>>7954669
Politics and religion.

>le image processing girl

We talk about how much of an autistic you are OP

In fact, that's what everyone talks about when you're not around.

I generally avoid talking to them unless it's talking shop. I can count on one hand the number of professors i've had who were actually solid people (as in, I would have a beer with them). Most of them, while decent teachers, wind up being pretty disgusting people if I try to talk with them about non-school related things.

>>7954669
Professor here.
I have had conversations about philosophy politics and science with the more intelligent students. A few have become fast friends because of our conversations. And I've managed to bang a few cuties by using big, impressive words.

The less intellectually-gifted usually just ask about extra credit.

Idk, maybe that was a little harsh. Mostly just people who seem like they have some serious insecurity/ego issues, or who are pathologically anal retentive.

I think I said that primarily because there's this one prof I have in mind. Seemed like a nice enough guy at first, but he's been slowly creeping the shit out of me more and more, and can just be an overall annoying person. Brilliant lecturer, probably one of the best i've had, but a real fucking weirdo outside of class.

>>7954669
Work, jokes about work, his family, my ambitions/career plan, random political rants, rants about retarded undergrads etc.

How old are you? Are you actually a professor or do you just have a lectureship and call yourself one like a faggot?

I've noticed that almost everyone in the pure fields are like this.

>>7955441
>Are you actually a professor
Yes.

>>7954669
Honestly, at least in math, being socially awkward is fairly normal. Just be awkward and most professors won't even think about it.

>>7954669
How shit the Norwegian education system is.

>>7955449
And you fucked your students? I don't know whether to be impressed or creeped out.

>>7955338
I once caught my professor accidentally glancing at a girls tits while she was asking a question in lecture. I say accidentally because when she raised her hand, he turned to look at her, but his eyes went straight to her chest, and I saw him do the wide eyed "woah, shake it off" face.

I don't blame him, she has some rockin tits.

>>7955444
I've noticed the opposite. Serious researchers tend to be humble beyond belief. It's only the third year students that seem to think science is a form of transcendental knowledge.

>>7955558
I'm the guy who posted the original comment (not the guy you replied to). I've noticed that the people i'm talking about, are all associate professors who haven't published in at least 10 years.

>>7954669
Usually just about math stuff, sometimes I have bantz with them.

>>7955338
You sound like a typical delusional professor.

>>7954669

Everything. We text back and forth talking about random shit.

Last conversation was about the Belgium bombings. My proff made a joke that would considered islamophobic.

Why haven't you got a based proff, faggots?

Polite phrases about weather, travel, etc. Bantz if they're that kind of person.

[Full] profs. are just like other people, but with more doublethink to balance "science" with academic survival.

Most are shit, some are ok.

I tried google translate: "pathologically anal retentive" and I still don't understand whatt is meant even when I looked the definition of each word.

Back again.
Student invited me over to her house, her friend left and I ate her pussy until she poured cum. Said she's never climaxed that hard.

She's still keeping that 51 on her midterm.

Good.

I'm completely fine with faculty fucking their students if they don't sacrifice their ethical principles to do it.

Enjoy your undergrad tail anon.

>>7959974
I call bullshit. Which university, which department, which term, which class, which student?

>>7960204
What an incredibly dumb question.

>>7960211
No, he's not dumb. He's baiting you to spurt out info of free pussy, but you're too smart to fall for the trap. This question is for dumbtard and you're not.

>>7960118
I am not a grad student, ta, or anything of the sort. The school's website has me listed on the Faculty page as Professor.

>>7960169
I once changed a student's grade after sleeping with her, not because she asked but because I was trying to be a nice guy. I've always regretted it. Never again.

>>7960204
You can't possibly be serious.

Why don't you talk about science and mathematics with your professors?
Why would you waste their time by talking about the fucking weather?

>>7954767
this, even if they're not disgusting they're usually fucking AUTISTS

>>7960283
This might blow your mind, but life isn't all about intellectual advancement

>>7960240
What grants are you applying for this year?

>>7954669
You or them?

Hang around in science long enough and you'll hit the full spectrum. I say let them come to you. If they're naturally chummy, it should be apparent. Otherwise, just talk science.

>>7960311
How do autists get to become professors when it apparently requires skills in making connections?
Or is it just tenure that takes a lot of networking?

>>7960329
There's a reason they say autism is a spectrum. Definitely gotta be social to make it in academia. But it's a realm much different than everday socializing.
>showing off your skills in science
>lots of technical conversation
>lots of email collaboration

>>7960329
>skills in making connections
This means something entirely different in academia. "Socialising" in academia is 99% talking about work. Most people I know made their connections in their PhD by working with a well respected supervisor. Impress through science -> publish together -> lectureship -> professor

The guy that taught my introductory abstract algebra course was fond of a particular brand of brandy, so I started bringing him bottles as a gift. We would sit in his office drinking the aforementioned brandy while working through various problems I had questions about. Amazingly, at least half of the problems on the exams were identical to the ones discussed during the late afternoon drinking sessions. Good times...

I usually ask questions about the material, either clarifications or related concepts that weren't covered in class. Lately I've been thinking about what I want do my research in so I've been asking about their research or what is a "hot" item to research. They love talking about research because that's what their career is built around.

Junior college was different though. I had an organic chemistry teacher that was a total bro. We would watch funny clips on the internet and he would mess with students in the lab.

I was an adjunct for my state uni teaching undergraduate biochem, left to pursue other opportunities
To be honest, we know you want an LOR for whatever grad school you're applying too. Also, to really get a conversation going with your professor just ask about their research and its progress (if bio/Chem/sic professor). We like to feel as if our work is worthwhile and its an ego boost for many to have someone interested in their work.
It's usually best to keep it short though, especially with undergrad professors as they teach >400 kids in your subject matter and the names that stand out are the students who score exceptionally well and are engaged in lecture and lab, and if you supplement this with small talk you'll get your LOR

>>7955338
successful thread hijack is successful, well done faggot
>>7954669
what you discuss with your profs depends on what you want to accomplish with your schooling. if you want to do graduate studies you should get to know as much of your faculty as possible; learn what their research interests are, ask for advice with what you have trouble with in studying, etc. being acquainted with the faculty never hurt anyone, and even if you only plan on doing undergrad, you might learn about career opportunities.

networking in university seems to be one of the keys to success

Another adjunct here

Surprised that professor is fucking his students... I definitely could but never did, I teach at a small school and EVERYONE would know immediately. Some people have been fired for it.

I would consider it if the student graduated or was a grad student outside my department, but... wow.
