Getting Started

As it turns out, I have to take the Anatomy and Physiology waiver exam. After spending a whole year at UNO in A&P, I am dreading having to take yet another semester of it. All students are required to "drop in" on the A&P class throughout the semester, but those who are required to take the waiver exam and do not pass it, will be graded. Those who pass the waiver exam will simply audit. Of course, I want to audit. So I have one week to review a whole year of A&P. (Eww) I have to take the test by Friday, I need a 74 to pass. (We don't have letter grades, woo hoo!) I'll let you know how it goes.

Today I stood outside and waited 40 minutes for a shuttle. A shuttle that was never going to come because the shuttles don't run on the weekends. Of course I called before I walked to the shuttle stop, and they (the transportation office) told me that the shuttles DO run on the weekends, so I would have never known. But, contrary to this experience, my school actually has a very good transportation system...any time the shuttles aren't running, you can simply call and have an escort (ie: campus van) come pick you up and take you where you need to go! So five minutes after I contacted the transportation office, my own little shuttle arrived to take me to school this morning.
