    yeah i agree, a lot of the students seemed to have no comprehension of what a 'school of thought' was. one asked whether it meant they all went to the same primary school. :eek: okay i'm probably a snob but...fuck. and people seemed like they weren't even interested in it either which is...

    Nope, we didn't get to go to the English ones. But I did go to the Extension lecture! And if you were there, you would have heard ME do nothing but answer questions! Haha! they thanked our teacher at the end for our participation and everyone was like "we know nothing, it's just her"
