Negative Positive
Title: Author Focus on Wrong Party
Review: Through out the entire book, Sacks finds fault only with the students, but what about the teachers? I grauated in May of this year, and I never experience students who didn't want to work for grades, but I did experience instructors who: 1) often didn't come to class 2)gave multiple choice exams (I even had one in a writing class!) 3)would cut class short so he could "meet my new tennis partner" 4)grade papers in class and on class time 5)socially chat with selected students in class and on class time about personal business that didn't relate to the class 6)didn't meet durning posted office hours 7)hadn't updated the sylabus in years.Complaining about these instructors is useless. They usually have tenure, and administration is unable to do anything.Now that the author has tenure, I wonder how many classes he misses.
Is the review positive or negative?
