Attendance

Attendance in class has been waning recently. It's unfortunate though I can see why it's happening. A lot of the material we're learning right now is review or better learned from reading the syllabus (molecular biology, epidemiology). There's very little clinical stuff. And there's a lot of reading (or so people say; I have yet to start). The lectures aren't necessarily that great, and they're not too efficient for learning (at least if you're not an audiovisual learner). But I tend to go to lecture. I figure if someone (and a professor no less) is willing to take time out of their life to teach something, then as a student, I should glean what wisdom I can from that lecture. I also tend to feel guilty if I don't go to class.
