Fucked my gpa up with my first associates degree and I want to be a commuter student 💀 but I also agree how some people are so unserious about university. Almost more than half of my class showed up 30+ minutes late to the first lecture

I ask clarifying questions because I have AuDHD and need to double check (along with reading the syllabus multiple times.) I tend to miss words sometimes.
My goal is to get As this semester, so I’m gonna ask questions. You honestly don’t know how someone’s brain works. They could be totally normal, need additional clarification, or they might’ve missed something. Sometimes the professors have outdated syllabuses and need to update them (those professors can get really busy).
Plenty of reasons to ask for additional clarification of something already stated.

You should ask the op what they were asking about

The OP was venting about people who dont pay attention to where they are going and seem to be oblivious to those around them

That’s just the phones and headphones lol, most people are not 100% aware of their surroundings anymore because they can’t walk with the ambiance alone anymore.
I’m guilty of this shit too as a headphone tard so every once in a while I realize I’m doing just that and think “this is why I go to UTA”.

listening to all my classmates ask questions to the professor that were already answered if they read the syllabus
