Wayne Allyn Root believes that if you could unseal Obama’s college records, you will find that:

My statistics class was so poorly taught by heavily Chinese accented TA, most of my class attended other lectures and only showed up for the scheduled quizzes and tests.

That is the truth! Once the university (read: ‘graduation factory’) gets their hands on your tuition, they could care less if you attend or pass your classes. PERIOD

Didn’t anybody ever complain that they couldn’t understand the instructor?

My experience was far different - nearly every professor, both undergrad and graduate school had strict attendance policies and took roll.

Yup. In four years of undergrad never saw any prof or grad assistant count roll.

“My statistics class was so poorly taught by heavily Chinese accented TA, most of my class attended other lectures and only showed up for the scheduled quizzes and tests.”

Remember a few classes where I saw someone or someones I hadn’t seen since the first day show up for finals!
