Dropping Eaves

I was walking back from my second class (Mechanical Responses of Engineering Materials) which takes place in a building called Earth and Engineering Sciences, or EES for short, when I overheard a wonderful conversation. Two guys who had had class at the same time as me were having a conversation about what classes they will be scheduling for next semester. They were obviously both juniors because they were talking about Capstone and taking engineering electives. One of them was anxious about finding another class to take in the spring semester, because if he only scheduled the classes he's required to take, he would have 10.5 credits, which would make him a part-time student. He told his friend he was thinking about taking 2 GHAs, which are Penn State's gym classes, because they're usually 1.5 credits each. His friend told him to just take fly fishing because it's a 3 credit GHA and "you get to fish for credit, dude!" But then the main guy said he was thinking about taking archery. He had "done archery in boy scouts when [he] was five, but [he] had no hand-eye coordination back then. Just think bad-ass [he] would be now. [He'd] be like f***ing Legolas!" Yes, this is a direct quote. Yes, I do love nerd boys.
