Choose to consider giving your prof a bad eval.
I love hypotheticals. These are really, really lame hypotheticals.
Why are we assuming the pregnant high school dropout has a low IQ? That's a fucking lazy stereotype.
One guy is black (why is his race relevant and nobody else's?) and also a militant? Black militants are an issue for our doomsday scenario? Is it 1970?
We know nothing about the prostitute except that she's almost 40 and retired. Unless we're doing some kind of weird damaged goods scenario?
If the architect is a guy, why are we assuming he can't squirt in a cup?
And you know what? Your prof probably didn't write this, because it's too fucking dated. Your prof is lazy and copied this from somebody.

10/1 it's a mulatto kid :DDD

Also re: the homosexual: if it were up to him to help repopulate the human race maybe he'd have sex with one or more women? But your response is really good and made me lol. Excellent point.
The last line - profs recycle stuff all the time, I don't get why that makes them lazy? If they see an exercise they think is good they may use it. (even if others don't think it's good)
I do think this feels rather dated, but I still found it interesting.
Re: Choose to consider giving your prof a bad eval.
I recycle stuff whenever I'm lucky enough to teach two of the same class--but I recycle GOOD, UP TO DATE stuff.
It'd be like a political exercise that assumes Obama was just elected. Using it for a couple years? Great! Using it now? Fucking lazy.

Re: Choose to consider giving your prof a bad eval.
Everyone who teaches--either a grade school teacher or a prof or a TA like me--have to recycle because otherwise we'd go crazy. There's no reason to totally recreate a class every year. But recycling involves editing. You improve things that might not have worked last year. You update slides when new scholarship comes out or procedures change. I've changed the direction of sections slightly because I knew I had a bunch of STEM majors and wanted to add more science and tech history.
That's the thing--good teaching isn't just repeating the same shit all the time. That's why this makes me angry. It's just... lazy. Plenty of lazy people skate but it's still not good.
