This is not encouraging at all. I start teaching today.

Nah! Don't believe them...Best of luck teaching this year.
I would usually agree to that statement. Unless the class is taught by exceptional teachers - which makes all the difference. All the best for teaching in the new year! :)
Abi, all the best for the teaching. I am so sorry I could not say this earlier but it was Horrible to see IISC being attacked. I was traveling at that time. The attack leaves me really distressed.
Well, it depends on the teacher :)
Patrix, Sue, Mridula, Apurva, Suhail: thanks for your comments. Thanks also for expressions of support from some of you.
The masters of the universe -- I mean, Google -- may have had an interesting and timely message for me (and others like me). But I like that quote by Thomas Merton, it's so ... liberating.
