I Think I Might Have an Aspie Professor

Post Reply New Topic

So I went into my sociology class today, and the professor struck me as particularly aspie. I think he shifted his gaze away when I looked at him (to signify paying attention) during his brief lecture and when I took the handout (a syllabus) before class started. His voice was poorly modulated and rather flat. He used a few "big words" like pedagogical. He already showed signs of an unusual sense of humor. He didn't have much facial expression. He might be one of us!

'little professor syndrome' ... 'big professor syndrome'?

Is pedagogical a big word?
Not for me, but that may be because of my heavy heredity : dad mum and grandpa were teachers. And guess what I want to be?

Wow!

As a lit professor, I am acutely aware (and "acutely" is a small word) that Computer Programming and being a College Professor are the number one Aspie careers on a professional level.

It strikes me that a college professor can relate to subject matter more than students and function well. What you describe sounds a lot like how students describe me.

One of us. One of us.
