Professor Weiss really doesn't care about his students, no matter what he says. Just survive the class and you'll do alright. Don't be lazy or he might accuse you of plagiarism, and expect poor grades because he expects that everyone's perfect.

Engineering Communication: From Principles to Practice
Robert Irish
Engineering Communication: From Principles to Practice
Two years ago
a satirical column in the Engineering undergraduate comic newspaper elicited complaints and the accusation of homophobia from the university community. Engineering students
faculty and staff responded with several initiatives to counteract being stereotyped as homophobic. The Lady Godiva Bnad (sic)
which had always marched in the Toronto Gay Pride Parade
actually built a float and set off the cannon
winning the (perhaps only ever) Shock and Awe Award. Faculty members
staff and students formed an Engineering Positive Space committee and
with the student group
LGBTQase (Lesbian
Gay
Bisexual
Trans
Queer and Allies in Science and Engineering)
developed a poster that raised awareness of the diverse sexuality of engineering students as well as an Engineering Positive Space badge with a unique \"engineering\" variation of the Positive Space rainbow triangle
