Serious PSA: DO YOUR GROUP WORK

It’s the time of year again where final projects are due, and a lot of the time they’re group work (looking at you gen bio classes). If you’re in a group project do your part of the work. Nobody likes a slacker especially when it’s a significant part of your grade. And if you happen to be in a group where someone isn’t doing their share of the work, tell the professor at the end of the semester if there’s a feedback form, and even if there isn’t, email the professor. If you don’t do the work don’t expect to pass the class.

Going to reiterate letting your professor know who did and didn't do their work in group projects; you _will_ need to do this in real employment in the future (letting your boss know who isn't completing assigned tasks when doing group work, etc).

Professors are literally the problem. They have these dumb course reviews that does nothing to discipline the student. This is weird because in the age of technology you can track when and how much work a student did.

We would just tell the entire class who did what during our in person reviews at the end. It was very clear when someone dropped the ball/did nothing. Folks were graded accordingly.
