So. Much. Stupid.
This guy is campaigning for his LEGITIMATE RIGHT to send text messages during class, over the protests of his "tyrannical" professors. There is tremendous wanking, scroll to any random point on the page and you will find some. Be warned, when you stare into the stupid, the stupid, entitled fuckwad stares into you.

The problem with that is that you have to ace the tests and the papers to get a good grade without a decent participation grade in my classes.

Traditionally, my classes (English) look something like this: 20% Participation, 20% Midterm, 20% First Paper, 20% Second Paper, 20% Final Exam. And I'm a tough grader on papers.

I'm a complete bitch (or a smug arrogant teacher, according to the Baleetion Fairy, above) because I determine what goes on the tests based on the class discussion. So if we read Poem A, but never talked about it in class? It's unlikely to be on the test.

Basically, people who don't come to class don't do well on exams, because the exams are designed around in-class discussion.
