Well hello everyone, I hope that you all are enjoying our first real snow day that we have had this year. I can’t believe how nice of weather we have had lately, usually its freezing cold with snow. My topic for this blog is going to be grading in the college system. When I say grading I mean the time it takes for our professors to grade stuff we turn in. I believe that if we the students are held responsible for studying for tests, or turning in homework on time, or writing papers, that we should have the right to have whatever we turned in back in a reasonable manner. I have classes that we turned stuff in during the first week of the semester and haven’t gotten back yet, which means that I don’t know if I’m currently passing or failing classes, which isn’t a good thing. I know that professors are really busy and teach many classes upwards toward five, but if they have such a heavy load they should not assign so many assignments, papers, or test that they will have to eventually grade. Not knowing where we stand in a class by a letter grade can be very discouraging, how can our school system expect so much out of the students when we don’t get anything we turn in back. So on less serious note, football is almost over which is very sad, I’m going to really miss a couple of our seniors. I can’t believe that I’m going to be a senior in football next year; gosh it feels like just yesterday that my parents were helping me move into the dorms before my first two-a-days. This season hasn’t gone at all like we planned it, but it has been a really fun ride and I would like to thank all of our seniors.
