"Okay, you can’t just leave it at that! Do tell!"

Well, the prof. was a complete Wm. Ayers wannabe, his lectures were not about the subject but about promoting his political agenda and brainwashing 20-year-old students (I am much older) -- the guy refused to allow recorders in his class, by the way, leading me to believe he had had TROUBLE with his words coming back to him in the past. He made sexist comments about Sarah Palin and after I confronted him about it after class, I finaly went to the department head yesterday afternoon. I laid it all out, all of it, and gave the guy quotes, and found out I was not the first complaint, but would most certainly be the last, and the arrogant Fulbright scholar seeking a job at Texas Tech is wasting his time! WOO HOO!!!! You cannot KNOW how thrilling it was. The dept. head is actually putting me -- mid semester -- into a replacement class with a different professor who has agreed to do a guided study so that I don't have to finish with this creep. He said they're going to seat an auditor in the class for the other students because this a-hole has to finish the semester, but that they are taking measures to correct the problem as much as possible with this auditor. So there you have it! I couldn't believe I was being listened to. Texas Tech is clearly trying to promote fair-minded professors who are there to teach, not preach. It was a great day for education.
