Chapter 44: Unfortunate Seldon
The next day, Schiller finished class and collected his homework on time as usual, but today he found that the whole class had 32 homework, and he handed it neatly, and judging from the thickness, it seemed that he had written enough words.
He was a little strange. Although he used to urge homework very tightly, there were always one or two people who did not interfere. Among the many people who interfered, many people were fooled. They wrote two pages of paper, had a pile of white paper in the middle, or simply copied some articles and handed over them.
But this time, he stood on the podium and browsed it roughly, and found that everyone had actually written the paper seriously. Although some of the papers were not very good, they had never written the papers at first glance, but at least they tried hard to get to the topic. Although the wording looked like a desperate illiterate, at least they tried hard not to get off topic.
When the students saw him flirting with his homework, they didn't dare to do it. In the past, the get out of class was about to end. The students were packing things, but now no one was moving. They were all staying in their seats honestly, waiting for Schiller to speak.
The reason for this situation is very simple. Last night, the whole class knew that Schiller had to work on his homework in order to chase Evans, and directly came to Gotham's underground king Falcone.
In the era without Batman, we will call this era the "pre-Batman era". In this era, the one with the greatest voice in Gotham was Falcone and the twelve gangster families under his rule.
How powerful is this group of gangster families? Sar Marone, the dominant in the East District, is just a lackey of the Lauren family, and the Lauren family ranks last among the twelve gangster families.
The Falcone family ranked first, and the old godfather Falcone had the right to speak for the twelve families.
In this era, you may not know who the mayor of Gotham City is, or even who Bruce Wayne is, but you must know the last names of Fanecole and the twelve other gangster families, otherwise you will not be able to survive in Gotham.
Since I learned that Schiller had chased the homework to Godfather Gotham, all the students' homework repair process last night was quite thrilling.
Schiller was very happy, so he said: "The situation of this assignment seems optimistic. It seems that everyone has finished it seriously. After I finished reviewing these assignments, I will add an extra tens of ordinary points to everyone, including several people who wrote better. If you don't have the intention to study for a graduate student, you can come to my office to talk about the recommendation letter..."
As a result, there was a sudden burst of warm applause in the classroom. I don’t know if it was the reward for Schiller or for themselves who had survived the disaster.
And all this was seen by Principal Shayton.
As for Shayton, to put it nicely, it is called persistence, but to put it nicely, it is just a axis. If he is focused on anyone, he will definitely try every means to mess with him. Although Schiller's tough attitude made him unable to start immediately, he has been looking for opportunities.
The principal can mobilize surveillance cameras in all classrooms of Gotham University and observe the teacher's lectures. This function has become the best way for Sheldon to monitor Schiller.
In the next few days, in Schiller's class, all the students were as quiet as chickens. Evans automatically took on the position of class monitor, collecting homework, handing in homework, distributing homework, and organizing classroom discipline every day. The entire teaching situation was orderly, and no one could find any problems.
This gave Shayton an illusion.
Originally, when he worked in Princeton's Academic Affairs Office, most of the students were basically at this level. After coming to Gotham University, he was busy standing firmly and did not take the initiative to understand the students' level. In his opinion, doing homework is the student's duty. Although Gotham University is not as rank as Princeton, it seems that the quality of students is not much worse.
At least that's true in Schiller's class.
Sheldon only cares about observing Schiller's classroom, and in Schiller's classroom, all the students were very quiet and the learning tasks were completed very well, which made Schiller's teaching arrangements go smoothly.
So Shetton had other thoughts.
As we all know, the campus alcohol ban he promoted was stuck in a position that was neither up nor down.
Most of the people who are willing to follow this plan have handed over the alcohol, but those who are unwilling are all deadly members of the group. This group of people would rather resist with guns than let the school interfere with their right to drink.
Students can resist with guns, but as principal Shetton, he cannot force the students to not drink with guns. He is not a native Gotham native, and his thinking is still in a civilized society. Therefore, this plan is stuck in a very awkward position and there is no way to continue to be implemented.
When they found out that they didn't eat the wine, Shayton wanted to come and toast again.
Before taking office in administration, Shayton was also a professor. He graduated from the University of Oxford and taught at both the University of California and Metropolitan University.
Shetton felt that to control Gotham University, one must also get along with the students. It is also a good route to be popular with everyone like Harvey.
So he wanted to teach a course by himself.
It happened that there were almost no literature department at Gotham University, and there was only one basic course teacher. The major of literature and philosophy has not been recruiting students for many years. After all, this damn ghost place really has no soil for literature and philosophy.
Revitalize the Department of Literature and take the lead in reviving the major of literature. If he can recruit a group of students from the School of Literature who are taught by himself, then he will have his own direct department in this school. This is what Shetton planned.
And it seems that Schiller's classroom is very comfortable and his teaching objectives are well implemented. In general, it is just that the weather is clear and the rain stops, and Shayton thinks he is OK again.
Although he is a university professor, the course process is not much different from teaching elementary school. Shedton is like a cloud player watching videos. He looked at Shiller at the other end of the monitoring and felt relaxed.
Schiller's class process is just to walk into the classroom, wait for the students to sit down, then take out the textbook to start the lecture, and there will be one or two discussion sessions in the middle. After the discussion, either Schiller asks questions or the group sends someone to speak. After the speech, Schiller will give a round of summary, and then talk about something else. When the get out of class is about to end, the homework will be closed. At the beginning of the next class, there will be a part of evaluating the homework.
This is the case in the university classroom in the 20th century. There are no fancy slides. Most teachers read the subjects according to the script, and this is even more so for subjects such as psychology that require a lot of memorization. If you don’t explain the book thoroughly, you won’t want to learn anything.
This process is indeed not difficult to watch in the classroom video. If the students cooperate, they can even finish the teaching objectives in advance. When they are about to end, they can chat for a while.
Since the students became particularly obedient, Schiller was willing to talk to them about the crazy murderers he had seen. Although Schiller could no longer remember many details because of his amnesia, this legendary experience still made these young boys listen to it with relish. They found that this extra strict professor did have his own outstanding features.
When announcing the establishment of the School of Literature, Shetton fired the teacher in the basic literature class and started teaching by himself.
Just like most cloud players in game videos, when watching videos, I feel that I can go on it, and I point fingers and point out crazy from the perspective of God, but when I really get into the game, I basically get killed and lost. I will withdraw from the game and get refunded in one go.
Shetton is no exception.
After he really started class, he found that Schiller's class was a completely illusion. There was no obedient student here. Basic literature and basic psychology courses were somewhat similar to those of psychology, which was that they needed to recite a lot and also needed to write papers.
The first time I handed in my homework, I only handed in two of them, one of which only wrote half of the word count.
Shetton showed off his tough politician style and denounced this behavior of not handing in class, so when he handed in the second time, he didn't hand in a single copy.
For example, science courses such as mathematics and physics courses are more interested in, so there will be no Gotham University student who listens to the class carefully in such a complicated and boring course as basic literature courses.
The students do everything in class, and sleeping is already considered a good hobby, such as eating, chatting loudly, pressing the gamepad to make a sound, and even flying leaves in public.
No matter how Shayton shouted, no one paid attention to him. Even if he slammed the door and left, it was just that this class turned into an equally chaotic self-study.
Shetton also doesn't know Gotham. If he knew it, he would know that the students were already good enough, and the quality of those who could go to college in this city was really high enough.
In this city, there are no guns that threaten classmates, no physical bombing schools, and no kidnap teachers and professors. Gotham students can already be called the city's model of civilization.
But Shetton was almost angry with them.
In particular, many students knew that the damn prohibition was made by Shayton, so they began to protest in Shayton's class. Someone took a whole box of champagne, pulled the plug in the front row, squirted at Shayton, poured him over with wine, and even organized a party to drink in the class.
Shedton shouted that she would deduct credits and expel them. The group didn't care at all. Shedton fired two students, and the remaining students became even more crazy. As a result, on a dark night, Shedton walked in the school, and was smashed by two bottles thrown out of the grass and was admitted to the hospital.
He could not understand why the students who were like quails in Schiller's class turned into crazy extremists when he arrived.
