apparently this prof has been assuming everything I say is an argument bc I said I like to argue on the “so who are you” quiz from the first day of class, up to and including “what last name do you go by”. like. I’m not kidding. she felt that I was interrogating her about her name. because I asked if she preferred the version on her website, her coursepack, or her thesis. you know, so I could call her by her preferred name. another hostile interrogation: “oh, it looks like you talk about women a lot in your thesis, and have a lot of women on the syllabus. do you teach this class more as like, minority lit? cool.” what’s an argument? an exchange of words between two or more people? I just don’t know.
