a little tip #4

If you are in class and do not understand what the professor is talking about, ASK QUESTIONS! there is no such thing as a stupid question. If you do ask, chances are that the whole class is wondering the same thing. Yes, you might be intimidated at first to ask a question surrounding three hundred people in the class, but it is for your own knowledge. Professors are there to help a student succeed, they are not there to make fun of your questions.
