How much homework?

Except for the highly motivated “star” students, I expect most aren’t doing enough. Apparently that doesn’t keep them from expecting to make $145,500/year! Perhaps they should read the homework rant at the Right Wing Nation.

Here’s an excerpt on how student expectations have changed….

In fact, students today have a lot of expectations I did not when I was an undergraduate. I don’t recall expecting that I should get an A because of how much I studied, or because I “tried really hard.” I don’t recall expecting that mediocre work that barely fulfilled the requirements would get me an A. I don’t recall expecting to receive partial credit if my answer was incorrect. I don’t recall expecting that I could pass a course while rarely going to class or doing only part of the assigned work.
