The class invites speakers to come speak to SYS students share their experiences, make recruitment pitches. Show up every day or only miss one day and you get an A. At times the speakers can be boring but many are very interesting.

Great class, no work required, you just have to show up. The speakers are different every week and you get a lot of interesting insight into different applications of Systems Engineering.

50 minutes of juts sitting there. Some presentations are actually pretty good and it's a good way to meet recruiters.

Purely attendance based. You can miss 0-1 classes and get an A. Easy as that. Some of the speakers are actually interesting too.

Like everyone said, 100% attendance-based. Speakers can be interesting or boring or somewhere in between. Some of them will take a small group out to dinner afterward. Definitive definition of systems engineering still unknown.

Easiest A ever. All you have to do is sit and listen to speakers; sometimes they're interesting, sometimes they aren't. Just don't miss more than one class.
