hah! That was actually pretty good. I want to go see the full version now.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

This is good. I think I've dreamed about doing something like this in an especially dry class. I wonder - is he mic-ed, or are the acoustics just really good in there?

Accoustics are probably good. The lecture hall is designed so that people in the audience can hear the speaker, and not quite by design the reverse is true, that is, the speaker can hear the students. The camera appears to be near the bottom so they don't necessarily need a mic, though they may have one.

"Hey teach!

I've got a question -- what I mean is. . . it's just. . .

We come to class everyday it seems, we all fall asleep we've lost all our dreams.

There is no inspiration.

But when did we become this way, so disillusioned? So blasé?

I can't make the calculation.

Can I borrow your TI-83?

Hey teach!

Have you thought for a while

about the impact that you have on us?

Teach!

I think it's high time that you tried

to extend your learning on to us and reach!

Are you with me classmates?

YEAH.

(One person)

What about that guy over there? Why aren't you taking notes? Don't you even care?

This is your education.

This girl sitting over here, she talks a lot in class but her thoughts are never really quite clear.

So much mental masturbation

Is it we..who are to blame.

Hey TEACH!!!!

All the professors in movies and TV

like "Dead Poets Society,"

and they risk their very professions for the chance

to be inspirations to kids like me!

Hey teach!

It's no wonder why we're here.

You must think we only party and drink beer.

But all we need is just one chance...

to be treated as your equals and to dance.

Hey teach!

It's no wonder why we're here.

You must think we only party and drink beer.

I think it's high time that you tried

to extend your learning.. on.. to.. us.. and REACH! TEACH!"
