We all talk about the "joy of learning." Well, if we're serious, and if I could, I would banish two sets of fear-ridden, stifling, enslaving questions from our campuses in the name of AC: academic correctness.
Student: "Is this important?" "Is this going to be on the test?" "Will this affect my grade?" "Why do I have to take?" "What do you want?"
Prof: "How do I grade that?" "What if it doesn't work?" "What will others think and say?" "Will this affect my getting tenure?" 'What do you want?"
Make it a good day
