Teachers???

If your teacher was a dwelled in Middle Earth, what race would he/she be and why?

*Kindof a dorky question: just interested.

Depends on the teacher I suppose. My favourite math teacher would definitely be a hobbit, the one from environmental law would have been one of the istari, but I've had quite a few classes from orcs and balrogs as well.

Not from Middle Earth, my math professor has given himself the title of "Big Cuddly Teddybear." Don't ask. The class didn't.

good question. well i have some gandalfy like teacher, but most are like treebeard, spend too long talking about one thing and it wasnt really worth talking about. But i expect that if they really wanted too, they could be quite different

That's a really interesting topic!
I have had a professor from every race, I guess.

My Electronics prof. -----> A hobbit: the simple and easy-going type

My Communications prof. -----> A Man: an outstanding person who fights for what he believes in

My Signal Processing TA ------> An Elf: this guy could really make you visualize what he was talking about!!

My Microwave Engineering prof. -----> Saruman: too much academics made him evil
(He's not actually evil, he's just too smart for students and so are his exams )
