Each university is different...
Each time, when I am new at a university, I ask a lot of questions. Those who know only this one university immediately believe that I have never before given a lecture. Otherwise, I would know how a lecture and its exams are organized. But I tell you: The universities are all different, just as their restaurants are...
I just learned that at the university where I teach for the first time this summer, I must bring my own VGA cable with me. Hey, this is new! Is a VGA cable a normal teaching equipment? To bring along my laptop is standard. At one university, we had to bring our own remote control for the beamer, something that I did not know before. Here, it is the VGA cable. OK, this costs 1€ at Ebay. I hope that it will arrive here before the first lecture, otherwise I must improvise. Well, at least, I was told so. It might also happen that they forget to say something so self-evident.
