It’s better drama than politics.

I just took my notebooks. At a university with quality professors, the textbooks are an adjunct to the lecture, not a substitution or a recitation. I mean, maybe for Calc if I had a lazy attack and didn’t do the assigned problems…but otherwise, never. Man was that off-topic! Gotta justify this post somehow….ipad == just_another_grownup_toy. That isn’t a bad thing, it just makes it irrelevant to my life.</p> Dude, you actually took your books to class? I just took my notebooks.
