At the same time, I’ve been noticing lately that we’re tackling lots of design projects at much lower levels with respect to budgets and pro- ject scope.

Generally, these courses focus on significant works in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences. These courses are relatively small (22 students) and they emphasize class discussion and thoughtful writing assignments. Gallatin students are required to complete 16 units in interdisciplinary seminars. 38 ADVANCED WRITING COURSES In a workshop format with no more than 15 students, the advanced writing courses engage students in a wide variety of writing exercises and offer an opportunity to share work with fellow students and a practicing professional writer/teacher. Some of the courses focus on particular forms of writing— fiction, poetry, comedy, the journal, the personal narrative, the critical essay—while others encompass several forms and focus instead on a particular theme, such as writing about politics, writing about the arts, and writing about one’s ancestry.

    Generated by ABC Amber LIT Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html Jack McKinney - Robotech 05 - Force Of Arms Copyright 1987 by Jack McKinney PART I: SHOWDOWN PROLOGUE In the 1990s, a global civil war swept across the planet Earth; few wanted this war, but no one seemed to be able to avert it. It absorbed all the smaller disparate wars, rebellions, and terrorist struggles in the same way a huge storm vacuums up all the lesser weather systems around it. The War was fought with conventional weapons for the most part, but by 1999 it was clear that its escalation pointed directly to an all-out nuclear exchange-planetary obliteration. There seemed to be nothing any sane person could do about it. By then, the War had a life of its own. As the human race prepared to die-for everyone knew that the final phase of the War would surely exterminate all life on Earth, the fragile lunar and Martian research colonies, and the various orbital constructs-something like a malign miracle happened. A damaged starship-a super dimensional fortress created by the dying alien mastermind, Zor-appeared in Earth's skies. It crashed on a tiny Pacific island called Macross. Its descent wreaked more havoc than any war: there was tremendous damage and loss of life and numerous natural disasters. The human race was compelled to pause and take stock of itself. Zor had served the evil Robotech Masters, but he had resolved to serve them no more and had hidden his ultimate secrets concerning Protoculture-the most powerful force in the universe-in the fortress.
