[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So there aren't any schools where most/many faculty prefer to be called by their first names? You think OP's DD was just wrong about that?[/quote] Yes, I think DD's daughter is wrong, and that she has failed to pay close attention to the subtleties of this situation (most likely because her mother has trained her to believe that her professors aren't really deserving of much respect because they are "hacks" who need to suck up disrespectful treatment from paying customers). It is almost May and she has failed to realize that, no, it is not correct to default to first names with her professors. Her advisor had to actually speak to her about this, as if she is a little child. [/quote]
