It seems to me that I have periodically known people who like the association towards something maybe even more than the thing itself.
I have had professors that speak with a sense of authority, as if the words proceeding forth from their qualified, experienced lips were a quintessential experience in scholarship. I have had other professors that spew words that are evidences of intense scholarship. The former reject a students verbal reference to a popular media during an in-class discussion, only to moments later stoop to equally banal behavior. With these one has no way of knowing what will be looked upon with favor and what will not. It seems one is drawn in to a posture of trying to please this professor who sets the standard. The other professors seem to be more interested in the information, and less in the image.
Have you had professors like these?
