1. Give them all A's!
Or better yet, fuck with their heads, and flunk them all! :P

2. *evil cackle*

I could use the time-honored approach of hucking them all down a staircase and grading them by how far they go...


:rofl:

4. Thank goodness, no!

I actually just have a page of it -- we split it up and each grade a page or two. My page isn't bad -- short answer and a graph.

Essays would be a drag! :hi:

8. College level or high school?
I plan on teaching when I retire from the Navy- that's why I'm asking.

13. Well, something in the IT field....
...since that's what I've been doing for the past 16 years. But, I'm looking at teaching high school because in addition to teaching, I would also like the opportunity to coach a sport- probably baseball or soccer.

15. I will be once I finish these last 4 classes for my degree...

...I started out strong, but as I get close, I find myself just "phoning it in". I did all my upper-level IFSM stuff first, so these classes are just the 100 and 200 level requirements. Where I was really, really excited about my classes on Disaster Recovery and Planning, and Cyberterrorism, I'm finding it increasingly difficult to get motivated for statistics and college algebra.

9. Use them to practice recycling, then
To the shredder, then the compost heap.

Good for the ecology.
