In 1974 freshman classes seemed to have about 1 instructor per 50 students. ( my calculus class had 120 people in an auditorium). These were weeding courses designed to weed out the people who couldn’t learn from the textbook. I lasted 2 quarters, having come from a highs school where senior classes were 1 instructor per 15-20 students and there was a lot of interaction in the classes. I never saw an “administrator” and the only contact was a mailed notice of academic suspension. UF only cared about tuition money, textbook money, and an easy life for the staff. As Frank Zappa said, go to college for a diploma, go to the library for an education.
