Representatives
gollark: Or I can just never go on camera and remain eerily silent in voice.
gollark: To be fair, some people probably weren't managing well, but that's no reason to do this to everyone.
gollark: I was basically fine with the "not much supervision, you get set work" thing, but this is just stupid.
gollark: I mean, I was fine with working remotely. I could get more done, did not have to bother with (as much) busy-work, had a flexible schedule, sort of thing.
gollark: It seems like they just completely disregarded the benefits of asynchronous communication, and decided that they had to make it as much like normal in-person school as possible, even despite the detriment to... actually teaching things.
