Sooo as most of you know, I am in college, and well it is a public college...so that means Teaching Assistants or T.A's. Well now I will begin my arduous and totally unnescessary task of classifying T.A.'s. Someone once told me TA's could be classified like managers. There are the competent nice, incompetent nice, competent hateful and incompetent nice. Well I truly believe that things are deeper than this. You see TA's, no matter how meaningless they are to you, except when considering your grade, are people. Mindless smart butt kissing people, but people nonetheless. And sooo, I am going to explore some of my TA's on this blog, slowly so I have stuff to talk about all the time.
First off is my CSE 230 TA, he teaches or allow me to correct myself...pretends to teach C++. You see this TA is pure evil. His existence has been spewed from the very leftovers of the creation of evil itself. For my purposes, I will call him an imp . His evil tactics of poor instructing have been honed over countless ages. It is perhaps this man that taught General Custard war tactics. His machinations are infinite, but in a quarter he can destroy his students with only a fraction of them. I will enumerate on a few of his tools, only to give you a small glimpse of his true evilness, beware, if you continue you may suffer from some nightmares and such, just be warned.
-One, his handwriting is purposely atrocious, my eyes, aided by the plastic contacts of man, are so limited in the deciphering of the cryptic runes which he places on the chalk board. I have witnessed beautiful handwriting in form whenever he writes notes to himself. But when it seems when good handwriting is need most, when students need to comprehend material needed for their very survival in life, his handwriting will stab the eyes,
-Labs have always been on the list of things I would toss away from society into a bottomless pit, however this man has taken these evils to a new level. First off he has re-labeled them: projects. And the complexity of these project itself must violate numerous human rights laws. Yet these projects are laid upon us with only a week to complete them. Yet behold their true evil, the projects are only worth each! as much as one homework, and....and if we do not at least attempt them, we will fail! There are, mercifully only 3 of these projects however they each consistently lay low every student who is unfortunate enough to have taken this class.
-Lastly, our TA, Ralph I believe his name is, probably has an infinite ability in programming. However, whenever these abilities are needed most, when providing examples and instructions to his pupils, he falls completely short. There are, for example, sample programming problems provided for us students to solve, when we fail, the TA is supposed to show us the solution so we can study it for the final. However this TA, curse him, does not solve them. Instead he claims that he will e-mail us solutions soon, and presents us with another problem that forces us to forget about his prior attocities as we await a new one.
These are just a few of the tools used to rob us students of well deserved good grades. Next I will consider the foreign, specifically from a non-English speaking country, TA.
