Some/many/all of you may know that I'm taking language courses at the local community college. I won't write about my first day in detail, but know this. The German professor was organized, orderly, fairly stoic, logical, and concise. The French professor was very touchy-feely, not terribly organized, emotive, and not particularly logical (at one point suggesting that grammar is "inside you" and you just have to "let it flow out"). It will be interesting to see if these cultural stereotypes continue to be embodied in my professors/classes and to see if they rub off on the students. (I'm pretty sure I need to get back to psychological analysis...)
