I flat out started dropping classes when I showed up and lecture was regurgitating the assigned reading.

I understand some students are lazy. But that's what an F is for. Even in undergrad, I valued my time and tuition dollars more than that.

As my father told a student who complained about a D in his course: "No, I didn't give you a D. You earned a D. I would have given you an F."

(Went to GT and had family who taught undergrad and grad, so might have different perspective on expectations)

Was this a problem more frequently in some departments than others? For that matter, were they real profs or TAs?
