Course Evaluations of the Damned

• "This class was a religious experience for me... I had to take it all on faith."
• "Text makes a satisfying 'thud' when dropped on the floor."
• "The class is worthwhile because I need it for the degree."
• "Her blackboard technique puts Rembrandt to shame."
• "Textbook is confusing... Someone with a knowledge of English should proofread it."
• "Have you ever fell asleep in class and awoke in another? That's the way I felt all term."
• "In class I learn I can fudge answers and get away with it."
• "Keep lecturer or tenure board will be shot."
• "The recitation instructor would make a good parking lot attendant. Tries to tell you where to go, but you can never understand her."
• "Text is useless. I use it to kill roaches in my room."
• "In class the syllabus is more important than you are."
• "I am convinced that you can learn by osmosis by just sitting in her class."
• "Help! I've fallen asleep and I can't wake up!"
• "Problem sets are a decoy to lure you away from potential exam material."
• "Recitation was great. It was so confusing that I forgot who I was, where I was, and what I was doing -- it's a great stress reliever."
• "She is one of the best teachers I have had... She is well-organized, presents good lectures, and creates interest in the subject. I hope my comments don't hurt her chances of getting tenure."
• "I would sit in class and stare out the window at the squirrels. They've got a cool nest in the tree."
• "She teaches like Speedy Gonzalez on a caffeine high."
• "This course kept me out of trouble from 2-4:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays."
• "Most of us spent the 1st 3 weeks terrified of the class. Then solidarity kicked in."
• "Bogus number crunching. My HP is exhausted."
• "The absolute value of the TA was less than epsilon."
• "TA steadily improved throughout the course... I think she started drinking and it really loosened her up."
• "Information was presented like a ruptured fire hose -- spraying in all directions -- no way to stop it."
