[BC] Re: Engineering school lousy teachers

[Bruce Doerle]

The teacher may not be that lousy.  He may be doing exactly what the school expects of him and that would be to weed out those who do not have the ability to perform.  At least that is what I thought at the end of my freshman year.  It is funny how your grades improve hyperbolically  as the years progress through college.

Ron,

No argument there. However, the student must be willing to even _be_ 
motivated and that student must be willing to do the work. Many times, students are 
willing to do either.
