I hate to ask, but what level is this class? Is it just a 1-200 level where they figure the majority of people will be blowing class off?

More to come after I find out (I also find that terrible!!)

Now that is crap. Is she a tenure track professor.... with a PhD? How long has this prof been there?

For a 300+ level class that is purely unacceptable.... I dont even know what to say regarding that. I would consider writing the administration over it. College is expensive, why waste it on A&E when you already have to pay for cable??

Any book written by me would deteriorate into cursing and jibberish before the end of the table of contents.

if you'd want better education, you'd try to get to a better college. otherwise, you should read a lot of books on your own to keep yourself in the upper echelon.

there was this ridiculous situation: physical science professor said that g (the freefall constant) equals to 9.8 m/s, and i said, it cannot be so, because m/s is speed and g means acceleration, which means, it's m/s^2. she said "well, which year edition is your textbook, cause mine is the latest!".

just pass the class, get a decent letter grade then proceed to next set of classes till you get a piece of paper saying you graduated and finally you can get a decent paying job that requires that piece of paper saying you graduated. thats whole point of school anyway imho..get a degree then get a job, no other point. schools waste of time..memorize random shit get a grade then proceed to next set of classes. i'm sure alot of you will disagree with me here, but i really don't give a fuck. were all in it to get a 9-5 job in the long run, its sad but true.

Except this is the best Natural Resources University in the country, and college in the country that offers my major and specialization.

But when your job requires you to know historical events... the 700+ that you paid for that class would be pointless. In your idea, why even goto school?
