<hr />
<div>===Sit at my table===<br />
<br />
If you sit down, I won't look at you funny.<br />
<br />
#Evan Miller feels funny being at the top of this long list.<br />
#Lisetta Shah<br />
#Jono Dowse<br />
#Joe McDonough; but how will you know it's me? I shall wear a blue carnation in my buttonhole. "It's not the time of year for oranges," I will say. Respond "The herring flies at midnight."<br />
#[http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view?unix=06jps Joe Shoer], who does not actually wear laser goggles on a regular basis. He is also capable of talking about much more than anchor housing.<br />
#Leah Shoer (I figure, why not? This is your last semester to meet both Shoers. You might even get a two-fer if you time it right.)<br />
#LaVonna Bowen (06lmb) will look at you funny, but she does that with everyone.<br />
#Jason Ren (08jcr) will discuss the merits of universal cosmetic surgery, and bring the salmon<br />
#Aston Gonzalez<br />
#Cat Vielma (will probably look at you funny, and don't bring salmon!)<br />
#Rachel Winch<br />
#Rahul Shah (09ras). I eat almost every meal at Driscoll. Come join me. I usually engage in interesting discussion at meal time.<br />
#[[Morgan Goodwin]] (08mjg). Mission mostly<br />
#Sunmi Yang (Doesn't actually go to meals, but can usually be found at the Snack Bar. As in, almost every night.)<br />
#Jordan Landers. Can be found at breakfast in Driscoll with a whole grapefruit.<br />
#Kate Majzoub (I mostly eat on benches)<br />
#Katie Montgomery likes meeting new people. <br />
#Teng Jian Khoo (If you randomly see a long-haired guy eating alone at Mission, it's probably me)<br />
#[[Peter Nunns]]; you bring the conversation topics. Unless otherwise prompted, I only talk about zombies, Futurism, famous lunatics, beards, and the shortcomings/failures of capitalism. - as a side note, Peter is crazy and topics may also stray to giant squid, eugenics, sado-masochism and the glory of [[Morgan West]]<br />
#Ben Howard<br />
#Jarrad Wood<br />
#[[Diana Davis '07|Diana Davis]]<br />
#Zach Safford (Not afraid to play with food)<br />
#Dan Winston (Not afraid to play with Zach)<br />
#Elissa Brown (Well, anyways, the only thing we have to fear is fear itself)<br />
#Jessica Rodriguez<br />
#Kashif Akhtar<br />
<br />
===Drop by my room===<br />
<br />
Bored and wandering campus? Stop and say hello to someone.<br />
<br />
#[http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view?unix=06jps Joe Shoer] (Come see my vintage '77 Star Wars poster!)<br />
#[http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view?unix=06lmb LaVonna Bowen] plays video games when she's not working. Which is all the time.<br />
#[[Alan Cordova]] (Stop by Sawyer carrel 3N30 to see my vintage '05 Kyrgyz election posters!)<br />
#[http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view?unix=08aaw Anna Weber] will even give you a small houseplant, free of charge. (They make very good pets.)<br />
<br />
===Buy me dinner=== <br />
<br />
If you swipe us, we will come. Very cool seniors on the zero meal plan who love to be guest mealed:<br />
<br />
#Michael Gallagher (06tmg) (I like breakfast and lunch too)<br />
#Rachel Winch (06rlw)<br />
#Ben Cohen (06bdc)<br />
#Heather Casteel (06hdc) (particularly enjoys sunday brunch)<br />
#Jason Law (06jl) (hair's making a recovery)<br />
#Kate Majzoub (06kmm)<br />
#M. Esa Seegulam (06mes) (Sold his hair for a meal)<br />
#Roy Liu (06rl)<br />
#Jen Messier (06jam_2)<br />
#Jess Lovaas (06jll)<br />
#Gillian McBride (06gmm) (parents love me and so will you)<br />
#Kathryn Fromson (06kef) misses dining hall lunch, not so much dinner<br />
#Julie Esteves (06jte) loves people...but only if they provide her with food<br />
<br />
===Eat my food===<br />
<br />
If you want, I'll cook something for you (caveat esor)<br />
<br />
#Alan Cordova (06arc_2)<br />
#Jordan Landers (Cooks healthy food. Really tasty healthy food. Amazing.)<br />
#Teng Jian Khoo (09tk) I have too much food right now. It may or may not have to be cooked, but if you want Malaysian food, you know where to get it.<br />
<br />
===Will eat your food===<br />
<br />
If you cook for me, I'll eat it. And hopefully like it.<br />
<br />
#Eduardo Lizarraga (08eml). I am vegetarian, so please no meat or fish. Cheese and eggs are fine.<br />
#Rachel Winch (06rlw). For real. E-mail me! I especially love vegetables and things that don't contain meat.<br />
#Jono Dowse. Mm-mm-mmm.<br />
#Sunmi Yang. Will probably eat anything and everything set in front of her.<br />
<br />
===Will cook for you and eat your food===<br />
<br />
I like reciprocity. Cook me food, and I'll eat it, and then I'll make you food- not necessarily in that order or at the same time.<br />
<br />
#Lisetta Shah<br />
<br />
===Will be an asshole===<br />
<br />
I will "cook for you," but I will then shun you and feed it all to my farm animals, just to spite you and waste your time. If/when you cook for me, I will tell you it is shitty and you should go die, before you even start cooking.<br />
<br />
#Peter Shin (is a real asshole).<br />
<br />
===Will eat the animals you have slain and cooked===<br />
<br />
If you kill it, and then cook it for me, I'll eat it.<br />
<br />
#[[Peter Nunns]]<br />
#[[Michael Hagerty '08]]<br />
#Natalia Gonzales (whose father actually slays a cow every year, storing it in the Gonzales freezer for consumption... Natalia misses fresh beef)<br />
<br />
===Will eat animals you procure (not necessarily cooked or slain)===<br />
<br />
If you find it, and put it in front of me, I'll eat it.<br />
<br />
#[[Toby Hall]]<br />
<br />
===Will give you a smoke and stay for a chat===<br />
<br />
#[[Julianne Shelby '06]]: I live in the basement of Fitch, smoke outside of it all the time. Hit me up if you're short on cigs, I smoke Marlboro Reds, and I always have an axe to grind.<br />
<br />
===Will kill animals===<br />
<br />
#Auyon Mukharji: Willy C, off of the common room. Give me a call if you want to go dropkick puppies or something.<br />
#Michael Anthony Del Rio: If by animals you mean communist agitators, I'm your man.<br />
#[[Peter Nunns]]: Always up for a good vivisection.<br />
#[[Jessica Walthew]]: As long it's Sam Weinreich, 09sjw. He may be bony but it's probably worth it anyway. <br />
#[[Toby Hall]]: Will kill caribou and other large game with bare hands. Tips appreciated, but not necessary.<br />
#[[Rahul Shah]]: Might kill the bacterium that is on your nose.<br />
<br />
===Easy Target for Slaughter and Eating===<br />
<br />
#[[Samuel Weinreich]]: Location: East College Room 105, careful, he's usually naked (and it's not a pretty sight). May also be found playing Mario Kart, follow the annoying "woo hoo" noise. Preferred weapons with which to maim him: spears, marmots.<br />
#[[Jarrad Wood]]: Usually found in Thompson or Schow. Follow the annoying laugh noises. Throw books at him, with Orgo mechanisms written all over them.</div>08emlhttps://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Cluster_Pick_2006&diff=8002Cluster Pick 20062006-03-04T00:32:16Z<p>08eml: /* 2008 */</p>
<hr />
<div>This page attempts to provide a mechanism for students to coordinate their cluster picks in 2006. The basic idea is that people with high picks can let others know where they intend to pick so that lower ranked students can focus their energies accordingly. Groups may also try to coordinate on specific houses. Please edit this page by inserting your group number, the names of the people in it, and likely selection at the appropriate spot. <br />
<br />
Add more # symbols to increase the number of the list until it gets to yours, making sure to put something (such as -fill in-) on every line you add. Note that if you put a big string of # signs without writing something on each line, the numbers will all be printed on top of each other and no one will know what pick you have.<br />

Be aware that intimidation or manipulation of any kind is not allowed. It almost became a major issue in the co-op draw and almost resulted in the invalidation of some of the pick groups.</div>08emlhttps://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Cluster_Pick_2006&diff=8001Cluster Pick 20062006-03-04T00:30:10Z<p>08eml: /* 2008 */</p>
<hr />
<div>This page attempts to provide a mechanism for students to coordinate their cluster picks in 2006. The basic idea is that people with high picks can let others know where they intend to pick so that lower ranked students can focus their energies accordingly. Groups may also try to coordinate on specific houses. Please edit this page by inserting your group number, the names of the people in it, and likely selection at the appropriate spot. <br />
<br />
Add more # symbols to increase the number of the list until it gets to yours, making sure to put something (such as -fill in-) on every line you add. Note that if you put a big string of # signs without writing something on each line, the numbers will all be printed on top of each other and no one will know what pick you have.<br />

<div>Difficulty is not a primary concern here; the courses listed may range from [[Easy classes]] to [[Hard Classes]]. Questions of relevance: Did you leave the class with the sense that you learned something meaningful? Did your semester review sheets glow with high praise? A professor change your outlook?

<br />
=== Computer Science 237 ===<br />
If you're ever going to want to build a computer out of transistors and wires, this is the class to take. You work your way up from logic gates and down from assembly until they meet in the Dreaded Microcode Project.<br />
<br />
=== History 135T ===<br />
This is the best class I have taken at Williams. There is a lot of reading, but about 90% of it is interesting and I'm glad I read it. Professor Wood is also the man, and having him explain history is sort of like having the golden rule explained to you by Jesus.<br />
<br />
=== Math 211 T ===<br />
Linear algebra is a great class. Prof. Silva might be perceived as a dry person sometimes; but the material more than makes up for it. If you have any interest in science, this is the class for you.<br />
Silva is actually often incorrectly perceived as an incomprehensible person. He's very smart and entertaining, If you want an interesting math class, take 211T<br />
<br />
===Math 301/305===<br />
Real Analysis lets you see the heart of numbers. You thought you knew what the numbers were? You will see much, much more after this course. If you are good at math and you like it because you are good at it, this class will test you to go above liking math because it is easy, to liking math because it is beautiful and deep. Additionally, Morgan's book teaches you everything you need to know by making you do it yourself, without anything irrelevant.<br />
<br />
=== Math 316/Physics 316 ===<br />
This is the Cryptography course, using applications of Abstract Algebra and Quantum Mechanics. Gotta know a little linear algebra to get through this since the work is a bit tough. If you love good professors, Professors Loepp and Wootters double your pleasure. The first problem set was decoding a long message that was coded with a Vigenere cipher. Good times, tough exams. Definitely do it if you're of the Div3 ilk.<br />
<br />
=== Philosophy 270 ===<br />
Arguing About God: all the long-drawn out religious arguments we're not allowed to have in polite society. Very engagingly taught by Steven Gerrard, it covers most of the major viewpoints on God and faith. If you've got an itch to debate logically about questions of faith and reason, this is the class to take.<br />
<br />
=== Philosophy 342T ===<br />
Virtue Ethics tutorial taught by Bridget Clarke. Examines and questions the fundamental assumptions of our everyday unthinking moral thought; suggests an alternative way to frame and speak about moral issues. Makes you reflect deeply upon your own decisions and purpose in life. Cuts through the bullshit and asks hard questions about your own treasured ideas, in a way that few other Williams classes can manage. The readings and discussions in this class may have the effect of changing you.<br />
<br />
=== Psychology 242 ===<br />
Social psychology will affect the way you think about things that people do in your everyday life. Seemingly meaningless events, like what gestures you make while talking to someone, or how you feel about something you bought, take on meaning and importance after taking this class. The lecture format that sometimes arises from this course's popularity is unfortunate, but the material is awesome.<br />
<br />
=== History 207 ===<br />
History of the Modern Middle East: Blows a lot of your preconceived notions about the middle east out of the water. Adds levels of complexity to issues you thought you understood, but probably didn't. A lot of reading. Most people end this course by falling madly in love with Magnus Bernhardsson who, despite being completely oblivious of it, is extremely funny.</div>08emlhttps://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Interesting_classes&diff=7271Interesting classes2006-02-11T23:34:17Z<p>08eml: /* Math 211 T */</p>
