Without fail the class would end a few minutes early. As soon as I started making the sounds it was like dominoes. Ten minutes left in the lecture but everyone has all their stuff put away and are putting their coats on. I think of this often. May this knowledge set you free a few minutes early.

    It’s college. You’re literally paying to be there so you’re short changing yourself and your classmates.

    If want to leave early, get the fuck up and go. You’re an adult. Act like it.

      College adjunct instructor checking in:

      Your teacher is human. They are there because they want to help you get the information that you need to be a successful person as an individual and in society. They see the class packing up early and it really stings because they care about you and their subject’s impact on the world.

      If you don’t want to be an educated member of a democracy, just save yourself the student loan bills and don’t come in the first place.

      I mean yeah but it’s awkward as shit and might make your professor hate you, and no good can come out of that.
