Contracting in More Ways Than One
Turns out our Contracts professor is actually fairly benign. The other class ended up with The Intimidator, who assigns hundreds of pages of reading each week, interrogates students without mercy in class, and regularly assures them that "even when you're right, you're wrong." Something about teaching his minions what it's like to be "real lawyers". More like "real obnoxious lawyers" if you ask me.
Though we do have a bit of a dilemna with our prof. The other classes have four 1-hour sessions a week; we have three that are supposed to be one hour 20 mins in length. But clearly no one told Professor Shupack, who's been dismissing us after an hour. So do we let the guy know that he's actually meant to be imparting his wisdom for an extra 20 mins each day? Or do we let it slide, enjoy the shorter class, and take the risk that in Week 13 he's suddenly going to realize his mistake and bombard us with work in the week before finals? Consensus thus far is overwhelmingly on the side of keeping mum, complete with threats of bodily harm to whomever 'fesses up to the prof.
