Ohh there was this programming professor that I had this semester.
He puts his expectations way too high for his students. So he ended up giving us a massive project that he thought was easy. Ended up being a 50 - 75 hour project as it required material that are out of the scope of the course itself... hence external research was required.
Long story short, the project took up a lot of my time. I had to sacrifice alot of time from other papers. (hence my performance suffered greatly from other papers aswell). And I subsequently built up a lot of tension between me and my flatmates (because I wasnt home enough.. leaving at 8am to go to University and coming home at an average of 11:00pm doing the project)
After all this, he left the last two weeks of the course on a holiday or something. Which is when we all needed him the most. We had a test and a project due but he left us all to rot. Not that he was any good at teaching anyway. He would talk very VERY quickly and bombard us power point slides like there was no tomorrow.
Alot of people failed the project becuase he didnt take in to account that different text programmes in linux handles endlines. So while they would work on gedit for example, they wouldnt work in geany.
Thanks professor for single-handedly lowering my fucking gpa by nearly TWO fucking grade boundaries compared to my last three semesters.
Yay!!!
