Systems engineers are highly equipped to deal with complexity, which inheres in large,technology-driven projects. In any project, the capabilities and needs of the system to bedesigned are balanced with the needs of those who will be using and paying for it. Stevens etal.40 suggest that insufficient attention to both sets of requirements is responsible for moresystem failures than are flaws in the technology. In balancing these paired sets of requirements,a landslide of information must be sorted, prioritized, managed, and applied accurately; the riskof either design or system failure must be evaluated and weighed

Nothing is more annoying to a student if a teacher habitually comes late toclass or rushes through the material at the end, while he use class time to tell his long "warstories". In fact, coming early to class opens informal discussions with the students. It also letsstudents pause their troubles. Efed gives full attention to the students who have problems in the course. Although manyof the cases are not emergencies, a few deserve Efed’s full attention. Once, I had a student whowanted to withdraw from my course in the last month of the semester.
