I wouldn't say the critiquing we were subjected to was contemptuous. The
only time I saw that was when there was something personal about it, and
that was really very rare. It could be harsh in that the instructors were
trying very hard to make us understand what would be expected of us "out
there," and well, college students can be pretty dense. All I was trying to
say is that sometimes criticism that seems harsh can be a very effective way
to learn -- especially when it makes you defend your work.
