Some of them don't give you anything useful in class, but many do, and being there and awake at all times is a very good idea.

I feel so blessed to be able to go to this college. One thing that is so awesome about it is that the professors actually *do* care about the students. They actually teach all the classes, instead of letting teaching assistants, and *enjoy* it. Their office doors are open and they'll discuss almost anything with you - from their lecture that morning to, for example, how nice it was to see you perform with the flute choir in church. Of course, each of us still has to take responsibility for how well we do, but it's nice to know that the professors are on our side.
