my first day of computer logic the prof said, "Look to the left of you, look to the right of you, look in front of you and look behind you, because by graduation day, four of the five of you won't be here."

and he was right...

Oh, did you go to Stony Brook too? The professor who taught CS-101 that year seems to have been brilliant. His doctorate was from Brown University in numerical methods for solving non-linear equations. But the guy wasn't a good teacher. He was stumped at trying to present the difference between a function and a relation. A simple drawing on the blackboard took care of it for everyone in the class. Though what people who didn't know that in advance were doing in that class escapes me. And they were gone well before mid-term.
