Please write the lab manual instead of pooping on a sheet of paper and smearing it with a stick. Thank you.

That was one response to "What aspects of this course could be improved?" last spring. I'm 99% sure I know which student it came from.

I get one comment, in some form or another, every term for the required course that I teach:
The lab reports are annoying. They take too much time and I don't learn anything from them.
The problem is, this is a lab course. There are no exams. There is pre-lab homework, lab reports, and a design your own experiment project. So feel free to avoid those annoying lab reports kids, but... it's a lab course...

I was entertained to discover that two students in the same section had diametrically-opposing views. One had liked everything about the course, with one exception, and the other had hated everything, with the same exception. The exception: my hair.

One of my favorites, from ten years or so ago: "I'm really afraid that Dr. mended_drum may be responsible for the loss of my eternal soul. It is important to consider eternity and damnation of people and students when hiring professors!"
If I were evaluating you for tenure and I saw that evaluation, it would have made me even more likely to vote for you. You RULE!

I am reviving this thread to post this gem I just received on a student evaluation. Verbatim:
I think it would be better to not use chicago style format for papers because i am not from Chicago and i have not been taught chicago format before.

In my opinion, Secundem_artem is precisely correct.
I think secundem_artem, rather, has hit the nail on the head.
