Profs’ Kids

OK, folks, if you have a child who:

– thinks it’s OK to miss weeks of class and then blame that on the professor who failed to communicate to him that the course begins when the academic calendar says it should;

– is likely to offer the professor advice on how the course should be modified to suit his  individual needs;

– is convinced that professors should be on campus 8 hours a day every day;

– considers it appropriate to lecture his profs on what he perceives as the course’s shortcomings;

– believes that it makes sense to tell his profs, “Well, my mother structures her summer courses in a different way”

then maybe it’s not the best idea in the world to place him in the university where you teach. Especially, if you can send him to absolutely any college in the state for free.
