Talk to UClub on profs' pet peeves article

The Huffington Post article on professor's pet peeves resonanted among my colleagues at ISU.  So I'll be talking about professors' pet peeves as well as how I was able to be a source on that article and some other articles.

My talk to the University Club audience is Friday, Sept. 16 at 4:30 pm. 

Here's a link to the University Club website with more information.

Professor's pet peeves and succeeding in college

Just a note to say that I'm quoted in an article today on the Huffington Post on "Professor's Pet Peeves."  And yes, that's really something that bothers me.  I also agree with most of the other professors.  In general to succeed in college, you need to:

• attend class on a regular basis
• pay attention and engage in the class discussion
• take notes in class
• review notes after the class
• don't use electronic devices in class as they are distracting to you and others
• do the homework
• get to know other students in class to possibly share notes and study together
• but do your own work and don't plagiarize.
