Barmymoo:
Ever so often, I come across an article on my reading list and the name of the author rings a bell.
Then I google them and realise they are my lecturers.
When I say "ever so often", I mean at least once a week.
look out! Ninjas!:
I once used my lecturer as my main source for an essay. They were ambivalent, mostly because they're one of the more prolific writers in taht area (Australian bill of rights)
Jimmy the Squid:
When I was at uni (shit I'm old!) my lecturer told me never to use one of your lecturers as a source for an essay, even if they're the best one. It looks like you're toadying up to them and any lecturer worth their salt won't like it. If they do like it then they're probably not a good lecturer.
Barmymoo:
The good thing for us is that in general, our lecturers are not the people who set and mark our essays. We have two generally separate systems: the university faculty organises lectures, and the lecturers are the top academics drawn from the colleges. Then the colleges organise supervisions, where our work is set. It's got good and bad points (I could go into more detail if anyone wanted me to but it would probably be quite boring).
