However, there still seems to be many hurdles when research, teaching, and overall professional development should be the focus. The discussion forum for this new program was not well advertised. A large amount of work frm different classes can all be due within a short time, such as problem sets, labs, and exams. Sometimes there can be many exams in the same week. Or, a problem set can be due immediately after an exam, in the same class.
Some problem sets can be more grungy than necessary for understanding the material.
The EECS labs should not close at night, but be open 24 hours per day. Final Suggestions Please make sure the new EECS building is really nice. The EECS web page needs improvement. The textbooks written by MIT faculty should be published via MIT, as is similarly done for 6.002.
