Afternoon musings

[da]

I was told by a friend today that he had a dream I was in, and then he woke up and told me about it. And then he woke up. And he thought it was one level more, until we decided that he wasn't still asleep. ...If he is, he's certainly wasting his afternoon. Less work, more flying. And pie.

Is Peace and Conflict Studies an art or a science? According to the University, the program is in the Arts Faculty, but for me, they'd like it to be a science if I don't mind:

"[...]Because your previous degree is in Science you are placed in that post degree program. It is possible to complete the PACS Diploma program as a Science post degree student. [...]
If you wish to complete an Arts Degree with a PACS major then you will need to request a program change by completing the 'Plan Modification/Application for Internal Transfer Form'"

OK then. So, not only do I have a B.S. in Communications...

As long as you don't get a BMath. That would be weird.

When I was at Durham it was possible to graduate with either a BA (Hons) or a BSc (Hons) in Mathematics. Apart from some extremely arcane differences in the regulations concerning the granting of the degree there was no difference whatsoever between the two. For no special reason I had applied to the BA program and that's what I have. I think of my class three graduated with a BA and about 40 got a BSc.

Ow, ow, ow. A BS in Peace and Conflict Studies...

(Well, Sue's first had BS, then MS (M=more?), and soon to be Piled higher and Deeper... I'm entertained, which is a Good Thing to Be as a mathematician's wife.)
