I have ventured out of my department and into another school within the university for one of my classes this semester. So far, I am highly impressed.
How sad is that? Just one class and already I'm impressed off my ass with this other department. It just confirms what I have said from the very beginning...my department/school has its head so firmly planted up its ass that the light of common sense shall never be seen within its halls.
The next 13 Tuesdays should prove to be quite interesting...and finally it is in a good way!

I can caution that I had the opposite experience recently, taking three classes outside my department almost made me believe what a modicum of academic life my department is almost.
Of course, the "bush must go" bit above was way over the top.
