That's how it SHOULD be, anonymous.

Use these opportunities to raise your power level.

Professors earn it. Time to step up your game, boy.

My history professor's power level was off the charts.

The student should never be more intelligent and competent than their mentor. At least during their education.

Lying sack of shit
>>
>>9446495
i have emailed questions to my professors many times, and they always answer with a thorough response
>>
>>9446379
It's your professor. Of course he knows more shit. It's his job. He's been doing this for ages.

You are not the first pseud to ask him a question.

You must post the question
>>
>>9446685
this, opie. i am genuinely intrigued.

back when i was a teenager who just smoked weed for the first time, i emailed noam chomsky about his debate with alan dershowitz and the future of lincoln-douglas style debates in a culture of increasing rhetorical hysteria. it seemed to me that shaming your opponent on their opposition to (((commonly-held ideologies))) and shrieking the loudest would automatically win you the debate.

thankfully, i was too stoned to send the email.

>the feel when in your final year you point out a glaring mistake to your professor and he resorts to "it's a semantics argument"

Yeah no shit loads of stuff is semantics, the thing is you go for the efficient definitions, not the needlessly inconsistent ones.

That's a dedicated professor. I honestly don't see anything wrong anon

don't really give a shit desu
>>
>>9447388
it's cool, just teasing :)
>>
>>9447354
So you got an informative and kindly worded response with an encouraging conclusion and you think you have a good reason to be upset?
>>
>>9447319
Holy fuck, this is the final nail in the coffin. You're a pseud beyond measure. Instead of making the same hypothesis three times with some quotes, you would've come off less ridiculous if you would have just sent:
"hai big P,
big fan of ur work much aprecc8ed
anyways u think scientology and language and vocal cord parasitus cannot exist w/out the other?

Love,
Chad"

Fucking kill yourself. How can Professor Layton be even remotely kind to your sorry ass?

Anyways, a good thread nonetheless.

Love,
Dad

>>9447406
That's because he's a pseud and cannot handle that someone is factually more knowledgable than him.

of course i didn't think i was more knowledgeable or intelligent that my professor...

Your professor uses language to make the idea he's talking about clearer, while you seem to shroud it in some convoluted prose. It looks like you want to be perceived as more knowledgeable than you are when really it just makes your email confusing- even to the prof. who clearly knows more than you about your questions than you.

Why'd you do this anon?
>>
>>9446379
Never had this experience. I've always been smarter than my professors, especially the females and minorities
>>
>>9446379
Would you be happy with a professor below your own power level?

As long as you view it as a learning experience, there's no hard in having a professor that corrects your errors and helps you on the road to your own advancement.
