You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week
