Classes

My first class was on Tuesday…or I think its my class. The registration here is very different from at Miami. There is limited online registration, but for the most part you just show up to the classes you want to take and later in the week submit and Add/Drop form. CUHK has three Add/Drop periods to get registered for class, each about a week long. There is also a different system for business classes as there are for regular classes so its one big guessing game. The class times are also different. It is all at once, so this class (Global Enterprise Management) was a little over 2 and half hours long. As the week went on I realized that class in CUHK are very different from home. There is little interaction with students during lectures and attendance is not all that important. There are text books but they are not used like they are back in the states. So far none of my classes really have a formal text book and most readings are bits and pieces that can be found in the library. The assumption is that you go to the library to find your readings and make photo copies if you want.
