    Man, my CS Final freshman year we had to write like a three page script by hand, and you’d get points off for margin spacing. On fucking paper.

      Same here. Professor was an absolute clown too, his example HTML boilerplate for some project we had to do had © 1996 professor dipshit This was early 2010s. He also took points off my midterm one semester for not surrounding my JS with comment tags since, otherwise it wouldn’t run on Netscape"

      WTF! Like, I understand not allowing IDEs or anything with syntax highlighting for an exam. But can’t that be accomplished by just using something like notepad on a kiosk computer made for testing?

        That would require effort and planning on the professors end! This was a big 10 school too, shows where the money is spent.
