It has been hot lately and to fight the heat I have been drinking beer. I don’t like to drink alone so I have been going out with friends to drink. The other night I drank with a friend who is a freeway flier (part-time faculty who teach at 2 or 3 schools) like me. He was complaining about night classes. I told him I love night classes. The students in night classes are usually older and thereby better students. This started the question of why are older students better. Is it because older students have more life experience to draw upon? Is it their discipline? Or is it that their basic skills (3R) are ahead of the more recent high school graduates?
This is an interesting site.
