laptop in class?

[Paul McSwizzle]

do you go to a school where it is standard to have a laptop with you in class?

[DougieG]

Not standard, not uncommon. I'd say around 5-7% of the students at SDSU use laptops in class.

I don't go to class, but when it's mandatory that's I do.

If I was gonna get on 2p2 during class I just wouldnt go in the first place.

Except a lot of students who go but don't pay attention still want to be able to tell their parents/whoever that they go to class.

Why do you ask?

From what I've seen when the course is mathy, graphy, numbery, etc. there are less laptops compared to verbal lectures in faculties like Soc Sci, and English.

All of my classes...

I think like 95% of law students use laptops. I had one professor last year who didn't allow them because he thinks they are a distraction. He is right.
