I had the worst class today, ever.
The teacher was 30 mins late. So somewhen went to his office, to see if he came in today. Apparently he was just in there chillin, and when the kid was like "are you coming to class?" he snapped "yes, stop bothering me, ill be there"
so he finally comes down, and doesnt even apologize for being late.
Then he starts teaching us about the circle of fifths... which you learn your FIRST semester, if you hadnt already learned it in highschool.
And he had the most monotone voice... I feel asleep. My first class, and I fall asleep.
Well, I was like, fuck this... so I went to the registrar, and switched to a different teacher.
But unfortunately the only class that was open was monday mornings at 9-11.
Which sucks, because then I have class from 11-1, and 1-2.
So I have a nice 5 hour morning block on mondays to look forward to.
But I think its better then having this cock as a teacher.
Im seriously considering writing a letter to the chair, because this is just outrageous. People like that shouldnt be teachers.
Bah
sorry... just needed to vent

I can't remember a time that I complained because a teacher didn't turn up, it was normally the other way round.
You should have gone up to his office and chilled with him over a spliff or something...talk it all out.

I LOVE when teachers don't show. We made up an unwritten rule, that if a teacher is 5 minutes late, everybody can leave and do whatever . I used to HATE it when teachers were 4 minutes late and JUST made it before we were ''allowed'' to leave.

its your money, you dont have to show up if you dont want to, and leave if you want to, the teacher will show up whenever they do, and you will miss out on that "valuable life-long information" that will make you a better person....
errrrrrrrrr something.

Yeah that does suck. When i was in artschool there were also a couple of teachers who would always come in late (sometimes even like an hour too late!). No apologies or nothing. And then they would just make the lessons last longer. Go on until six o'clock or later.
God i hated that! Just show up on time and spend 10 minutes on each student... then everything would have been fine. Now i usually had to sit around until much too late, and because my surname starts with an R (near the end of the alphabet) i was always one on of the last ones who's work they'd look at... grrr.
Usually they were all wonderful people though, not like zeus' teacher as he described. They were all really great and helpful... they just couldn't properly use a clock :-p

my opinion you start school yr learning goes abckwards, the teachers have to teach by a standard that is ditacted to them and its a load of crap, i found i unlearned the things i knew and was taught a fucked up version of shit that was allready in my head, i could read and wite before i started school and the first day was something stupid like learn how to write your name or some shit.
my brother put it best on his first day at school he told the eatcher what she was teaching was obsolete and that he wanted to use the computers. She asked him if he knew what obsolete meant and he said of course and if you don't you shouldn't be teaching.
I hated school. still do. i don't trust the syllabus.

give the guy another chance.
he made a mistake, who knows, he could've heard something really bad, had something happen.
you don't know.
if he did this structurally, I could see the point of complaining.

hahaha thats sooo true.
If a prof is 10 minutes late your leave, if he/she has a doctrine you wait 15 minutes.

blah, attitudes like that annoy me to no end... "I'm so cool cause I want to eliminate an organized education system so we can all be big dumb stupid couch potatoes!!"
come on... the education system ain't perfect, but what kind of system, that has to cater to a wide range of people, is? We need some kind of system so every gets a chance to learn, and so everyone does learn... high school is just the basics... you get a sampling of math, science, english and literature, history, etc... and it's good for people... people need math, and english, and science... University is the big thing... it's where you choose a field, and study in that field based on how you want... you're not forced into anything...
I know a lot of people hate the idea of an organized education system, and prefer the idea of learning by yourself... a friend of mine did that actually... he dropepd out of high school, and learned on his own... but really, at those ages in our lives, where we are in high school, most people aren't mature enough, or have enough interest in learning to do that... God knows I didn't... si yeah, while it ain't perfect, the education system is still a good thing... we need to learn!
