Perspective

Is Dr. Bob any worse than the ancient history professor who would periodically declaim things in Spanish?

The religious studies professor would would mumble and drone about 3/5 of every sentence, then yell (no, I mean YELL) out the remaining 2/5? Who'd do THIS even outside of LECTURE?

The math professor who had seniors write out the lesson content on the board (for extra credit), then she'd sit there and read Cosmo or chat with whoever her pet students were?

The English Lit professor who had no idea who wrote The Goblin Market? Or even what it was? And who pretended that wasn't the case later in the semester?

All those sorry damn professors who delight in using stupid phrases like "we religious historians", or "we in anthropology", or "we writers"?

Oh, wait. Bob does say "we writers" sometimes. Meaning himself. Whose publishing credits are suggestively absent from a comprehensive search. Yet who claims to have been "a mainstay in the cultivation of young [...] writers for some 20 years." Is this guy worse than all the others?

Yes. He's still present tense.
