Mostly history, literature, arts, that sort of thing, with a slight tendancy to go "ooh!" over weather and geography and geology and that sort of thing. Ooh, and languages. I am the great Language Girl! please ignore the fact that I'm still monolingual.
I don't know much about the history department here, but I'll check around; the geology department is really good. Languages I'll know more about next month, after exposure to the Russian department, but a lot of students here study abroad -- the block plan makes it considerably simpler logistically (for example, intermediate and advanced Russian can both be taken in St. Petersburg as blocks 7 & 8, which is much cheaper than a semester abroad, and doesn't b0rk up the rest of one's schedule as much. Me being a suicidal twit, I'm going to try to spend the first semester of my junior year in Mongolia, and the last two blocks of it in Russia). The Arabic and Hebrew adjuncts through the religion department are also nice ways to get mini-intros to languages into a tight schedule (and I heart the Arabic teacher).
I have heard rather so-so things about the math department here, aside from the stats profs, but the natural sciences/math requirement can be fulfilled without any math -- you could take, say, psych and one or two science for poets classes (and there are a lot of really nifty sfp classes here).
Anyway, you're *still* cool, and I still want to stalk you. And maybe send you chocolates and things.

Science and math scare me, though.
*cough*ImightpossiblybetryingtoconvinceeveryoneIknowtocomeheremaybe.*cough*)
That would be ubercool. :)
But I am an utter n00b in the SCA!
And I've spent my entire life in it, and yet don't know the first thing about it. *stoopid, hee*

It's possible I fangirl on people too easily...
