Re: Is it right for a professor to say...

He was referring to his other classes more so than the one I was
in..he was saying how the students keep on acting disruptive,
talking over him..and not concentrating overall and that he was
planning on failing half of his students in a different class.
But honestly...there ARE students who WANT to learn. I hate when
he generalizes and acts as if EVERY student is like that. And
even if you quietly talk without being loud he looks at you
madly and says, "ARE YOU DONE...LET ME WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE
FINISHED" (just like in hs LOL) even when you're not making
noise...he is acting so paranoid. And he keeps on saying how
hehates this country and people act like pigs. (I'm not going to
mention the country I'm in..i got to an international school
though) well then he should LEAVE.
