Oooh, thank you, I was starting to run low on adjectives & invectives! I'm definitely keeping a few of those. LOL
Isn't he though? I could almost forgive it if the guy was some kind of luminary in his (or any) field. If he was exhaustively knowledgeable, widely hailed as the authority, or even just enthralling to listen to as a lecturer. He's just not, not even close. And by the way, this is a course about movies. Movies! Argh.
Thing is, this is one of the very few schools to offer full, hour-for-hour tuition remission, transferrable to family members. So as long as hubby and I combined teach enough courses to equal full time at this school, my son can go to a relatively prestigious (to say nothing of insanely expensive), private school for his undergrad basically free.
If it were not for that, I'd have insisted we move somewhere so I could find a good doctoral degree program. But with the cost and uncertainty of higher ed what it is, we can't make ourselves walk away from that opportunity for him...
