i don't see how this type of schoolwork would be reasonable in any way.
i don't really understand how writing essays of 1500 words is gonna somehow contribute to what i learn in this class.
and if the point was to just write, then i'd gladly write dozens of much shorter things.
i don't see the point in limiting a student's creativity by forcing an arbitary word limit on things.
im almost positive that being able to express yourself within a limited framework is something virtuous.
