Your Asses Are Very Collegey College Rules

In CWS, students will develop their reading, writing, and analytical skills. CWS will introduce students to the diverse modes of thought and communication that characterize the college experience. Individual conferences, peer reading, revision of writing and portfolio assessment are some of the essential elements in this process-oriented approach to college work. Note: This course does not satisfy a distribution requirement.




Your Asses Are Very Collegey College Rules



In the late 60s there were various well-publicized cases of students taking over entire campuses, disrupting classes, etc. with demands of, well, social justice, and plenty of appeasement coming from the administration. Using your logic, they should have shut down e.g. Berkeley right then, since it definitely failed; presumably for the last 50 years there has been nothing good coming out of it.


I am going to bite my tongue (or fingers, as it is) on some sarcasm and simply say that I doubt ISIS and the like (for even very broad definitions of the like) care very much for your estimation of the quality of their islamo-philia.It seems they believe in a higher authority than #trendingtweet or #hastagdiplomacy.


I asked about team interactions: they cross-train and rotate assignments to build skills, ensure coverage, and to keep things interesting. The work supports several government contracts, so I asked how they manage expectations. They were very clear: you support the customer, but you work for the Company, you answer to the Company, and the Company will handle issues with the customer on your behalf. (This concept is NOT understood in my soon-to-be-gone position.)


I wear colored jeans at my job, but we are on the very casual end of business casual. I would avoid doing it for a couple weeks until you have a chance to observe your coworkers and how they dress; that will tell you where on the spectrum of business casual they fall.


I think it can be extra difficult to be a good teacher when you are naturally gifted in your subject matter. Math teachers tend to be really good at math. It comes easily to them, the concepts make perfect sense, and with a little hard work and practice everyone should be able to learn the same way they did. I think this is also true for music teachers and phys ed teachers (and other subjects, of course, but math, music, and athletics seem to be the best examples). Some teachers are excellent and realize what worked for them might not work for their students, or that the way one student learns is not how the person next to them learns. But when something comes easily to you, it can be really hard to understand why someone else struggles.


1. I hate researching and writing large papers, so English went out the window.2. When I got to college, there were many women math majors to encourage me.3. Even though I was an econ major, I had to take calculus courses. I did better than I had thought I would on those first calc courses. Also, because of that, my math major friends assumed I was also a math major, and would tell me to take this or that math course. I would agree, because why not? Peer pressure ftw.4. Because I struggled early on with working memory, I developed an early habit of writing every single step down. This is absolutely necessary when you get into the more complex stuff, so I gained a serious advantage over those who had sailed by by just doing it in their head. It also helped me get into programming later on.


I was also just really good at language arts, so in comparison, being just ok at math was being bad at it in comparison. I do think, in general, math is not taught very well unless youre the type of person who naturally gets it, and its not taught in a way that is very applicable to most people.


I loved math as a kid. In fact, people often think that I am good at math because I can do a lot of it in my head. From a standardized testing perspective, I am quite good. However, I failed geometry in high school and had a very difficult time with calculus and statistics in college.


It sounds like what your employees are really saying is that your worker lacks initiative. They might not be lazy, they just might not mesh with the other employees. I have been through this more than once with my group, where two or more people will divide up the work amongst themselves and deliberately cut out the other person, then slag them for being lazy.One way around this is for the manager to ask everyone at the morning meeting their plans for the day, and if they want help. 2ff7e9595c
