Some epic college class rule
So today is my second day of second semester as a sophomore in college. One of my classes that I am taking is economic geography, an intro course. This is more of an elective than anything else and was a last minute selection.
Anyway, the first day for this class was today and we were given an intro, syllabus crap, and all that jazz.
Cutting to the chase . . .
participation is 10% of our grade. If you are caught texting/using your phone in class even once, you automatically lose 10% of your final grade. This means that the highest grade you can receive from that point on is a 90%.
rofl. I think this is awesome, cuz I also hate it when I see people texting in class. In my mind i'm screaming "why the -blam!- are you here if ur not paying attention?! GTFO!"
This goes for people on their laptops and using facebook and -blam!-

I took last semester a critical thinking class of about 300 students. The instructor was mildly insane when it came to enforcing rules. We could not use any technology in class, including phones or laptops. If we got caught using anything, we failed the class. We all thought it was a bluff and one guy got caught a good 3 weeks into the semester using his phone. He made the student leave and he failed the course. It was hilarious and sad at the same time.
