One of my professors usually responds within ten minutes if you email him at a reasonable time, otherwise early the next day. I'm really worried about him. :ohdear:

He up for tenure or a new assistant professor?

Guys, I've already linked the greatest Christmas song that mankind can produce:


If the combination of rolling drums, trumpets, and wah-wah pedal doesn't get you into the Christmas spirit then you are a grinch. Possibly a dick as well, but definitely a grinch.

He even sent out a feedback survey earlier in the semester to ask about his teaching and improvements he could make and insists on grading everything himself despite having TAs :stare:

How are Americans stereotyped in other media. If a German sitcom has an American show up, does he speak German with an American accent? Do other countries imitate nonnative speakers speaking their language like we do?
