If you have any further conversations with this professor or if he says this type of stuff in class regularly, record it on your cell phone(just tuck it into a shirt pocket and it will record just fine) and play it for the department head and/or your advisor His behavior is incredibly unprofessional and childish. He should not be permitted to be in a classroom teaching students.
GO TO THE DEPT HEAD ASAP!!!
I have his exam today, folks. Wish me luck.
@Buttergreen I’m surprised you have taken any actions against him besides visiting him, which was ineffective and not the best move…
What a crazy Friday. I had his exam this morning. Before he gave us the exam, he ranted to the class about how we did not understand him. Crazy guy.
This lacks common sense. Why didn’t you snap a picture of him and go to the department admin and ask who he is? Why are you making a big deal about the syllabus at the end of the semester? I lean with others that this is a fake post. Four pages of this non problem?
@buttergreen: why have you not taken any action against him like everyone on here has been telling you to do in the past 3 pages?
Drama llama.
Is this a social science class? A friends older sibling took a class and the professor just sat there in the back of the room and no one knew who it was. He didn’t get up until people began to leave as an experiment on the students. This could potentially be the same thing.
Is this charade of a thread still going on???
^agree. This has become the latest “where’s Waldo” thread on college confidential.
Had a busy couple of days. I think I will speak to the department head tomorrow, most folks are still in town since it;s the holidays. This is not a “Where’s Waldo” thread. I was busy.
What’s the point, since you’ve now presumably learned his name, received the syllabus, and earned whatever grade you’ll get?
This is not a fake post. One of my friends snapped a photo and we will try to go to the head of the department tomorrow. The department was closed today. This is not a fake post, these things happen in colleges. We were told by the professor not to go the department head, because it was an abrogation of duty. Not all professors like when you disobey them. This is America, and things like these happen in colleges.
Sue, he still did not provide us with his name. I’m still waiting on the grade.
So nowhere on your student portal and/or your online course management site (Blackboard, Canvas, what have you) does it show your professor’s name? And nowhere on the department’s website does it show his photo and name?
Sorry, still skeptical.
Why not just post the name of the school, the class, and the meeting time?
Doesn’t show on portal in my college. You can’t be skeptical. As I told you, my friend and I will be going there later today when the department opens.
Ooo, the season finale is coming up! I can’t wait to find out the professor’s name!
I’m betting my chips that the professor turns out to be OP’s father, and this dramatic scene will ensue where he has to battle him. Any other speculation?
I’ve been enjoying this series so far, a bit repetitive and nonsensical, but it has an interesting goofy cast, charming in it’s own right.
OP, “You can’t be skeptical” “This is not a fake post (×2)”
This thread gives me more headaches than my calc class
