May 6, 2023 at 18:16 | comment | added | Wojowu | @ConnorW I'm not arguing whether it's reasonable or not, but your comment seems to include such a course is a norm, which it definitely isn't. In my first year undergrad I had some basic overview of set theory, up to things like axiom of choice and Zorn's lemma, but no course I took, undergrad or grad, covered ultrafilters or stationary sets. I don't mean to frown upon the remark, but I do think it is just factually incorrect. | |
May 6, 2023 at 5:55 | comment | added | anomaly | @ConnorW: I have to admit that I'm also one of those people who didn't take any undergrad set theory classes, but I did run into ultrafilters as an undergrad in the topological context. | |
May 6, 2023 at 5:17 | comment | added | Connor W | @Wojowu I don't think it's unreasonable. I also hope the implication isn't that the inclusion of this remark in my answer is frowned upon. To be fair, I can count on two hands the number of people I know who even took an undergrad set theory class, and almost all of them did both of these things. | |

May 6, 2023 at 5:03 | comment | added | Wojowu | I wish I lived in a place with a first-semester undergraduate set theory course which covers stationary sets and ultrafilters! | |
