Valbonë Valley National Park, Albania: CC MIT ocw SOIL SCIENCE courses that might interest you, Scottish Country Dancing, Sailing, German Conversation in Google Hangouts, Albania, Poland, German and Russian World University and Schools, planned in their languages

Kent!

Nice to see and talk with you again at Scottish Country Dancing in Berkeley.

It's so great you're studying for your Ph.D. in soil science in Freiburg, after studying philosophy at UC Berkeley as an undergraduate some years ago. 

Here are some CC MIT OCW soil courses that might interest you -

Soil Behavior

https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/civil-and-environmental-engineering/1-322-soil-behavior-spring-2005/

Advanced Soil Mechanics

https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/civil-and-environmental-engineering/1-361-advanced-soil-mechanics-fall-2004/

While as wiki, you or anyone could create a new "Soils" wiki subject (planned in many languages), there isn't one new - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Subjects (before we move to a new wiki emerging from Wikidata). And we might also add these courses to an Engineering subject page or http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Geology or http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University_Agriculture_School or http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Earth,_Atmospheric,_and_Planetary_Sciences - let's see how this plays out.

Here too in the beginning SCD wiki page at WUaS - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Scottish_Country_Dancing. How to make all of these courses come flourishingly alive in new ways in an interesting question WUaS would like to focus on too. (How too to study enjoyment in learning inter-lingually?)

I didn't realize you sailed, let alone skippered while at Cal -

http://scores.collegesailing.org/f09/north-frosh-soph/A/ . (I've taught sailing before - in Lasers, Bullseyes and Turnabouts).

I'm finding Peter Bothe's GermanKlub - https://plus.google.com/+PeterBothe - interesting in Google Hangouts - if you might be interested. He lives in Bremen, and about every other Saturday at 10am PT, 7pm CET, is Willkommen in Deutschland, and on Thursdays at 11 am PT is German conversation for learning. I'll introduce you if you're interested, although your German is excellent.

See you at the Scottish Country Dance holiday party in Kensington if not before.

Best regards, Scott
