7 Types Of Professors You May Have In College

Being in college is a completely different pace from high school. You get some of the best and worst teachers during your four years of experience and you know rate my professor is going to hear about it. Here are 7 types of professors you may encounter:

1. The Super Frazzled and Disorganized

This type of professor will wander in to your class two minutes late soaking wet because he/she forgot their umbrella. They will go on to say it had something to do with traffic, yet they come in late every day. Not that you care because it wastes ten extra minutes of class for them to get their shit together. This type of professor made a syllabus in the beginning of the semester, yet has to teach anything that is relative to the syllabus. You all kind of sit there confused and wonder how this person was hired as a professor.

2. The Comedian

This professor tries to crack jokes about everything in the lesson and all he/she gets is a few pity chuckles. It's painfully awkward that this professor is the only one laughing at his/her jokes and then will make remarks like, "Anyone alive out there?" No, we actually are going to do a group sacrifice if you keep making horrible jokes.

3. The Foreigner

This professor just made the bare minimum English that was required to become a teacher. This person probably teaches calculus, some kind of high science, or a language. Everyone in the class sits there and gives uncomfortable side glances to one another like, "Can you understand anything this dude is saying or is it just me?" You make excuses to your parents why you're failing, saying that this person literally cannot communicate, but they still blame it on your study habits.

4. The I Don't Care

This person probably drops every curse word in the book and on the first day everyone was so surprised, but now everyone is comfortable with the F-word incorporated in multiple sentences in class. The professor will probably bump your 89.5 up to an A- because he/she is really dope. They talk about their past experiences of camping out at music festivals and being a Dead Head. If you were gonna get drunk with any of your teachers it would definitely be this one.

5. The Stick Up Their A**

You dread going to this class because this professor always calls students out for texting or doing other things on their computer. You actually have to pay attention and this professor will most definitely not round up your grade to an A or accept your doctor's note as a reason for missing class. This teacher thinks and expects that everyone does the reading and bases all the exams on the reading. You're always questioning why you scheduled this professor or are thinking about the rate my professor review you're going to write.

6. The Narcissist

This professor will send out multiple emails that buying the textbook is NOT optional, and how if you don't buy it you will fail. As you do more research, you realize that the professor wrote the damn textbook. This person will drop hints in class on where he/she graduated or the multiple thesis's he/she completed. We get it dude, you're obsessed with yourself.

7. The Hot One

Everyone in class will come out of class and talk about what this professor was wearing or how he ~totally~ made eye contact with you today. Girls will solely schedule this class to admire him and going to his office hours is ALWAYS crowded.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
