Oldest Entry of the Athens Edition, Rate My Professor

Socrates -- Philosophy -- Total Ratings:5 -- Overall Quality: 1.9 -- Easiness: 1.0 -- Hot? (Not)

Professor Socrates doesn't like to lecture. His whole class is discussion and he makes you talk. Keeps us past the bell. Doesn't realize we have lives outside of class.

Cool guy, but maybe a bit too cool if you know what I mean. He made me uncomfortable sometimes. Plays favorites. Avoid.

Dr. Socrates is a joke. I'm only taking him because philosophy is required for my major. You don't learn anything if all you do is talk. I don't care what the other students think, I just want to know what I need for the final. When I told him this, he got all snippy and said "You know nothing but the fact of your own ignorance." Whatever.

He got tenure before they made everyone start publishing. He never writes anything so the other profs tell you he's a lightweight and dead wood. Won't shut up about his wife in class, makes me wonder why he ever got married. Take him only if you're a philosophy major.

Came to the tree on the first day and said all serious-like "The unexamined life is not worth living," but took hemlock before the term was over and didn't refund our tuition. Professor Plato took over his courses, but he's SO different it's not fair. Thinks he's living in a cave and gives me the willies. Shoulda taken PHIL 101 at Athens CC instead of here. Learn from my mistake.

I really laughed at this one. It makes me wonder sometimes what my students would say if there were a "Rate my English teacher". The thought makes me laugh, considering some of them have a sense of humor.
