My Education at Skidmore
These courses represent all the knowledge I have attained at Skidmore College. Theoretically. How much of this knowledge I have retained is another story all together. ;) Anyways, I just thought that this would be interesting to see, for people who do and do not attend Skidmore alike.
Now, you can also buy the books that I used in these courses. I have only linked to courses where you could purchase the complete set of books since I thought only being able to buy one or two wasn't very fair.
Enjoy and happy learning!
