Statistical Analyzer:

I went to Trinity University over thirty years ago. My freshman year was miserable, and I dropped out to work. When I returned to college study, I went to a commuter state university for three semesters before returning to complete my last two years at Trinity. I had grown up a bit, and the college had gotten considerably better as well. Faculty were not as knowledgeable in my area of major as I expected and wanted them to be, and most were not very good teachers. They were accessible and friendly enough, however. Several tenured professors in the English department at that time were terrible, and even the great Colleen Grissom, whom everyone lauded so as a super-prof, really did not know as much as she and others thought that she did. A closet gay and open feminist, she seemed more up to appeasing students, especially the men, than teaching them. Her example seemed to be followed by others. One or two professors were fine, but the best teacher I had in my major left after my freshman year before I returned to complete students. She was shunned by the faculty because, as a Harvard Ph.D., she scared them all to death. The college has certainly improved in recent years, as faculty publications and accomplishments are considerably better than when I was in attendance, but the college is still too regional in orientation and too Christian in prejudices.
