Just another class

One thing I love about Witt is the fact that it is a liberal arts school and I have the opportunity to take classes that I would never have the opportunity to take at a large, state school. With that having been said, there is also a downside. The one class I could not stand was for my gen ed requirement and I had no interest in the topic of discussion at all. The class was my geology 110 course that I took the fall of my junior year. I am in no way, shape or form a scientist, nor do I desire to be one, and this professor taught this into level course as if we were all aspiring to be geologists. The crazy thing is he even asked on the first day how many of us were in the geology program, and not one student raised their hand. Essentially, the problem was that the teacher had a hard time simplifying his information to make it easy enough for us to understand. It was also difficult, because even when I would go to meet with him he was not helpful at all. What was reassuring to me though was that I was not alone, and almost everyone in that class felt like they were drowning with no one to save them. On the other hand I have definitely enjoyed more classes than not here at Wittenberg. I would have to say that my all-time favorite at the moment is my horsemanship class that I am currently enrolled in for my gym credit. Every Wednesday our class travels 45 minutes to Marmon Valley Farm where we get to ride horses for two hours. We split our time between trail rides and personalized lessons in the arena which is a great time. I think it is awesome that Witt offers a course like this, which brings me back to my love for the liberal arts education. Below is a picture of me and my horse, Jasmine.
