You can't point to any single thing that says they should be grounded, but they generally have been brats all day. It's a shame when you take a description of a professional educator and a toddler and can't tell which is which. | |

If they seem hesitant, ask if it would be OK for the professor to treat the women in the class differently than the men, and in such a way as they are treating the foreign students. That might get them to realize they have a real problem on their hands. | |

| Aug 16, 2016 at 18:19 | comment | added | user60356 | @zeldredge I think we have an international student support office, so if I can't figure out who I should deal with I'll send them an email. I'm not worried about retaliation, there's basically nothing he can do me and I'm fine standing behind my complaint. I feel like it would have more credibility if it didn't come from a direct victim. | |
| Aug 16, 2016 at 18:13 | comment | added | ff524 | The professor is an adjunct, so it's actually reasonably likely that he won't be asked to teach again if there are significant complaints. | |
| Aug 16, 2016 at 18:10 | comment | added | user60356 | I wish I knew. There was a guy from the Middle East in there but the professor mostly ignored him. | |

| Aug 16, 2016 at 18:09 | comment | added | zeldredge | @JackSt.Claire right, my comment in the first paragraph is more that I don't know whether he's also this way to e.g. Koreans | |
| Aug 16, 2016 at 18:08 | comment | added | user60356 | Thanks. I'll definitely look into that. I should clarify that the Chinese students actually are from China. | |
