YES!
HERLIHY MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET ME OUT OF GENRE STUDIES. This is seriously exciting. 'Cause the whole reason I'm in Genre Studies is because I need another half-credit of writing to graduate, but Herlihy thinks that he can convince The Administration to let me take Russian Studies (which I'm taking as an independent study right now, but it'd be so much more awesome to do it in a real class) instead, even though it's technically a social studies course. Because apparently they do a lot of writing in the class, or something. I don't really care about the technicalities, just as long as I can GET OUT OF GS. Anyway, if it goes through, maybe I'll replace Russian Studies IS with World History II IS... that'd be sweet.
I love Mr. Herlihy. I should- I bought $59 worth of Russian crafts from him today.
