When Rome sustained a city with a population of over a million residents, continuously for 500 years, without having any catchment area of its own, we can only conclude that the way in which Romans handled various aspects of the city administration and the food supply chain etc had to be the optimal way of doing it.
Agreed, and now there is no confusion why we read a case on Roman Grain Trade, before the first class of Critical Management Thinking.
This was one of the statements made by prof. Rolf who is going to teach us this subject.
Some of the highlights of this first session - Our professor distributed freely a lot of apologies before hand - so that we can refer back to the history of this class, and use those apologies whenever we feel bad that he cut our comment off, saying it as irrelevant, or whenever he makes fun of comments made by us and someone gets "offended", etc.
Facebook to Twitter - everything is allowed: and the reasoning behind it: We have already paid huge amount as a tuition fee to IE, so if we prefer to use that spending to browse facebook when sitting in the class, he doesn't care. His salary is secured anyways :-)
I specially found one thing more interesting than others - the way he said he will grade class participation. If the class participation is good and contributes to improvement of overall grade, it will be included. If not, it will be considered neutral and not be considered. In other words, the message sent out was "don't participate for sake of grades."
This prof has his unique style of teaching and any stupid comment made in his class got shot in the face. I think even though Rolf is way too different than Garen, thanks to him, we will not miss Garen so much :-)
Another class to look forward to :-)
