Things that piss you off!

Offline?

On campus classes.

I've got two online and two offline.

First day and I already want to bitch slap both teachers for being dumbasses.

[megido-rev.M]

I never had online classes.

[Tanis]

Seriously?
They're pretty damn magical to me.

While the work load tends to be a lot more, it's worth it because you're (I'm) able to spend my time doing more important shit than listening to a boring lecture.

Most classes you can pass with ease if you've got the book and actually READ it.

[megido-rev.M]

Yeah.
I often skipped classes if they were simply boring.

[Tanis]

At my college you can't.

Ever class I've taken here has 'roll' of some kind, but I do sit in the back and tend to read a lot.

I was woken up last night after like 3-4 hrs of sleep by a fiddleback (brown recluse) crawling on my arm.

Spazzed right out. Yep...

[megido-rev.M]

Damn random spiders...

What the fuck? Who does this in post secondary? Is it just Canada that gives no fucks about you showing up to class?

Two words:
Federal. Aid.


The college gets more federal aid depending on factors such as overall GPA, students enrolled, percent of classes attended, etc.

My College has a similar policy.

That doesn't really explain it though.
At my school they don't track attendance if it wasn't worth some amount of grade (not often).

My College has a similar policy.

Maybe it's College and not University? Although Canada makes that distinction differently...

My Universities policy is "You're paying our tuition? Cool, keep paying it even if you stop showing up, we don't give a fuck."

Yeah and college (aka Cégep) is different in Quebec than in other provinces.

[megido-rev.M]

So it seems.

Money is a good motivator to keep track of students.
-Most teachers do give extra credit for not missing X number of days.

[megido-rev.M]

Not where I was at.

[Darth.Sid]

Not where i am now either...

[Tanis]

leg cramps.

I wish I got marks for just showing up. What is this hand holding shit?
