Jenny, my Botany professor keeps one in laboratory just so everyone in class can poke it. It's his pride and joy. You got robbed of hilarious plant jokes.

My worst professor was my Calc III professor, who would frequently change numbers in the books examples so he could do the problems. Also, each one of my tests was misgraded by at least a full letter grade.

I took my Pet TickleMe Plant to my Biology class. I figured my professor would love show off the plant to the class and how it MOVED and closes it leaves when Tickled? Maybe he would even explain how it does that and why. Well he said never heard of the plant and didnt even give me a chance to show how it interacts.He just said no plant moves when you tickle it, at which point everyone laughed. Then last week he saw the plant on CSI NY and now guess who got the last laugh. I found it at http://www.ticklemeplant.com Check out the video if you don't believe its real either!.

I would say that I fit two of these categories (3 and 4), but I get terrific reviews from my students. I only had one student that did not give me a good review and that person claimed that I would not help them, even though they never came for help. Which by the way is quite typical of students, they expect you to teach them everything they should have learned all 2 weeks before the final.

Anyway, I would have to disagree with these "watch-outs", because I myself have had instructors that fit many of these categories and I felt they were probably my best instructors.

A few years ago I was taking Cal A with this guy that barely knew the material himself. We would be patiently writing down example problems in our notes and he would get to the end and look at his notes, and his answer on the board, and say something like "That's not right. Where did I go wrong?" Or sometimes we would have other students in the class correcting him as we went. It was ridiculous! Needless to say, I bailed out early. There was no way I was going to struggle through that class because he couldn't tell a derivative from a denominator.

Many, many years ago I attended a community college and I had the same professor for Psychology and Inter-Personal Relationships. I used to catch him checking me out, but I thought he did that to everyone, including the guys! So, he asked me after class if I would work after class for him, doing some filing, typing, grading

papers and other misc. secretarial duties. He usually wasn't even there when I was working, as we had two different schedules. However, one day he was in his office with me, as I was finishing up for the day. As I was ready to leave, he called me back and asked me to give him a hug! What? He's my professor, I was thinking! Why would this guy want a hug? What about a handshake?? Anyway, naive, stupid me gave him a hug. It wasn't the typical friendly hug, where it would only last a few seconds. No, this hug was something more romantic than your average hug. I could tell as I was breaking away from the hug that there was a kiss about to come from his side so I turned my head the opposite way.. That way, there was no way he could kiss me! There were more hints to show that he was "hot for student," but I didn't let him get that far. I stopped working as his secretary and moved on.. I was only a 19yo young lady, while he was a 48yo educated pervert!!!
