I just finished taking the DB course here, and am waiting for exam results. Our lecturer was of Greek origin, and as such had an accent. Further his delivery could be a bit monotone. Those two things, which aren't really big deciders of whether a course is good or bad, drowned out any legitimate issues with the course.
Because he was monotone students started calling him "slow" whenever he tried to collect his thoughts and present things us students obviously hadn't quite grasped yet. He would take 5 seconds about 7 times per lecture to look at the slides to do this.
The point is, you would think CS students were a more logically inclined bunch. Here, at least, that is not the case. They are horrible and vindictive if they get the chance to be so. Even people writing longer, well-structured response to evaluations might be completely off-base on what is happening, or be swept up in the meme (used in the academic sense here).
