Day 2 of IAP at MIT. The class, 3.53 - Electrochemical Processing of Materials, has so far exceeded my expectations. Prof. Sadoway has been very engaging at class. This is a very intensive graduate (H-level) class as we try to squeeze 9 units of coursework that is typically done in 14 weeks into 2 weeks. For some reason, I have been treating this course very seriously. I have been doing all the reading before class, going through the problem sets, and reviewing my basic chemistry. I am actually learning something from this class.

I have also been interacting with the new SDM 06's lately as I have spending the last few nights at the LFM-SDM office to study for 3.53. They look like a spirited bunch. Not surprisingly, there is a high level of collaboration among the teams on the DC1 project. Today, I got bombarded by questions on research assistantship, electives, recruitment, and thesis. I enjoyed answering their questions as it shows that I have something positive to contribute to ease their transition to MIT. Enough blogging for the day, time to hit the sack.
