Yeah, I had a freshman year language tutor who knew NO Greek, and it was terrible ("I'm learning along with you!" No, NOBODY is learning here). You could choose your own schedule to a pretty big degree, since everyone was studying the same thing and the curriculum was fixed, and most people would try to game for the professors who knew the subject the best. (I got the actual composer Lawrence Cave, a dear friend of my mom's, for sophomore music tutorial, and that was amazing.)
