1: A look into the fasinating world of different bodily tissues, and how they work/interact with each other.
2: The absolute worst class any biology-related major will ever take; the kind that is necessary for several disciplines, but supremely boring and detail-oriented to the point of soul-crushing, mind-numbing horror. This is the kind of class that smart people hate.
