Poll of the Day > I've fallen down the rabbit hole of professors calling out students

(+) Yeah! (+)

The first one was the guy calling out 1/3 of his students for cheating on a midterm

The next was a Cornell prof freaking out because some asshole yawned

Now theres some goof telling protesting students that hes gonna expel and arrest them

Its great

It's certainly enjoyable in person at times when professors do that. Sometimes they go too far but most of them never do.

My favorite was a girl who called our teacher racist because she was failing. She was loud and obnoxious as hell. She was carrying on, making a scene. Teacher just calmly said "no, you're failing because you haven't bothered to turn any assignments in." She shut right up

Don't known if the teacher removed her or she dropped the class because I never saw her again.

one of the last courses I took was really weird. I think there was some kind of argument between the students and prof that I completely missed, because after a certain date the class became extremely uncomfortable, and the prof would lecture to a certain group of students really angrily, it was so weird. sometimes he would even go and sit right in front of that group and ramble on to them specifically about weird shit.

the awkwardness would go away if I asked him a question and he would calm down and talk to me normally. but all the way up to the final it was super awkward, and the final was in particular really weird, with not a single word said by anyone the entire time. prof came in, handed out booklets, sat down, we did the test, handed them in and left. not even sure if he said we could start except maybe with a hand gesture or something.

I went to a community college for my AA in info tech and had 2 crazy teachers there.

The first was really cool actually, she was teaching a western civ course, and never once even mentioned the book, or anything historical. The entire semester she just related her experiences traveling through france. It was really interesting actually. I did my final on the industrial revolution and the raise of computers lol, got an A, even though I pretty much just wrote about computer in a history class hehe.

But that was nothing compared to my Visual Basic teacher, that dude was freaking insane crazy. He was asian and so was 99.5 percent of the class (2 of us were not I believe out of like 60+ people). The teacher was a MASSIVE sailor moon fan lol (he had to be in his 40's) and if he was not going on about sailor moon, he spent his time talking about all the best places to eat in Hawaii. He at least did cover most of this while using presentations that showed what we were supposed to be learning etc.

To top it all off though he did the review at the end of the class (full 2 classes long) in an asian language (no clue what it was). I guess the 2 non-asian students didn't count (also can't imagine they all spoke the same language but whatever).

Had one other teacher in community college who was awesome, she taught our theater arts program, and started every class with a 10 minute backrub (everyone gave backrubs to each other). We all ended up performing 15 minute skits by the end of the class as a team (of two.....I did a scene from pulp fiction) and it was required to watch Caberatte performed at the college (which was my first play and I really enjoyed it). Great class and teacher.
