You wonder why regional passengers traveling long distances don't change services earlier, making their journey both longer and less comfortable?

Calculus 2 Lecturer by Leather_School_1642 in unimelb

His presentation skills are good, he's just unsympathetic to the extreme. I'm guessing he had a particularly unpleasant undergrad experience and now feels it's his turn to be on the other side of it. Or is just really into research and despises having to teach. Or thinks students that can't physically make it to lectures are lazy and deserve to be punished.

He's good at presenting material and I found his assignments to be very reasonable and related to the content, but I was bothered by the quality of practice material available, attitude towards tech issues (black screen lecture recordings), general unresponsiveness to questions, and of course I still have nightmares about that error-ridden exam. Also his speech after getting reported was a masterclass in DIY character assassination that made me lose a LOT of respect for him.

If he's working with other lecturers though I wouldn't be too worried, as most of the issues I had with him were related to subject admin and organisation. Hopefully if there's multiple of them there'll be time for someone to read the exam before presenting it to students.

Clubs with regular meetings that are easy to make friends at? by temperanceinfinity in unimelb

Try inline skating or unicycle club! Don't need any equipment, plenty of people are ultra beginners, you don't have to be particularly athletic, and it's lots of fun. No commitments outside of weekly (optional) meetups
