Univ. Of Tennessee Professor Gets Fired & Spills Strange Tea All Over His Department

Take a seat, pour yourself a steaming mug of the bitterest of teas & tune in for some totally normal, professional, adult behavior from a professor at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

Chill & laid back?

Ehhh, after reading that endless novel that he sent out & encouraged young students to share I’m not so sure. The department there sounds like it’s not exactly perfect but admitting to cat-fishing people in the past & being involved in all sorts of odd drama isn’t a good look for this gent.

Among the highlights (er, lowlights?)…

A little deviant behavior goofin’ :

Reeling in those catfish :

Despite those 46 paragraphs I am *not* disgruntled as they’d have you believe :

The school is aware of what’s going on & apparently all of the professors mentioned in the long tirade will be showing up to the class he was bumped from at some point tomorrow to address it.

I’ve never had a professor quit & go out in a blaze of receipt filled emails but I worked at a 50s diner once where a waitress flipped out during the evening rush, swiped people’s food off a table & then slammed around in the entryway of the vestibule (a real life glass case of emotions in that moment) before running out into the night, apron strings flying behind her. Painfully awkward for everyone involved but I couldn’t look away… That’s sort of how I feel about this. It doesn’t effect me directly but for some sad reason I’ve gone down the rabbit hole. If it’s stress & anxiety that’s caused this meltdown I hope he gets the help he needs. Oy!
