Poll of the Day > My professor insists that we use his site for our homework

(+) Yeah! (+)

But his website is hot trash. Every couple days it has some new issue and its caused me to waste valuable studying/homework time when I don't have much to spare. I feel like this should be against school policy

Inspect the site's element, and then complain as to how the JavaScript is badly written.

Yeah why would anyone complain about hours wasted because someone else is shitting the bed at their job? As a dude working full time and going to school, a few hours wasted is a huge deal and can set me back a couple days. This guy needs to pay someone that knows how to manage his trash website. Don't professors make decent money? Maybe his wife's coke habit is costing him too much or something

Beats professors who assign books they wrote, although it is one way to move your books.

it beats professors who assign a specific book that they wrote and it's just a really shitty pdf file on a disc that cost a couple hundred bucks

What if they assign a fictional book they wrote as an assignment?

Then you have the professors telling you to buy overpriced books for class you never use and when you try to sell them back to the school bookstore at the end of the year they offer you a tiny amount of money for them or say they are not using them again.

This I can attest to

I remember once a english class the teacher wanted us to buy this shakespear book because we would be reading it for an assignment and test for the class. she got mad when I didn't buy the book cause my grandmother actually owned a copy and let me borrow it. I stood my ground though and she had to allow it as the only difference was the book she was pushing had both the old english and modern enlgish versions in it, but her assignments had nothing to do with that fact.

only problem it caused is when she'd say turn to X page, i'd have to hunt as the pages where different in mine.

it was popular when I graduated but schools had yet to start implementing it.

though I will tell you taking a SOL, EOC or whatever your states version of the standardized test is much nicer on a computer, especially since you get your test scores back in like 15 minutes.
