[http://catalog.unt.edu/preview_course_nopop.php?catoid=20&coid=75346 General Chemistry I.] If you place into general chemistry, you will take a chemistry section with UNT students. The majority consensus is that general chemistry has a lot more busy work and can be harder than honors chemistry (cough cough ALEKS). Most TAMS students take Dr. McAfee for General Chemistry I. However, some other professors first semester students take include Zhang, Kinyanjui, and Petros.

Taught by Dr. David Mark Keathly, who does not know how to wear a mask. Notorious for long, tedious projects. Similar to BIOL 1711, the quality and tendency of grading of the TA substantially influence your performance and experience.

[http://catalog.unt.edu/preview_course_nopop.php?catoid=23&coid=95160 Game Narratives as Literature.] The course is taught by Dr. Marshall Needleman Armintor. The purpose of this course is to examine the concept of narrative in video games—from all eras and genres—to show how the familiar questions of structure, cultural critique, and (especially) intertextuality commonly applied to literature and film can be extended to games and the gaming ethos. Yes, this is for you, you gamer.
