Hey guys, what are your favorite sci fi books? I mean for me, it’s definetly dune because of it’s amazing world building and political depth. And also because the book has aged so well and maintained it’s relevancy, like it was published in 1965!

Because there’s 4 pages of quotes, we were talking about very different stuff, which caused the seminar to not be a “discussion” but … Read more
So we had another seminar. I got a A4C6, but the A4 was only earned from the second class. I think I did pretty well on the second class. I did miss connecting points in the first class, though. I could do better if I had connected more points and quotes in the first class. … Read more
