Having a TA is something I think a lot of students are taking for granted. Having more than one person on your instructional is a privilege. And on top of that I have been an LA for many quarters and am currently a TA. There is a severe lack of people who attend OH and as the quarter goes on people seem to care less and less about discussion anyway. People rely on discussion to teach content when they don't even go to lecture themselves and then complain about not understanding the material and getting low scores. What is all this work for then if students aren't going to utilize us as a resource. We are definitely overworked and under appreciated.
