What is the most insulting comment a professor has ever written on your work?
0bsessions:
In actuality, though not quite taken as an insult, my sophomore English teacher wrote the following on a test I took on an Ayn Rand book (Paraphrased):
"Jon, I know for a fact this was completely B.S.ed. I saw you looking over a summary before class. That said, B.S.ing people is a legitimate life skill and this was extremely well writen B.S. I am all about learning experiences. What I've learned here is to make my tests harder, please try to avoid learning that nobody cheats me twice."
I still managed a 110 on the test through an extra credit essay question (The aforementioned well written B.S.). I don't think I ever actually read a single book in that class before the test, though I did read a couple of the required reading assignments after the tests as a result of being intrigued by the test questions.
That teacher was awesome.

It wasn't me who had it but in Religious Studies one year, we had to write about our beliefs about death. In response to the question "do you believe that it is possible to die too young?" my friend wrote that if children die, it is too young as they haven't had time to live their lives.
The teacher failed her and wrote "God decides when people die, and it is always the right time".
I do not object to her believing that. But I do object to her teaching it. It was a compulsory class about different religions and their beliefs, not about her personal beliefs and how they were the only ones to have.

Jesus shit. That is horrible.

I am glad you were never in my groups. I am the kind of group member who turns into the drill sergeant when people don't do their share. This is mostly because I hate working in groups with people I don't know, especially for classes that are electives and therefore I don't know any of my group members outside of this one class, if I ever even talk to them at all.
If I ever become a teacher, I doubt I will have group projects. If I do, I will not to group average grades, because they are STUPID.

There would have been frequent arguments with me. With most of them ending in "you know how much I don't care?"
