It's An Effin' Seminar Class People

The professor for writing seminar class on White Collar Crime assigned 5 students to lead the discussion for tonight. Those five divided up the 120 pages of reading. Smart thing to do right? Well one of them didn't show. But that's not the sad part. The sad part follows.

One of them got up in front of class, posed a hypothetical to the class, assigned two students to debate the issues, and used the whiteboard in the process. Another passed out a four page handout, which looks like an outline with case briefs, to help with his discussion. Thankfully, he included his name on each page... as if any of us would forget.

So I've been assigned to the group to lead next week's discussion and we're already joking about doing a Powerpoint presentation. Emphasis on joking, because the rest of us realize it's just a seminar class. I hope.
