McBeef is still clearly a better piece. Mr. Brownstone is a cardboard cutout villain as compared to the complex tapestry of Richard McBeef; at the same time, the horror and ennui is better crystallized in the singular protagonist of Mcbeef than it is in the ensemble cast of Brownstone.

doesn't sound good, but if you haven't done anything wrong you should be fine. try not to be too defensive. ask questions rather than making assertions (other than assertions about yourself) and use active listening. [/ QUOTE ] qft. if you really didnt do anything wrong then you'll be fine. professors dont just randomly want to screw students (unless hes gay LDO) unfortunately it probably does relate to some sort of cheating suspicion. did you have any written exams? perhaps he thinks someone copied off you or you copied off someone? collaborative homework assignments? you seem like you're clean though so just go talk to him. be polite as mentioned above and not overly defensive, but firm if he accuses you of something you didn't do. update once you know more -- interesting stuff |

i didnt accidentally plagiarize. ganjaman - do you have any advice on how to handle talking to him? im thinking hes gonna say i plagiarized or did something academically dishonest - which i really didnt do anything close to plagiarizing or what not. respond with straight up "i didn't do it, you must be mistaken" ? would go over well? any other plans? does this guy want to screw me? [/ QUOTE ] Yes, i do have some advice for you if he accuses you of plagiarism when you are innocent. Once he makes the accusation, you politely end the conversation. Then you proceed to the Head of the Dept's office and file a grievance against your professor. This will not only make it clear that you believe you are innocent, but it will prevent any future attempts of unlawful retaliation by your professor. You will also want to request that all work you complete for the remainder of the semester is graded by the Head, and not by the professor. If the Head doesn't want to accommodate you, then you head for the Associate Dean's office. Then the Dean. Believe me when i say that no professor needs that kind of hassle, tenured or not. Now, if you are guilty, then it's a whole different story. But i'm assuming that you're not since you say you're not. |

that is terrible advice. this accusation getting to the Dean would be a bad thing.

I believe what Ganjasaurus Rex says, on account of him being an actual professor.

Ganga,
Thanks for your advice. I'm afraid of escalating things this quickly thought...i like the prof/class and kind of thought it could just be talked through. All of the potential red tape you mentioned really sounds like hell for all parties. i dunno. additional info: he messaged me at 1 am, 24 hours ago, i read the email at 3pm, called and left a message, and emailed him. ive heard nothing. i take this lack of contact as a good sign...does anyone else see it this way? something super urgent couldnt so easily be ignored...plus, usually this guy answer emails pretty quick. so mysterious. agh. |

aren't we REALLY jumping ahead? for all we know it could be something completely unrelated, i think we have put a lot of words in the prof's mouth
