"Have you ever fallen asleep in one class and awakened in another? That's the way I felt all term." "In class I learned I can fudge answers and get away with it." "Keep lecturer or tenure board will be shot." "The recitation instructor would make a good parking lot attendant. Tries to tell you where to go, but you can never understand him." "Text is useful. I can use it to kill roaches in my room." "In class the syllabus is more important than you are." "I am convinced that you can learn by osmosis just by sitting in his class." "Help! I've fallen asleep and I can't wake up!" "Problem sets are a decoy to lure you away from potential exam material." "It was so confusing that I forgot who I was, where I was, and what I was doing-it's a great stress reliever." "He teaches like Speedy Gonzales on a caffeine high." "This course kept me out of trouble from 2:00-4:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays." "Most of us spent the first three weeks terrified of the class. Then solidarity kicked in." "Information was presented like a ruptured fire hose: spraying in all directions, no way to stop it." |
