Arabic
During my time at Cornell, I started taking Arabic courses for fun. This is the list:
- ARAB 4200: Modern Arabic Literature
- ARAB 3687: Kalila Wa Dimna for Students of Arabic
- ARAB 3202: Advanced Arabic II
- ARAB 4203: Current Events in Arabic Media
- ARAB 3210: Arabic Grammar and Writing
I wrote 28 Arabic essays on a wide range of topics that I have published in a book titled Bound by Words.
