First, I get that it might be a little confusing when the word door is written on the seating chart (forget for the moment that there actually is a door in the spot indicated even if you interpret the seating chart correctly), but there was a picture of the DESK that is at the front of the room. There is a door on each side, but there is only one middle of the front of the classroom. Stop making our professors think that we're all that unable to handle simple tasks.
Second, I thought Klein was going to have a great positive impact on the way people answer in class. She's big on decisiveness and on answering with sentences that actually end in periods. Somehow though, people have managed to largely ignore the direction she is trying to take us in. How is it possible to go through an ENTIRE case answering ONLY in questions? Not only does it weaken the answer and make you look like you have almost no idea what you're talking about, it's annoying and frustrating for the rest of us (at least me). As much as I want to suffer through the torture that is the mutual Socratic method, I don't.
Third, I want to clarify that I'm not actually anti-Mash. I think we may have just gotten off on the wrong foot when she lied about notice on day one. A couple days of inoculation and she seems much more pleasant. Of particular note is that even though we do have Civ Pro on Friday, she only gave us 9 pages of reading for it. Tip o' the cap on that one.
