judging from the results of the first 2 quizzes and the exam, i seem to have ended up with a rather lousy bunch of students. and no, i'm not blaming myself, because it's so beyond the days where i would do that, and i know all about how there is after all an element of selection (the 9 a.m. section fills up last, thus the people who are most disorganized tend to end up in it.)
