My advisor at Scripps:
Gayle Greene
As you can see, most of the time she's either feared or loved. But regardless of the way people interpret her personality, she does know her stuff and is considered one of the foremost feminist scholars in the country.

My favorite prof, and the guy who was my advisor my senior year:
John Peavoy
John is pretty much universally liked, which I expected. He really was my saving grace many times throughout my undergrad career.

How much older is he? I remember (I was also class of '83) that my civics teacher was a honey (he was the son of the school secretary) and he ended up hooking up with a member of the class of '82. I think he was probably about 25 at the time, not long out of college, anyway.

Moving is such a pain in the ass. Especially when you end up doing it a week sooner than you thought you would.
