It's not just America that uses the word lecture we do over here as well, if you were in any form of higher education you might know but I doubt your get that far.

I always managed to make it to lectures but I couldn't really be bothered with all the tutorials aswell.

Wierd, when I was at Uni I did it the other way round. We got most the lecture notes anyway and if you had any questions, the tutorials were the best place to ask them.
Of course I only had about 15-20 hours of lectures and tutorials a week (Computer Science graduate here). Some engineering students had 35+ hours. Can understand them wanting to skip the odd 50 tutorials.

Well, lectures for me were just about copying stuff down. Tutorials you had to prepare stuff for and then talk about it during them. I just went to one of the module's tutorials to glean any knowledge from them, my mates took other tutorials and we then just pooled the information later. So, instead of having to do loads of work for 6 or 7 modules, we only did one each.

I think computers are too annoying really.

It took me ages to work out how to use it.

I can't wait til they get proper implnats.

My company replaced all the monitors with 17" flatscreen ones. Very nice and expensive.
Then they got rid of a few THOUSAND staff. But I've got a nice monitor though :?
