Professors

When we were talking about sex vs gender in class , I thought about the Womens' Studies class I took last year at Stony brook. A lot of the images that we reviewed were ones that I have already seen and it made me realize how much I actually learned from a class and carried on with me.

I stopped to think about how much a professor makes or breaks a course. Anything that I have learned and remembered over the years, tend to be from classes where I had laid back professors that treated their students as equals. It shows in my grades as well, for I always do well in classes that I actually want to sit through.

Being at Stony Brook has been difficult because I am use to having a small class size where the professor knows everyones name. That's why I was surprised to find such a good professor that taught the course. He made us want to learn because we felt that he wanted to teach it. He wasn't there because it was his job and it was what he had to do in order to get paid. I feel like so many professors make it seem like they are held at gun point to be there and forget that we are all humans.
