[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really does depend.

My daughter has a class that she doesn't always attend.  It's late at night in a more secluded area of the campus and she doesn't have any friends in the class to walk with.  The professor has something called "prime days" where if they attend, they get a hint about a question that will be on the test or some bonus points to add to an assignment/test of their choice.  I guess all of the lecture notes are online plus the professor records the lectures and sends out the link to view them.

This is her second year in college and both semesters last year, with the exception of three courses, all of the others were taught by the professor's TA not the professor.  She didn't even see/meet one professor the entire time.

You could help future applicants by telling us what school this is. It won’t reveal your child but will clue other families in to what student there are likely to experience  there (ie, classes not taught by professors, night classes in deserted locations ). It would be appreciated! [/quote]
