So I have to rant here about UNM, for just a moment, So far I have had 2 semesters in a row (last spring and this summer) where I have registered for a class, with a TBD teacher. We found out the monday of the first week of class over spring, and found out a week early (I believe) that our summer class had changed times. If all I was doing was going to school, this probably wouldn't be a big deal, but like many others in the Engineering Program we have jobs, and finding out the day of a class that the time has changed (to earlier or later). is a HUGE hassle for people.
I just wish UNM seemed to understand it, I went to CNM for 3 years roughly, and don't recall this happening EVER, and I don't understand how a University can't plan classes that are reoccuring for a DEGREE program on a consistant basis. it just doesn't make sense....sorry for the rant but I had to put it out there.
This is my "theoretical" schedule, but if they change the two classes I have at the end of my tuesday and thursday, and monday wednesday courses I'll be hosed....standby we'll see what happens monday.
UPDATE: Well class has begun, and I'm honestly surprised. The classes times have not changed, I'm a little disappointed that the money being paid for a class to be taught by a instructor is being taught by a PHD student, BUT he seem like a good guy, so hopefully I'll get an opportunity to learn a bit off him.

Class Search
I have been mulling over the idea of trying to improve the class search process where I go to school, I currently work a full time job, and am trying to go to school. Needless to say trying to schedule classes and work hours can be a bit of a bear.
Along came the idea of "class search", I'll give you a bit of a hint of what it's got, and as I continue working on it I'll bring it up a little more.
Right now my goal is to have a particular user login, and once they're logged in it will display classes that are relevant to their particular declared degree. The basic site I've currently made is an Comp Engineering Major related list of classes.
There are alot of "enhancements" that I am working on and have ideas for quite a few more.
You can check out the "mobile" version (updated most recently) here
If anyone knows any good "how to's" on using Google Calendar on their site, let me know!
Hope you like it.
