I just thought it was amusing, I guess. Three hours of lectures a week, theoretically about marine mammals, but I would say... 80% of the course content is about ideology, and "saving the planet"...
This is core. Can't avoid it. But it is insane to me that the Head of School, the person who supervises most of my courses, is so ideologically compromised that she essentially runs (STEM) courses like this as her personal ideological crusade...
Mid-30s woman, here. Looks exactly like you would expect. And she calls herself "old", in class, because of course she does...
That doesn't exactly reflect well on the University, I would have thought.
But anyway, I'm just there to get through this thing, and get my piece of paper, but it's still... Disappointing, I guess, that this is the quality of education I am dealing with.
It would be ironic if said female teacher was of the land whale variety.
Also way back when I was at school I also got to get a lesson from the head of the school and that is when I realized those people are brain dead figure heads because no one with actual work wanted the job
Well she's just said that she's scrapped exams because they're "too hard" for her to design (see other comment), so you're not wrong, lol...
Un-fucking-believable. Like, there's inept, and then there's this, ha.
Re the land whale thing, she's more like... A super bitchy librarian.
Typical academic. Mousey. Glasses. Extremely impatient. Wears too tight-fitting clothing. Extremely condescending.
Yeah, it's... A lot.
I fucking hate modern "academia", eugh...
