<p>He’s not that funny; he’s actually pretty monotone. But the way he acted like nothing was happening was funny relative to how he usually is.</p>
<p>Nobody really wanted to leave, since it’s discussion and most people that didn’t want to be there… weren’t there.</p>
<p>is it brad (or whatever his name is)? the uber nerdy sounding guy?</p>
<p>Uh, no, my TA’s name isn’t Brad. It was a CS61B discussion, to be more specific. None of the TA’s are named Brad.</p>
<p>So I just found out that my midterm (at 6pm today) is in Dwinelle?? </p>
<p>What’s the probability of the alarm getting pulled there -___-</p>
<p>is that some sort of request flutterfly? i can make it happen… for a price. :D</p>
<p>Quote from GSI this morning pre-8am midterm:</p>
<p>“If the fire alarm goes off - not that I think it will; it’s too early for them - we’ll evacuate to (location)”</p>
<p>And indeed it was 
Commiserations to those who were victims of this, though =/</p>
<p>pretty ridiculous, these protesters… how many midterms were disrupted today?</p>
<p>I’m so glad nobody pulled the fire alarm in Dwinelle during the Math 53 midterm. That would’ve been an enormous pain.</p>
<p>No fire alarm. </p>
<p>But what an awful awful midterm. Anyone on here in Charman’s Physics 8B?</p>
<p>I was in lab in LeConte when the fire alarms went off and it was incredibly annoying. It made a lab that could’ve taken 1.5 hours to like 2.5 hours (we were out for like 1/2 hour) and we had to re set up our lab.</p>
<p>@flutter HOLY **** why was that midterm impossible??</p>
<p>They triggered the alarm in VLSB around 2:45pm. I had a midterm at 3pm and was studying in the library when it went off. Fortunately they got people back in and stuff by 3.</p>
<p>What struck me was how happy some people were. That was odd, usually I thought people protest because they were angry??</p>
<p>@jb - I don’t know but I had no idea how to do the fractions problems and a bunch of others… The old tests online were so easy :(</p>
<p>i was in VLSB when they pulled the fire alarm…it was merely a waste of time, since the professor attempted to teach outside, before we headed back in after the 25 min hiatus.</p>
<p>VLSB–>Wheeler–>Evans</p>
<p>They pulled the alarm at every place where I was in my classes…</p>
<p>dude… eyeheartphysics… CS61b?</p>
<p>Leconte 385 Kevin… lol~</p>
<p>I’m in your class xD</p>
<p>whew i’m glad i took 8b over the summer. easy peasy ahah</p>
<p>I should have taken Physics 7B over the summer. :[</p>
<p>I heard the 7B midterm was incredibly difficult with an avg of 50%.</p>
<p>Yeah, I’m really glad the fire alarm in Dwinelle was pulled AFTER the math 53 midterm. could’ve been a huge pain</p>
<h2>Agreeing with EHP here. Urgh…Ramesh is a horrifically bad lecturer, and while Corey may be a GREAT GSI, he’s pretty terrible as an administrator.</h2>
<p>As I’ve said several times, the protests are no longer about the issues the participants are chanting about; they’re about the organizers doing what little they can to preserve the feeling that they’re still a powerful force in the University of California. Their power was very real in the 1960s for a number of reasons, very few of which had to do with the organizers themselves, but the climate and issue in this case are both so radically different that the protests are utterly meaningless and do little more than waste time and resources that could be better invested in trying to fix the problems with the system by putting pressure on those who actually have the power to enact significant changes.</p>
