Adi's comment about his very very very free-culture--friendly teacher made me realize what I write below.
Two situations where this is absolutely awesome 1 Students are comfortable having their goofiness leaked. 2 Students dislike the lectures but go because some sort of proprietary information is presented only in lecture The typical example of 2 is where a teacher doesn't post lecture slides on line in order to encourage people to go to class rather than coming up with a more elegant ways of getting people to go to class, like teaching better. 2 is most annoying when the teacher uses non-standard terminology, which is pretty hard not to do in a specialized field. I'm mainly thinking of my major, which you might consider to be "design" and social science of the built environment.
