Cultural Note
University lectures in Poland are often large and formal, but they're also legendary settings for romance. Passing notes during a boring 'wykład,' sharing notes with an attractive classmate, or meeting for coffee after class are classic Polish university love stories. The phrase 'nie dawaj mi wykładu' (don't lecture me) is also used in relationship arguments.
