Hi Thomas, When I get students like this I try to spend some time with them talking about career options. I encourage them to explore other career choices that may target their interests better. I work with my college students services office to help them with their exploration efforts. I try to encourage them and get them excited about my field if they are going to stay in the class because I want them to do well and I don't want to have to continually deal with their negative attitudes. If they get too bad I will remove them from the class and refer them to the main office for assistance. I don't want them to spoil the class for others. Gary
