>>Best and Worst Comments Taken from the
>>MIT Course Evaluation Guide
>>
>>1. "Text is useless. I use it to kill roaches in my room."
>>
>>2. "He teaches like Speedy Gonzalez on a caffeine high."
>>
>>3. "In class, the syllabus is more important than you are."
>>
>>4. "Help! I've fallen asleep and I can't wake up!"
>>
>>5. "Text makes a satisfying 'thud' when dropped on the floor."
>>
>>6. "The class is worthwhile because I need it for the degree."
>>
>>7. "His blackboard technique puts Rembrandt to shame."
>>
>>8. "Textbook is confusing ... someone with a knowledge of English
>>should proofread it."
>>
>>9. "Have you ever fallen asleep in class and awoke in another? That's
>>the way I felt all term."
>>
>>10. "This class was a religious experience for me ... I had to take it
>>all on faith."
>>
>>11. "The recitation instructor would make a good parking lot
>>attendant. Tries to tell you where to go, but you can never understand
>>him."
>>
>>12. "Problems sets are a decoy to lure you away from potential exam 
>>material."
>>
>>13. "Recitation was great. It was so confusing that I forgot who I
>>was, where I was, and what I was doing -- it's a great stress
>>reliever."
>>
>>14. "He is one of the best teachers I have had... . He is
>>well-organized, presents good lectures, and creates interest in the
>>subject. I hope my comments don't hurt his chances of getting tenure."
>>
>>15. "I would sit in class and stare out the window at the squirrels.
>>They've got a cool nest in the tree."
>>
>>16. "The absolute value of the TA was less than epsilon."
>>
>>17. "TA steadily improved throughout the course... . I think he
>>started drinking and it really loosened him up."
>>
>>18. "Information was presented like a ruptured fire hoseÑspraying in
>>all directions -- no way to stop it."
>>
>>19. "I never bought the text. My $60 was better spent on the Led
>>Zeppelin tapes that I used while doing the problem sets."
>>
>>20. "What's the quality of the text? 'Text is printed on high-quality 
>>paper.'"
>>
>>21. "The course was very thorough. What wasn't covered in class was
>>covered on the final exam."
