Vent!

Have you ever had a professor who is just unnecessarily rude and condescending. I have a professor who is the absolute worst professor I have ever had. She has no idea how to teach and doesn't even know the material well. Every time she sends an e-mail its not quite clear what it means or what she is talking about. This weekend she sent out an e-mail about the mid-term and I responded with a question about it and got a snippy, rude reply. I feel like when I'm spending THOUSANDS of dollars to go to a school I should get more than rude, unhelpful answers to my questions. I will probably be dropping this class and writing a letter to the head of the department about how horrible the experience was with that professor (I know several students have complained already).

Ugh...I'm so frustrated and had to vent somewhere!

  • My economics professor is just like that. I got a bad mid-term grade, and I went to her asking how I could improve it... she told me I probably wasn't trying hard enough and simply needed to try harder... excuse me?! ... I take notes, I outline the chapters, I study!  Ugh! A tutor reference or study guide would have been an answer I expected but "try harder" just made me livid! I know exactly how you feel!

  • I can sympathize with you completely! I'm in graduate school and dealing similar situations. I want to scream at them that I'm getting a doctorate, so clearly I'm somewhat intelligent if I got this far. It's so nice to know I'm not alone!
