Cox has weed out classes - intermediate accounting.

Sounds like the thread is based on risks due to the lack of depth on the team this year, not on likelihood of something actually happening.

But at Cox you can major in General Business and never take Intermediate accounting. There are difficult classes in almost every department so that if you decide to major in that discipline, you'll sooner or later have a difficult class. The only classes that ever gave me fits were premed.

Intermediate accounting I is a requisite for Cox. Intermediate accounting II is a requisite for Accounting and Financial Consulting majors only.

I had a Econ professor who on the first day was dropping F-bombs as fast as he could. The guy was such a loser and major leaguer A-hole. I dropped the class because of him as did a majority of the students, I was told.

I am not terrified but know an issue with at least one specifically and personally. I am not telling ghost stories and am not terrified.

Great to know you were involved in that play. That play is at the top of my list of great SMU plays that I witnessed live. We went nuts in the stands.
