      This happened to me recently in Calculus I last quarter. The syllabus said that there were 3 exams and a final "tentatively scheduled" for some days, and then the instructor gave us a fourth "pop exam" which preceded the final. Had no clue it would actually happen. Hopefully this isn't too common, and this particular instructor does tend to be disorganized.

    I had a teacher in my early years of circuitry analysis that was genuinely a good teacher and would do his best to explain what’s going on. The problem was he was so perfect at what he did he assumed everything was easy and sometimes wouldn’t understand why we didn’t get something. I’ve seen him use a calculator like once, he didn’t even use one for doing superposition from Kirchhoff. It’s not like he had most of the values memorized, he’d just make up new circuit’s totally on the fly and have them work perfectly. He retired recently and you could tell he had nearly 50 years of experience under his belt

    In my class on the first day before we had bought our textbooks, some student sent a link on the class Canvas page to a website where it was located for free, and saved us all hundreds of dollars. The people who already payed were able to get refunds from the bookstore. The professor then encouraged we all use that link. That's an outlier of an experience though for sure.

    • @quillmaurer6563

      I remember in my program students would share PDFs of textbooks, by junior year nobody was buying them, everyone knew you just had to ask around or be offered it. Passed around via E-mail or on memory sticks. I always thought it would have been a perfect model for the microbiology students to use as a simulation of disease spread, to try to find "patient zero." Probably most comparable for simulating STDs: "Who[s computer] did you stick your thing [USB stick] into to get this from, and who did you in turn give it to that way?" I was probably a bit of a super-spreader actually. I wasn't bothered by ethical concerns of "stealing," in fact I found pirating them to be morally preferable to feeding the parasite that is textbook publishers. A few professors, mostly in lower level classes, used the online access thing you had to pay a bunch for, but that subsided later in my program, I don't know if professors stopped using it in general or if higher-level courses didn't try. Professors probably figured out that this was a way to make students despise them before even seeing them the first time.

He ended up doing a very easy test so that everyone could get the grade so he was certainly a cool dude ..
    We ended up finding his personal page on the intenet, very weird since it was not linked to the university website, like every other professor's page, anyway we found out he was involved with the computation of prime numbers, trying to develop an algorithm better than the current ones to keep finding new prime numbers .. he would also casually talk about solving 3d and 4d sudokus with algorithms in the fastest way possible .. so a class about dynamic programming would quickly turn into advanced algorithmic theory applied to sudoku in 3 and 4 dimmensions and someone had to remind him that the class was completely lost and he had to get back on track ..

      So, here's the story: this teacher would give every student a 5/10 (essentially a D+ I believe) at most for their Short Story at the finals. His reasoning? Well, Willem Frederik Hermans -- legendary Dutch author, one of the "Big Three" of the post-War era -- was really bad at writing Short Stories, so he'd only be getting a 5/10 for one if it were being graded with school grades. A High School-student *_obviously_* can't be a better writer than the Great Willem Frederik Hermans, right? And that is why no High School student could ever score more than a 5/10 on their Short Stories as far as this mystery teacher was concerned.

      Had this guy as an Ochem lab professor once. Gave no rubric for lab reports, so I took the rubrics of the two college chem labs I had taken previously and made sure to include everything on them. He still came up with a million bullshit reasons to deduct points. Added those for the next report. New bullshit deductions. So on and so forth every week. The one time the TA gave me an A he went back and found 15 more points worth of deductions to add on before handing it back. And I couldn't go to office hours to ask about any of this because I had another class at the one time they were offered during the week, and the one week I managed to get out of that class and come ask for some guidance the motherfucker makes me wait forty five minutes for him to get off the phone and then affords me about five which he spends entirely on being a condescending fuckwad and making it clear that I can't get out of his sight fast enough.

You can’t keep the receipt, you can’t get it used, you can’t resell it later, and if you retake the course in a later semester, you’ll have to buy a new code. The textbook is horribly written with all the same info you could find online for free, so you’ll never use it to study, but you still need to buy it because the interactive exercises account for 10+% of your grade.

      Sadly it's not always their fault.
      I had a few fantastic teachers that always did this because they just weren't assigned enough time. For their classes, early was on time because they would start exactly on schedule (or earlier if possible) and we often ended late. And even then still we had to skip some things.
      The school was cutting funding to our department to dump it into the business department :(
      Sometimes teachers are just ruthless like that because they just don't have the time to spare, either later in the semester or in more senior classes. If they slowed everything down to the pace of the slowest people in class they wouldn't have enough time later on. Certain critical things have to be taught. If they don't then EVERYONE will struggle when they take a class where they're missing the prerequisite knowledge. And then it just snowballs.
      Also, none of the people who struggled earlier on in the program would have survived the classes in our final year, so it really doesn't matter to the teachers if those people get abandoned mid-way through.

I remember literally 1 of my engineering professors and 1 of my math teachers from undergrad as being good teachers who cared about every student-- both, of course, adjuncts. The tenured professors are infinitely worse at guiding student outcomes than the adjuncts, they do the minimum to turn their classes into their choice of failure factories or graduate mills and then repeat it year after year. The adjuncts competed with 250 other people for their chance to teach, that competition of course being based on theoretical and professional competence, not teaching ability.

      I find the biggest issue is that they give all these methods to solve things but for very specific types of problems. Then, in the exam, they give questions within the same topic but radically different examples you don't know how to apply what you learned to.
      It's akin to them giving you a hammer and showing how it can hit a few nails, but you've never seen a hammer before, so you end up only able to use it for hammering those specific nails. The way so much math is taught is super inflexible.

      That one is canonically a sabotage effort though. The chief engineer and primary system designer built in a flaw in the system that absolutely required that vent to be there. He then sabotaged all the engineering efforts that would have shown the risk of the defect. He was the chief engineer on a very fast paced program, and speaking from experience a person in that position could probably get away with that. By the time he was caught and revealed as a spy they were pretty much taking the weapon into battle and there wasn't any time for them to find his sabotage.

      Aight, those semi-colons are irritating to use for their one purpose as sentence breaks; connecting two somehow related sentences to each other can be just done with punctuation and capitalization instead...

    Thanks to my professors, I absolutely hate engineering and they killed all the joy of learning. Most regrettable 4 years of my life.

      Jordan Trakas well I mean if you get a square and fold in the corners effectively infinite times it makes a circle that has a perimeter with 4 and not pi but since pi has to be the circle perimeter (at least in this situation) and pi=3 that means 3=4
