Maybe it's just the uni I went to. The largest class in the entire uni 
was, like, 70 people or something.

I remember when we did object-oriented analysis and design, we were all 
ordered to go buy the UML book. I thought "hey, I'll just get it from 
the library". I found the shelf... and it was bare.

Two weeks later, I tried to get the book, and there was at least 30 
copies. But then, as I quickly discovered, the book was useless anyway! ;-)
