The Department of Pharmacology here at the U of M is offering a new course next fall called Mechanisms of Drug Action. I’ll have to admit the topic fascinates me and I’m really thinking about signing up for the class. It meets for 1 hour twice a week, which is very manageable. However, it would be at the same time as Sabre Fencing (so I’d have to drop that one). That wouldn’t be the end of the world because I’ll still have Ballroom Dance (maybe Fencing wasn’t for me anyway).

I don’t quite meet the prereqs for the class (Biology/Biochemistry classes), but I’ve had Organic Chemistry II which they said would be sufficient for understanding what was going on. The class looks like it will be pretty small as well—maybe 20 students.

If nothing else, it might spur an interest for me to consider medical school again—something my parents have been pushing for but I’ve been rejecting.
