I have a lack of enthusiasm for teaching. I am discontented with the university administration. We all know that the first class is not critical. I acknowledge a lack of preparation for class.
Summer is vacation time for the faculty.
The syllabus is not that important. Deadlines are not important either. This is an experiment and students are the guinea pigs. I have a lack of enthusiasm for this course in particular. I am also unhappy with the departmental administration.
