?", the dopamine high from a green check mark on WebAssign
ma241: feeling super smart for deriving Newton's Law of Cooling, programming Reimann sums into your graphing calculator, never escaping trig substitution, disoriented from switching between Cartesian and polar coordinates, appreciating telescoping series' for their simplicity
ch101/102: your first F on a college assignment, titrating backwards when you accidentally go too far, lab coats and goggles, never being able to find a table to study at in Fox labs, getting out of lab early and sitting outside, commiserating about homework with your lab partners, walking out of the one lecture you actually paid attention in and just thinking about all the chemical reactions that make the world go round
