Default Re: Strange Prof. Email...

so i finally got in touch with him at about 1 pm this afternoon...

he said "Oh hi matt, i just wanted to remind you to pick your paper up, weve had it here for a few weeks after handing it out, but you werent here that day"

i say "oh, i just thought you never handed it out"

him "also, i had a question about your sources. Your first couple of paras get into some really intricate rhetorical analysis and i dont think you could have thought of that yoursel"

me "i didnt use any outside sources. well, i used a rhetorical dictionary of terms i guess"

him "thats a source, just bring it in on monday, and have a great weekend"

me "okay bye"

overall tone of prof i would say was...jolly.

a lot of worry for what seems like not a very big deal...

thoughts?

Obviously he is sandbagging you, hoping that you'll come in with your guard down.

WTF is this?

Oh hey, you never picked up your paper. Come get it!

ok!

bye!

oh ps, im pretty sure you plagiarized!



No professor would be so casual about something like this.

Go in prepared for the worst.
