The Ultimate Showdown: Peak verses College Profs

GOOD NEWS! You do not have to be intimidated by college profs.  The professors can choose what levels they teach so the ones that teach the intro classes you will take your freshman year are the ones that want to deal with your confusion.  CERTAINLY these teachers expect you to be serious about class and show up on time, HOWEVER they are still humans and do not actually eat children.  ALTHOUGH college professors are traditionally portrayed as mean and vindictive, Thespians are generally portrayed as geeky losers and we all know how true that is.  THUS don't even bother being intimidated by your profs because they will just think it is mildly amusing and then tell you to get a grip.

Also, just so you know, Peak teachers are more similar to college profs than you may think.  Case in point, the stereotypical prof would be:
- Strict: Flanhofer
- Hard: Flanhofer
- Challenging: Flanhofer
- SUPER knowledgeable about their subject: Flanhofer
- A über grader: Flanhofer

Luckily, actual college profs are all of those things but are also:
- Hilarious: Flanhofer
- Approachable: Flanhofer
- Innovative: Flanhofer
- Entertaining when they lecture: Flanhofer
- Very willing to be nicknamed: Flanny Pants

Oh would you look at that!  It looks like you already have experience with a college professor!  Shocking!  Just spend some time around Flanhofer and you'll be ready to deal with your profs, no problem.

    1. I didn't forget! It worked better for my thesis this way. The whole point is that this structure is adaptable! Also, I never actually got around to proving that thesis anyway so you should really be correcting me there :)
