This has been a boring first round.

But it has had an impressive number of botched calls and blown ninth-inning leads.

Let me write out a formal proof for you.

But after 70 minutes of subdued plinking piano, hushed choruses, some banjos, atmospherics that aren’t quite as beatific as they aspire to be, it gets a little much. When the best thing you’ve got going are your song titles, that’s a problem.

Hello this is **** ******* a student of your eco **** class i am sending you a email in regards of my grade in your class. My grade on aplia is very low and its nobody fault but mine . When i do the work that is required to do excel in it and even in class i answer questions and get them right. My problem is that i was not doing the assigned work on time or not doing t at all. I understand everything thats going on in the class i just want t know is there anyway i can bring my aplia grade up to at least have a passing grade at the end of the course. I am willing to do anything, but if there is no way to change this i understand. i was thinking i could set up a appointment to sit down and talk to you about this.Please email me back if you have time to and thanks.

at least the student is taking responsibility.

Or the student is just lazy.

and i take attendance. it’s only a 6-week class, so i kinda have to. but i do give full credit for just turning in a rough draft. i wouldnt do it normally, but i didnt write course.

by Charlie Scrabbles on Oct 12, 2009 11:02 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I would take attendance

because the students that don’t show up end up failing, but there are 60 in the class so it’s pretty infeasible.

Dropping grades just means I don’t have to hear 90% of the whining about why they missed the exam/didn’t turn in the HW (plus they can recover from a crappy midterm grade). The remaining portion is still pretty annoying, though.

Let me write out a formal proof for you.

by Gray on Oct 12, 2009 11:06 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I don't mind 60 too much...

it’s basically the upper end of where I can actually get them to work on things in pairs or small groups and present to the class.

I haven’t bothered to learn any of their names this semester, though.

if i were teaching a college course

i would take attendance if it were feasible, so when a student is bitching about their grade I can say well you showed up to class 37% of the time.

Some students are a freak like my fiance, she didn’t have a grade lower than an A- or a B+ (I can’t remember which), and she usually skipped at least 3 classes a week, some classes she wouldn’t show up for weeks at a time.

Christ on an iceberg

Down to the wire for the Rocks
I just don’t like the Phils…even though they’ve got Hammels, Howard and Utley…Jayson Werth can blow me.

Good Time Charlie wears his pajamas to Gray's Tuesday morning Econ lecture.

Hard Working Eddie presses all his slacks for the week on Sunday afternoons.

that really ammused me

i think it is because of your screen name.

i mean sometimes Walt is like a prison shower, you know it is gonna happen, but it isn’t a good thing.

thats your pic?

It’s great! looks like a 70s existentialist filmmaker. If you tied the tie, it would ruin that effect I think

It's not really me...

But Madville is convinced I look like Elliott Gould.

no wonder I mistook you for a 70s actor!

lol, I should have noticed. Well if you look similar enough you can still steal the style!

Well you easily play him when his film biography is made.

i can't tie a tie either

i think at least one of my roommates can, hopefully, if the need comes up…

I couldn’t tie my shoes until i was 12…

Gray does look so Professorial

But, Gray fuck those kids. Bunch of self absorbed douche bags who really only care about getting a decent passing grade, drinking a lot, partying a lot, fucking each other’s GFs/BFs and what kind of salary they’re going get cause they graduated from college. Fuck ’em now, so they get used to it.

i agree

last year i was taking an intro-poli sci class, me, another graduating senior (they only offer one section a quarter and do to scheduling conflicts I could not take it until my senior year), and the rest of the class was undergraduates. Before class when i was talking to my fellow senior (who is now also in grad school working on an MA in history) about history and politics, everyone around me was talking about how drunk they got or what party they went to or want to go to.

I went to parties as an undergrad, and I drank as an undergrad, but I was there to be a student first. It seemed that so many of my class mates were their simply to party, and they had to take classes as a part of that deal. In some ways undergraduates are like high school students who don’t have a curfew and don’t live with their parents…

Hi kids

Sorry I missed this, but I just had to sleep. Big day of manual labor, job interview, and fishing today.

Also, look out Scrabbles. Looks like Gray is encroaching on your “Dreamiest RR” schtick.

Sig lines are for suckas.

Dreamiest RR?

is therephotographic evidence to back up this claim? ;)

by Red_Poodle on Oct 13, 2009 2:14 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

in my mind's eye

Definitely a good argument.
