When I was at U of Mi in Ann Arbor, there was a small sanwich joint called Drakes. The old man who ran it was adamant about people actually ordering something when they sat down. An uproar was caused when he threw two very dykish females out. They were sitting at a table with drinks only and he told them they need to order food or leave. His mistake is that he thought they were MALES and addressed them as such! Of course, these women were offended and picketed his place. It shut down soon after. I will say I had a grat Stats prof who just happened to be gay when I was at UC DAVIS. He made statistics interesting and fun by using Led Zepplin as examples. I was lucky because anyone that had a stats class with a boring teacher probably hated stats and had a horrible time in the class.

as the expression goes, right on, bro....! flunked Stat I twice...first time had a Teaching Assistant who knew as much about statistics as I knew about astrophysics....a total disaster... next time around, a Teaching Assistant from India... not only a language barrier, but the prototypical "writing on the chalkboard with his right hand and following it with an eraser in his left hand..." scenario...! another disaster... somehow, I got through it all, but would NEVER again take a stat course...would rather sit through a semester of "Wimmins' Studies" than go through stat again....! (and I am of the male persuasion, too....!!).....
