I started my 3rd year of College about 2 weeks ago, it was okay, I could tell they were already giving us more work then we were usually given the previous two years, however all the lecturures were nice people, and my class mates are hilarious, though we were in the nervous to talk to each other because we're all new faces situation.
A couple of things did annoy me a little bit though, one of them (while it did provide some funny moments) we were put through one of those childish exercises ( that I know loads of people in this thread have complained about and have been through it as well) where we went around the room and each person would tell everyone their name and one thing they like, and then the next person would have to say the same thing AND repeat what the previous person said, as a way of getting us to know eachother, funny things did happen, however it felt childish and was uneeded, apart from that it was fine.
Second thing that was annoying was that my opinion of the lack of organisation by lecturures was raised much higher then it already was, because, before my summer holiday, they gave us a summer project do to, and a brief that said it MUST be finished for the return to College, and all the lectures before we left for Summer were going on urgently about how you must start working on it early into the holiday and get it done before you come back ect.
I come back only to find out we have an extention of several weeks they didn't tell us about, and I wasted and rushed during a lot of my holiday to get it done, what annoyed me even more was that the brief said I could do my project in whatever way I wanted, yet when I got back the lectururer who failed to mention this before we left for Summer told us in his opinion using my technique for the project was a bit false and should be avoided, yeah that's just great, thanks for telling me that earlier, dammit, luckily it turned out my project was fine as it was anyway.
Another thing that makes my opinion on their organisation worse is that for the past two weeks we've been told by them, and it was written on our new project brief, that we have until 25th of october to complete the new project, our tutor about two days ago has just suddenly turned around and basically said "we f'd up, the project is actually in for 25th of september, sorry" I was just thinking, what the hell, if you had got it right from the start I could've been working on the project a lot harder then I have been all this time.
