Anyway can we make participation and attendance grades illegal bc not only does depression make everything difficult but my Italian class is so goddam boring and at 8.30 in the morning and I have 0 incentive to go bc she doesn't explain anything beyond what i could read in the textbook and I hate sitting in a class full of undergrads asking the stupidest frickin questions and we move so slow like we've done 3 units in 6 weeks
