I’m not sure if any of you are history buffs like I am, but I’m really having fun in my West in Global Context I course. It’s an intro course which looks at world history to 1500, and it is taught by Brian Froese, our lone History prof here at CMU.
He was suggesting that we rename this course “The Quest for Metal”, saying that the discovery of better and better metals was crucial in the survival of civilization in the ancient days. I don’t know about you, but that’s certainly not the first thing the title makes me think about.
