I Hate The University of Waterloo...

Good grief.

So, both of my DE courses are fucking ridiculous.

I’m enrolled in PD7: Conflict Resolution and PHYS 222 DE: Electricity and Magnetism 1.

For PD7, I get the usual access through ACE. But, because I think they like to be hip, cool, and technologically trendy, they have most of their course content done through video. This is very difficult to stream when you are on a shitty residential internet connection at a high school. It takes me 15-20 minutes to stream a single video, and the first part of the first module has 6 or 7 videos in it.

Unbelievable.

For PHYS 222 DE, they sent me a nice little CD full of the audio lectures, and I was given instructions to buy the textbook with the solution manual. So, I did all that.

I start listening to the lectures today, and the professor is making reference to some course notes. So, I go back to Book Look and start fishing around to see where these course notes are made available from. There is no information about them whatsoever. So, he is making all these references to things that I CANNOT SEE, rendering the audio lectures entirely useless.

Ugh…this is not at all what I needed for this term. Stupid bullshit administration of programs.
