No. It was a frequent topic of conversation among college classmates. It was mainly as a way to commiserate over the 800-1000 page average weekly reading loads per seminar/colloquium class and to exchange insights/techniques on how to best tackle that load as effectively and efficiently timewise as possible so we could juggle other class assignments, ECs, part-time jobs, or just time to hang out or enjoy fun campus activities like watching Avery Brooks performing live on campus.
One older classmate would frequently ask me how I was able to get through our weekly class readings as quickly as I could whereas he’d struggle and often not finish. A factor which caused him serious academic problems he was trying to avoid the second time around.
