I figured since I am currently sitting in the Math Emporium waiting for my ride to finish their quiz I should blog about the place! In all honesty I really don't hate the math emporium as much as some other people. Don't get me wrong i certainly don't like it here but hey, there are far worse places to be. The only thing I don't like is that it is SO FAR AWAY. I mean, I get that it is easier for the University to have a place for tests and stuff but COME ON. You either have to take a bus, catch a ride, or walk. And I mean, who wants to walk that distance in the Blacksburg winter weather. If they could just relocate it or something it wouldn't be so bad.
Another thing is the classes that are all online for math are so dumb. I really hate having to either listen to the teacher just rant for 30 minutes or having to just teach myself the material. Sure, we're in college now and should start becoming more independent but they have the teachers! Instead of recording themselves talking like the lady did for Linear Algebra she could stand in front of us and lecture so we could ask questions. Now, some of y'all might say "well, that's what the tutor room is for!" well that tutor room is ALL the way at the Empo! BAH! It's just really inconvenient sometimes is all I'm saying.
How do you feel about the Empo? Hate it? Love it?(if that's possible)
Leave a comment and tell me how you feel!

love the empo, hate the classes i have to take there though.
ReplyDeleteI guess i agree with you. I definitely don't hate it but I agree about the online classes. I prefer to be infront of my teacher, espcially for math. Not always something you can "teach" yourself. and not only is the tutor room all the way @ the empo but its often FULL!
