A professor would never tolerate it, neither should a TA or anyone else at the school.

Also, most TA's are making $15k - $25k PER YEAR and those courses are a full-time job ON TOP of taking courses AND working on a dissertation, grants, presentations and papers for conferences, etc.
Expecting a TA to tolerate someone calling them a demon is insane.

This isn't kindergarten.

It also helped them learn to write, and I was thorough in reviewing essays to help them improve.
I was both an earth science and journalism double major for both BA and MS, and taught earth science to hundreds of students (freshman thru seniors) at FSU.

RICO. It's not about which of the angels dancing on the head of that particular pin missed a step. It's Trump, Hegseth, and every single person following their illegal orders, down to the dude that pushed the buttons.
