In your class there are many different faces. Some of them are familiar; others
one has never seen. Each semester is like a lottery. When one enters a new classroom
there is hope one will see an old classmate or friend. There is also anticipation
of meeting great, new people. Maybe one likes that kind of surprise, but there are
certainly advantages with knowing who is in your class, before starting or signing
up for the course. This is similar to students reviewing the detailed ratings of
the professors in order to know what to expect.
