A generally useless discussion section for a class at Princeton University. Large classes meet once a week in precepts, in addition to lecture. Precepts used to be taught by professors, but the quality has declined and they're now generally useless and taught by grad students.
Student 1: "Hey where are you heading?"
Student 2: "I have to go to my stupid, pointless Environmental Science precept."
