[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Calling by first name is just so rude.[/quote]

Parents pay upwards of $70,000 a year and you want our kids to walk on eggshells and bow down like plebs to liberal arts hacks? Alter your freaking narcotic.[/quote]

It’s showing proper respect jacka$$. You must think money buys everything.[/quote]

It's literally their name. It's batsh*t insane any civilian would be triggered by...their name. This isn't Baghdad, it's not a plebe talking to a Marine General.[/quote]
[b]Would you advise your child to go to a job interview and address the interviewer by their first name[/b]?[/quote]

What does that have to do with the OP's post?  Nothing.
[b]I'd say be kind to these academics.  They have so little going for them they need to have honorifics like "Dr." and "professor" to validate their existences. [/b] It's like Dr. Henry Kissinger said of academic faculties:  "The battles are so intense because the stakes are so small." :D [/quote]

You're an idiot.

You probably think that a professor's main job is to teach your child.  [/quote]
