CSCT/English 2J03

I took this class Term II of 2005/2006 with Tim Walters, who no longer teaches at Mac.

Tim was awesome, I had him for four classes that year.

Anyways...this is an open English class, so it is suitable for people outside of English/CSCT/Comp Lit. That's not to say it's really easy: you are still subjected to writing essays at the university level. It's the content that makes it easy.

I had two essays, a tutorial presentation and a final exam if I recall correctly.

What was the content about? The course calendar is so vague with these english classes; all I really got out of it was that it's about Pop Culture.

Well...popular culture?

Media, consumption, counterculture, subculture, movies...

The prof I had is gone now so it's likely the content may be a little bit different.
