Gah!

I was just mosieing around DePaul's website, and decided to check Blackboard to see if my classes are up yet for the fall. One of them was. And now I wish I hadn't checked, because I *already* want to die, just looking at the syllabus. *bangs head against cinderblock wall*

*ehem* A short discription of the crap for this class. Keep in mind it is a religion class. Also remember it is a 200! level religion class...

20% of final grade comes from:
*perfect* attendance. Any unexcused absenses and you lose 1%
class discussion
a one-page paper written at the end of each class


20% of final grade:
Weekly 2-page blackboard posting


20% of final grade:
midterm *growls* This fucking pisses me off. Quarter classes should *NOT BE ALLOWED* to have midterms! That's so fucking stupid. It's only a month before the final! WTF?


20% of final grade:
8 page take-home final


20% of final grade:
8 page research paper due a week before the final. Complete with Outline. This is almost a given, the paper, but that outline shit can go to hell. I DON'T USE OUTLINES!!!



So I can see that this proffessor is absolutely fucking batshit crazy. Let's see...where's that nice little "Drop Class" button again?

No! The outline is due earlier than the paper (by a month). And no, you would *think* it's an LPC class because the professor seems crazy. Nope. All Barat. The teacher is Buttigan or something. And I can't find on the "NEW IMPROVED campus connection the place to add/drop classes. Grr.

I don't know if you're in the DePaul LJ community, but if you're not you should go to [livejournal.com profile] demonsrus and see what people have been saying about CampusConnect.

Yeah, it really freaking blows. I could've added/dropped already. But no! Because I have AOL and not a DSL, I haven't even been able to d/l the course catalog to look up course #'s. Grr. I hope the SGA does get the message through.
