And we have another semester under our belt. How fast the terms fly. Us metric folks are engaged in preparing our H & R Block scorecards or perhaps actually trying to finish up our personal tax returns. How are the scorecards going for everyone? Our group is doing fine. I'm just concerned about meeting his expectations. Not comfortable about how many measures we really need to define. Or how detailed we need to be about other aspects of the company, such as mission statements and recommendations.
I'm sure the boundaries course is working on their term paper. At least, this time around the briefs were due periodically, since I think during the last course, the majority of us were writing a dozen or more briefs plus our research paper the week before Christmas.
This semester has been a bit difficult for me, especially since I have two classes this semester. Two courses can be a challenge for the part-time student. But, I have had a lot of fun and enjoyed the elective. Electives should be fun, especially since we get to choose the course of interest. It might be neat if one semester the program took a break from the required courses and only offered elective choices. It would give us an opportunity to meet others who just recently started the program.
I would really like to sign-up for the e-business elective, but not sure if I can deal with two terms back to back of intense pressure. Have many others signed up for the elective?
It would be great if we had a listserv or even contact sheet for the entire OL group. It might be helpful to have a larger group with whom to share concerns or to brainstorm. (The group that began in January is down to seven participants.) It would be fun to if we could all get together one Saturday after classes for a "meet and greet".

I stand on the same side of the street when it comes to electives, they should be enjoyable while complimenting other courses. Personally I did sign up for the ebusiness elective in addition to our next course in spite of the workload and previous experiences. You might say its the goal driven inner me wanting to "move it along". Robreta :)
