Shut Up! We Delete Your Post!

It seems that our CS teachers don’t like being told their tests were hard and we should be retested, because they deleted the post off the newsgroup:

I don’t remember the post being rude to any of the teachers, the poster simply outlined what he felt was wrong with the test- the first GUI coding question (which you only got warned about if you went to some optional review session on Sunday), the polymorphism question was so long that few people finished the test, the dynamic binding question was incredibly difficult, and the fact that the professors didn’t go over a bunch of the material in class or cover in the homework. This censorship is totally unreasonable, so what are they going to do next? Delete any legitimate critique of their homework? What about when someone has a question about some part of the HW- that implies that it’s hard right?

    I know we’re supposed to check the newsgroups every day, but in all honesty, i dont think I have in over a month.

    It does outrage me that they would censor an honest critique…typical professors. Damn shame.
