5. Strike! Strike! Support staff went on strike just as school was starting, this made for unhappy students, teachers and staff that are working. I had quite a few teachers tell me their opinion about this. No one was happy and we were counting down the days till it ended.
4. Students fresh out of high school is not the norm at college. Several of us have been out of school for years and alot of us are through the 2nd career program. We are all in the same age range and all are looking for something to do with our lives.
3. E-book?? What is this? Last time I went to school you purchased an expensive text book, a binder with paper and a pen. Now they have E-books, Netbooks, Laptops and Ipads. Not a pen or paper in sight!
2. Blackboard...is that like blackbeard?? Last time I went to school, if you wanted your mark you found your teachers room to see the grade list. If you needed to speak to the teacher, you did so after class or made an appointment. There was no email, powerpoint pages to print or getting your grades online.
1. And the most important thing I have had to learn the first week of school...... get to the city bus early to get a seat or even get on the bus! Because the bus goes on the highway, there is a limit to how many people they will take. If your not one of the lucky 53, you are waiting 30 minutes for the next bus. Stand as close to the curb as you can and push your way in...
