Started my first class on Wednesday.  I’m not in the PhD program yet, but I think there is a good chance I’ll get in.  I will mostly be in classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, which means I work from home in the morning.  As far as the class goes, so far so good, the class is an “Introduction to plasma physics”.  It’s a senior level class, so it’s not intended for graduate students, but it looks like a perfect class to start my plasma physics career in at the UW.  Hopefully next quarter I will be taking a graduate CFD class, which is when the real work starts.
