...This is a second-rate, hack work," countered Columbia's Edward W. Tayler. "It's clumsy, inept. It's a clunker. It's quite clear to anyone who doesn't have a zinc ear that this is not a poem written by Shakespeare...
...have plagued lawyers, engineers, members of corporate boards and even clergymen. A growing number of clerics are buying, or having their churches buy, policies to protect them against suits like the one brought by a California couple who attributed the suicide of their 24-year-old son largely to inept counseling by his pastors.

...uncommon, but I’d venture that it has never manifested itself so openly before. This is pure viciousness, barely reigned in and often resulting in two or three zealous students backing the TF into a corner, flustered and inarticulate. I’ve had my share of inept, over-enthusiastic, or even demonic TFs, but I still sympathize when section degenerates into persecution of some hapless graduate student...
