Econs = Information Overload.
We're covering 80% of the Principles of Economics Book in ONE effing term (a.k.a. 12 weeks) when the dear author of the book, Gregory Mankiw, mentioned in the Preface to the INSTRUCTOR that the whole book is
" designed for TWO- semester introductory courses that cover both microeconomics and macroeconomics".
Don't instructors/curriculum formulator/or which ever sadistic idiot came up with the syllabus read this important section?!
JC people had at least 1.5 years to learn all these!
We're discounted 20% of the book, topics of which happen to be more interesting.
Ok. I'm done being irritated. Back to stuffing my brain.
I like Econs. I just don't like being overly force fed it. It's like stuffing 5 bars of chocolate into my mouth at any given time.
