I like reading some dry s*** when riding the bus, like economic analyses of developing countries. And then if people ask what I'm reading I just tell them it is not porn and they are no longer curious.

I do not like middle aged undergrads who would like to be best pals with professors. They should be taken out back to the 'splaining room.

I always hated the students who loved to hear themselves speak or wanted to ask a stupid question so they sounded smart. Not keeping in mind of course that there are 200 other people in the class who don't want to listen to their stupid s***.



This wasn't as bad as the students who would ask personal questions such as "Why did I get this wrong on a test?"



That's what office hours are for. So you don't waste my time being an idiiot.

I hate my Sociology professor...there's literally 20 minutes worth of material in that class but he always spends an hour and a half because he just repeats the same crap over and over. If people are too stupid to get it, then maybe they shouldn't be in the class.

And people who ask questions that were specifically answered in the book.....wasting my time.

That and people talking during lectures...STFU, I dont care about your "This Is Why I'm Hot" ringtone. I seriously listened to two ******* talk for 20 minutes about ringtones. I feel bad yelling at women so I just dealt with it, but if it was a guy, we'd have had problems.

Between being a political science major and going to law school, I spent 7 years dealing with those people. I hate them so much.

I was just ranting about this to my fiance before I left for work this morning.

Our whole education system is messed up. it should be demanding. And we shouldn't pass kids who don't deserve it. when I was in school, I can't tell you how many kids just didn't care, but they would get D's just to pass them through and graduate them out of the school.

I don't care if there is a 30 year old guy in the 8th grade, he should stay there until he can honestly pass all of the classes. I know it's impossible to actuall put into practice, but wouldn't it be oh so nice?

btw... I went to ITT. And for as much negative pub, and as many jokes as people crack about the school. I wouldn't trade it for anything. It's so much more focused on actually preparing students for the real world working environment. I was much more prepared to work and succeed than my friend who had a 4 year degree from Vanderbilt. Graduated 5 years ago and i'm the top guy in my department already. my former boss, who has now been promoted to the corporate office graduated from there, and as a practice, it's the first place that my company looks when we need to hire a new person. I might not make as much money the first few years after graduating, but I'm in a job that I love and one that I was well prepared to come in to.

ITT was actually started by International Telephone and Trade as a school to teach their employees how to do the jobs, which explains why it's such a workplace oriented school. I don't understand why an education like that isn't viewed as being as or more valuable than a school that wastes so much time and resources on classes that students will never benefit from.
