1. They have first names, too! 

And sometimes even nicknames—he may be named Matthew, but you can call him Matt! 

2. They also pronounce “Quercus” incorrectly. 

You may pronounce it “qwurr-kiss” or even “qwhere-kiss,” but it’s actually pronounced the way it’s spelled when you read it in the mirror. Who knew!?

3. They used to update their MSN statuses with emotional song lyrics. 

What better way to let people know how you’re feeling than by quoting My Chemical Romance?

4. They have also never met someone from Woodsworth College. 

More like “Who-dsworth,” am I right!!!  

5. They hate that they “have to” give you a final exam. 

But do they really hate it? Some excuses I’ve heard: “Sorry, it’s just the rules of 100-level courses,” or “We need a variety of evaluation methods.”  

6. They have, in fact, felt “like a plastic bag / drifting through the wind / wanting to start again.” 

Don’t forget—profs have feelings too.
