What the fuck do I do /sci/? Organizing according to race is just something I always do before I start marking. It makes it easier to spot cheaters because friends always copy.

Why were you doing this in the first place you moron? Besides, you should go through and grade all answers to the first problem, then grade all answers for the second problem, etc. in order. It's easier to tell matching answers this way.

Man, please just help me I'm having a fucking heart attack, I need to think of something.

Should I try to explain go explain myself to the professor and the dean asap? I don't know maybe the students just take it as a joke and forget about it.

>>7562674
It's a class test with only a single, albeit very long derivation. Look I was explicitly told at the start of the semester that students with the exact same answers should be investigated, incidences recorded, and excessive cases punished and this happens at nearly every in.

I mean, I do it to all races and people I know who are friends so it's not like I was discriminating against anyone.

relax. if you did it alphabetical, of course you going to group them by race.

all huangs and juns will obviously be asian
all jacksons and washingtons will be black
all martinez will be hispanics
all schmitts, schitzels, miers and smiths will be white.

Thank you for the advice. I'm just going to lay low and hope no one says anything, if they so I'll deny it's racial and just say it's organized for friends and people who close to each other, which is the truth anyways.

No, it's roughly 10% black, 40% white 30% Asian and 20% Muslim/Arabic.

I usually split the handout piles at home at a certain letter, then keep them seperate with file binders so I don't have to make a hassle in class. The piles are never even even when all the students hand in because a lot of surnames start with the same letter etc.

Today when I put them out I didn't check to announce the letters or anything because the prof. was busy speaking and I felt the students knew the drill by now.

Wow exactly right, yes it's my first year as a TA. Probably my last.

You know, ironically, I literally didn't even ask for this, my adviser forced me to because he needed one and no wanted to TA his class because it's too difficult.

Many of the students in this class actually really like me because I'm the only one that takes the time to explain things in detail to them (prof. does not give a fuck and is too busy anyway).

I'm also fairly precocious in general so I'd good friends with a few of the students in the class, though unfortunately only white and two black students. I'm not that great friends with the black students though I went out drinking with them once.

I'm not a racist. You would understand the need for categorization if you were marking, if you're grouping similar papers out memory -as I was ORDERED to do- you'd end up with same races for 90% of the tests.

I hope your a ethics or anthropology teacher. Get away with an edgy lecture tactic.

"According to stereotypes, races preform differently when tested. Some worse then others. I separated the tests into piles by race, and averaged the results. I'm glad to tell you that each pile averaged about the same. Stereotypes are bad people."
