When I went to college some 25 years ago, the expectation was that you were an adult and could make your own decisions. Most professors didn’t take attendance, and expected you to read the syllabus and do what it said. If you needed to leave a class, go to the drinking fountain or whatever, no one cared. Now, at my D’s college, all the classes have specific cell phone policies, attendance policies, etc. I thought the point was to sink or swim? Since when did it turn into glorified high school?
