[quote=Anonymous]DC is a sophomore in one of the DMV privates. Unable to enroll in a physics class for both fall and spring semesters, he is taking the course at UDC (part of the Consortium of Universities). Yesterday was the first lesson. He came home excited saying that finally he has a professor who is actually teaching instead of just assigning work. He also said that the lab portion was great because all students were helping each other and that the teacher was accessible during the experiment. This morning he went and sat at a biochemistry and a psychology class. He texted me (I am at work) saying that all the professors are really good and that he wants to transfer to UDC for next year.

He has a very sweet deal at his current university (sports scholarship) but has been consistently unhappy with the quality of the teaching saying that it's like going to an online college because the professors lecture the entire time, assign work and tell students to go see a tutor when they need help. DC has been doing alright so far (3.54 GPA) so it's not a grade issue.

Should I intervene? He is in a premed track.
