Did you even read the post? The author is hardly freaking out, never worries about passing classes, and never once claims that his lectures are boring. He's simply asking his fellow students to respect each other and the classroom, which is perfectly reasonable.

Furthermore, I know that shitting on universities is en vogue, but give me a break. Perhaps you are the one who "did it wrong" and were bored because you chose the wrong university, or the wrong field of study? Or, just maybe, different people learn in different ways?

The author doesn't claim his lectures are boring. He claims that his classmates "whip out a phone mid class to text friends or browse Facebook", which is boredom behavior. So while the author may or may not be bored in class, his classmates obviously are.

And yes, "freaking out" was the wrong way to phrase "so overly concerned/bored that writing a blog post about the issue was necessary".
