[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Iowa has the Writer's Workshop -- widely recognized as the premier creative writing program in the country -- which is primarily a graduate program but also offers about 20 courses at the undergraduate level.  There's also a non-fiction writing program at Iowa.   If an undergrad has any interest in writing, Iowa is nationally known -- and a magnet for writers and intellectual life -- in a way that has no direct counterpart at Arizona.

Sorry to digress from the riveting discussion of weather.   [/quote]
Astrophysics at Arizona is similarly outstanding. (Yes, really.)[/quote]

Of course it is, not many fields more location driven.  Yet, intro astronomy is no different than anywhere else, a way to get a science credit with two multiple choice tests and a moon journal.[/quote]

I took that class and no, that’s not what it was. But obviously a 101 class doesn’t represent the entire major or department. Why are you so angry about U of A not being awful across the board? [/quote]

It’s not awful across the board, a self starter can get a very good education there, and plenty of individual attention, but the quality of gen ed classes is very low because of the population.[/quote]
