Quote #10
Grades for the demos wouldn't be available for another twenty hours or so. They would have plenty of time to agonize over their failings. Nevertheless, Louise Chumlig looked quite cheerful, giving each student her congratulations—and deflecting all manner of questions about whether this or that deficit should truly be of any grading significance. (34.1)
To end, here's another aspect of the future that remains the same as now: even when students might make money with their final projects, it's hard not to worry about the grade. Maybe one day we'll have computerized teachers that give grades immediately. We can only hope. (Also, note that this is from Robert's POV and he doesn't call Chumlig or the students any names—so we know he's changed.)
