@joey we were just discussing in an RPT-like meeting that the fact some students in our ethics classes give low ratings complaining that they don't need no stinkin' ethics is a good illustration of why an ethics class is necessary

@joey while I think that it's appropriate for classes to be challenging, I have heard from my advisor that he felt that MIT classes were needlessly hard and thus didn't provide the most learning possible---they passed the point of diminishing returns. On the other hand, you are not teaching MIT students. But I would not pride myself solely on my class being difficult.

@joey We have had a few students grumbling about how reading GenAI summaries of the teaching materials is not enough to pass the exams, because, shock horror, we expect students to actually read the details.
