【B】

Dear students, I taught my first freshman writing class more than 40 years ago. Your class will be my last. We began this term with 36 students. On the first day I thought I would probably end up giving final grades to half that number. If I had been stricter about dropping people, I would have been right. But I let lots of students off. That was no good because now I am forced to give grades that will narrow future options for people who might have gone further, if they had only tried.

If you were one of the students who missed more than five or six classes or who failed to turn in most of the homework, you need to ask yourself if you’re making good use of your time. There are always excuses for not showing up, or not handing in homework. I’ve heard them all. But lives built on excuses generally don’t turn out well.

There were handful of people in this class who made it here every day, always with the given writing task completed. If I were an employer, these are the employees (员工) I would want. But I have never liked to think of myself as working to screen employees for your future bosses. I like to think I’m working for you, and helping build your futures as more fully rounded human beings.

Few people care whether you succeed or fail. You are not showing up to class for your teachers or even your parents. You’ re not doing the homework for anyone but yourselves. In that light, some of you have failed this term. You’ve failed yourselves. As a result, some of you learned very little and showed no noticeable improvement in your writing, wasting your time and mine.

I never find it pleasant or productive to guilt-trip (使愧疚) students. But if just one of you reads these words and decides to take your education a bit more seriously, it was worth writing them.
