consider TA for them! Professors are always keen on improving their classes. Most take TA feedback really well and others will encourage you to brainstorm better ways to run the class (especially teaching labs).
a caveat on front-row sitting: behave yourself. professors can see you more easily, but can also be annoyed by you more easily. if you want to text or sleep or talk to your neighbor, do it in the back row. and when office hours roll around, they’ll remember.


I’ve never been concerned with huge class sizes. Most of your classmates are content to let the entire quarter pass by without interacting with the professor or TA once.
