09/04/06: Jalapeno'd!

The bad news is that I made it to Rate My Professor. The good news is that I got jalapeno'd! My ratings stink for the most part (except for the jalapeno person and someone else who thought I rocked). The ironic thing is that I can almost pick out the students who trashed me. One claimed that I didn't return any of my emails (yes, darling, because you were emailing the WRONG ADDRESS!) and another that I sucked because she should have earned an A- but I gave her a B+ (yes, dear one, because you didn't PARTICIPATE in the online class!).

*sigh*

Does anyone take those ratings seriously?

09/01: "I'm so confused..."

Email from Stupent:

I am having some difficulty with this week's journal entry. The question does not coincide with the chapters to me. So therefore i answered the question the best way I knew how but I do not have two pages. I am confused because each entry should be two pages and single spaced, according to the syllabus. Please contact me when you can. I have been short on a couple of the other journal entries. I do not want this to affect my grade.

Reply from Instructor:

Hi Student,

You wrote "I am confused because each entry should be two pages and single spaced, according to the syllabus." But you don't tell me what is confusing about that. It seems fairly clear to me. Let me know what is actually confusing you about that and I will be happy to clarify.

Signed,
Professor
