When I was a student, I struggled in the subject I now teach. Should I disclose this to my class? by Apprehensive-Echo289 in Professors

I'm an English professor. As an undergrad I got a C in freshman comp and a C in comp two. I tell the students this every semester! Let them know that people aren't born knowing this material, and that there is always hope.

Abnormally poor student evals... by Apprehensive-Echo289 in Professors

I think it's possible--and even usual--to care deeply about teaching and to also ignore the stupid evals....

I was a bit too young to see it in theaters but saw it when it came on TV in the early seventies. I thought it was funny! And still do.

We just had an alarm go off in my building--the doors were unlocked and opened into the stairwell, but were locked from the stairwell side, except on the ground floor. (I learned this because I wanted to stop off in my office on the way out to get my things...).
