Any college student here?

[CAGED whiteman]

i was wondering if you guys or gals find your professors to be rather liberal? it could just be my major but some of these fuckers are starting to piss me off and i dont want to argue with them since it could have an effect on my grade.

 

[decem]

they're liberal because they're educated you moron..

I just keep my mouth shut and keep raking in the A's. Once I graduate, its a different story. Then I will make history!

they're liberal because they're educated you moron..

If they're so educated, why are they stuck in a go-nowhere job teaching university courses?

Those who can, do.
Those who can't, teach.

Moron.

so true. proven fact in the military.

umm most professors actually do research and stuff...at least the technical ones, dunno about english professors and shit. all my engineering professors were doing research in cutting edge areas.

Since when do engineering professors and physics professors etc... argue with students? They teach fact - if you don't like it, leave. The only professors who argue with students are English, Philosophy, etc... professors - and on some occassions, computer programming professors who can barely speak English and barely know the material themselves. Those are the ones who suffer from the "Those who can't, teach." philosophy. If they had the skills to do something productive with their lives that would be meaningful to society, they would. Instead, they sit there and act as "filler" material for students' course schedules and bring the universities undeserved income. I have learned so few things in my philosophy and English courses that I'm shocked they actually still teach that crap.

I used to sleep during all my English classes and my professors would never say SHIT because they knew I had no business being in there.

but bear in mind, what u say i totally grant, when it comes to english professors and shit like that.

it is u who are the moron apparently...??

Perhaps you should listen to one of those English professors - you may yet learn a thing about grammar and reading comprehension.

i go to a fairly prestigious private school, and you'd be surprised just how many of my friends driving benz and beamers have professors for parents, so you can't tell me they don't make any money. Second, some people just really like to teach. I have some incredibly smart teachers at my school, some of the best in the country in fact, who could easily land other jobs which pay way better, but rather choose to stay at my school and educate us. I realize in whatever school you went to, maybe they taught there because that was the only job they could get, but most of the teachers I know are incredibly bright, kind, helpful people I've ever met, who I have huge amounts of respect for.
ex. my calc teacher. He gave up being the principal of the school to just teacher, because he chooses to teach a full schedule (not one break... ever) and never complains because he's doing it for us. This man, I have endless respect for, and besides being brilliant, he's got everything he needs to become a professor or some other MUCH higher paying job, but he stays.
so "those who can, do. those who can't, teach" is the biggest load of bullshit.

Very well. In that case, English and Philosophy professors are supremely intelligent and have a vast knowledge of important information that students will find useful every day in life. Their worth to society is unmeasurable.

Computer programming teachers who regurgitate code from the book, teach absolutely nothing about algorithm development or program design, and regularly extend project due dates in response to excessive student whining are also very meaningful figures in a university.

All because you said so... since, you know, me saying things and justiying them means that I know "jack shit," while you saying things and providing no justification whatsoever means that you are right - all because you're decem.

You are guilty of the same crime of which you accuse me, yet you do a more effective job at making yourself look like an ass.

Congratulations.

you still don't know jack shit. your logic is always flawed. you're a little 19 y/o kid with no life experience who is of average intellect. you think simply because you come on an internet chat board and use proper grammar and punctuation that you argument holds more weight than others, when indeed it does not. your argument regarding college level professors and their aptitude, intellect, and capabilities as well as your statement on their motives to teach instead of work in their field is completely off base. what makes it worse is that you're this little moronic, peon, know-it-all who actually knows jack shit, knows jack shit about the work force and what it entails, knows jack shit about what other duties and activities various college professors are privvy to, and knows jack shit about life and the world in general, and as such, your arguments and points are instantly written off as invalid, and rightly so.
