Should i watch during my class today? its just a lecture, and i sit in the back. I should, right?
Absolutely. I'm almost disappointed you felt a need to ask. Enjoy.
It's been decided! I will watch the game while sitting in the back of the lecture hall! let's just hope my laptop has enough battery to last me the length of the game and take notes for my next class after that.
I, alldaboston, will not hold tarheelsxxiii accountable if I am removed from class and/or terminated from University under any circumstances.

I've filled in the information for you tarheels. TP and good doing business with you.
Luckily, I have yet to be scheduled to teach an evening course, but I have to imagine that I'd be one of the "cool" professors that wouldn't have a problem with this. Hell, more than likely I'd have live updates for the C's game up, too lol If it's a big lecture hall, then you should be able to stream the game without sound pretty easily without getting noticed.
I can't tell you how many classes I skipped in the 2012 season when we made it all the way to the ECF. This was before I had DVR or NBALP, so I had to watch the games live or not at all. There was one stretch where I missed three weeks in a row to watch games. Obviously, Celtics basketball is more important than a CORE class on systematic theology!
haha, i must wonder how your students felt! though, im on the west coast, so its a 4:30 game which isnt too late.
also, thats interesting that you teach about that. the course im taking is about the history of encounters between Theology and Science. its pretty interesting to be honest.
Haha actually, I was meaning as a student I was skipping that class. I only recently started teaching myself. The professor of that class was boring and never really stayed on topic with anything, so it was just icing on the cake to skip the class for a game anyways. I don't think I could get away with skipping three weeks of class as a professor lol
And this was a core course on Wesleyan theology, or at least it was supposed to be. The professor decided to just treat it as his personal memoir course, and pretty much everyone hated it.
One of my all-time favorite classes that I took as a student was Science and Christianity, which is essentially the same type of class you're taking now. It was a very, very interesting class, and it really opened my eyes to a lot and showed me how Christianity, and religion in general, doesn't have to be opposed to science.
