I’m looking forward to testing my stubborn curmudgeonliness on these innocent kids, for sure.

You will learn, young one, that failing a student at Berkeley is hard to do. Particularly in the case of not attending section or lab. Generally, the in-major classes are well-behaved; it’s the non-major students who are only trying to fill a requirement who have a frustrating feeling of entitlement. “What does not showing up have to do with not getting an A?”

Student desertion = they all fail = easy money… or am I missing something here?

That 10 past the hour still gets me, and I’ve been here for many many years.
Of course, if you’re the TA, er, GSI, and you arrive more than 5 minutes late for section/lab, your students will be long gone.

This was from a pro-anal-sex, pro-communist vantage, of course.

“anal sex leads to communism” — wow, haven’t heard *that* one in a few decades…

I’m in Oscar Wilde, which certainly has its own crop of nostalgic alumni as well. Hoorah for co-ops!

Which co-op are you in? I spent three years in Ridge House (1986-89)… I miss it still…
