I weep for the students in Geog 106 on Wed. from 12-2. Do you know why? I am their T.A. This Wed. I get to teach them about the vertical structure of the atmosphere and I feel as if all meteorological knowledge has escaped me. I had a meeting with my head T.A. yesterday to go over the lab, point values, and other general information. He told me that I need to explain the math concepts as well as the science. He has had students that don't know how to cross multiply and divide to solve for a variable. I looked at next week's lab and it's all trigonometry. GGRREEAATT. Oh and the best part is I am in 701. The elevator doesn't even go up to the 7th floor and on the ceiling there is a tarp catching rainfall/snowfall that leaks through. I am dead serious. The tallest bloody room in the tallest bloody tower.... Will Shrek come save me and hilarity ensue? I doubt it.
