Student: Sir, question!
Professor: Are you sure that’s a question you cannot answer yourself?
Student: asks question
Professor: What do you think? I feel that the answer is obvious, so I am throwing it back to you.
Professor: The outcome now is either pass or fail. If you are going to fail, might as well fail fighting!
Professor after student presents his slides for consultation: I won’t tell you the answer. This is the kind of student work that annoys me. Sorry.
Ah the perils of learning. I’m sure these will all be funny in the future. For now, the man impresses and scares me in equal measure.
