The time my poli sci professor told me to 'just ignore the protestors' and it backfired hard
So last semester at UT Austin, there was this big walkout over the Israel-Palestine thing. My professor, Dr. Henderson, straight up told me in office hours to just put my headphones in and walk through the crowd, said it was the 'adult' thing to do. I tried it. Got surrounded by like 20 people yelling in my face, one kid knocked my coffee out of my hand. Security had to pull me out. Professor acted like I did something wrong. Anyone else get advice from faculty that turned out to be terrible?
