    Asked to guess how many students would be suffering from the after effects of alcohol on a typical Monday morning, the French lecturer estimated that it would be one third of the students would have a hangover.


    well this says it all. she has no idea how many students are hungover, it is a total guess. obviously some are going to be hungover but we cant take a guess from a lecturer to be an accurate statistic.

    Lets just clarify this:
    A lecturer at NUI Galway has revealed that up to up to one third of the students attending her classes come in with hangovers and expressed the belief that alcohol has become a serious problem in our colleges.

    This is someone's opinion. I wonder how she came to this conclusion. did she breathalyse students ? Conduct a survery ???

    Most likely they just look hungover becuase her lectures are boring

    Maybe some are just tired or maybe the college where RAG week was canceled due to it causing a lot of damage from drinking related issues has a problem with drink.

    Why not base it on their grades? Surely that's a better way to gauge who the government should be putting through college.

    If you saw me at 9 on a typical Monday morning "bleary-eyed" would be a complete understatement and that's without ever having touched a drink.

    She probably just has an awful personality. I'm sure she meets a lot of hungover people.

    One third? It seems the percentage has decreased. This is indeed good news.

    I'm sure you could say that about a lot of people in work today too (Damn you Spain with your sexy style of football that made me drink copious anounts of wine last night while sing "Viva Espana").

    I had a saucy French lecturer for a year in College, to be fair to her she had some 'mi-wadi' on her tho not the best face but I'd defo have still given her one in the jax after a lecture. Anyway my point is that even this French Milf in her short skirts couldn't get me into French class anymore than 10 times over the whole year. I gave up French after that year cos we were getting a fella to lecture us who defo would have failed me :o
