you don't get to fundamentals or deeper-level problems in entry level classes. title of the class was a dead giveaway too. this is your own fault.

You're safe in this thread, friend.

Do you guys even know how to play the game?
Look up your professors. See what kind of shit they've published. Read excerpts of it. Listen to people's opinions of them. Hell, invite someone in the department (your adviser?) to lunch and talk to them about whatshisname. Then you'll know if they're the real deal or not.

Swear to god, the way naming college courses works you could take "20th Century English Lit" and end up reading Portuguese restaurant menus for a whole semester.

Are we in the same class? I got the same text. The poetry class is paired with a semiotics class that focuses on pop culture. Fucking community college man.

Rand is a waste of time. Get out OP before you become a useless utilitarian.

>>7066724
and what should he focus on? Social issues?

>>7064934
Stay in the class, get an easy A. Fuck as many of the dumb chicks as you can, use your extra spare time that you won't be spending studying on drinking yourself into oblivion.

You really shouldn't be in college if you need this explained to you.

>>7064934
Sounds like a pretty practical class, and one that gets into some good readings.

>all this while being a 300 lb fedora tipping nekcbeard

You should just off yourself tbh

>>7066851
