My Chaucer class is full of fucktards.
On a recent, rather big assignment where the teacher asked us to translate about thirty lines from Middle English to modern English, a bunch of them cheated by either getting help or copying a published translation. The worst part? Professor had asked for a prose translation - and some of them copied a verse version. THIS IS A FUCKING THREE-HUNDRED LEVEL ENGLISH COURSE HOW CAN THEY NOT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN POETRY AND PROSE.
Now we have to do another worksheet and retranslate the section, as if between a paper due tomorrow in Women in Classical Drama and my usual language assignments I don't have enough work.
Fucktards.
