Role-play Situation: Faculty-Student, “A Not-So-Honest Mistake”
Have two people read the scene. Discuss the situation as a group, using questions on the back.
Grace and Betsy are looking for their male professor’s office and having trouble finding it…
Heard from the hall…Betsy: So where is this guy’s office?
Grace: He’s my sociology professor. It should be somewhere around here…
Betsy: What’s his name again?
Grace: Leach.
Betsy: I don’t see a Professor Leach anywhere.
Grace (next door to a woman professor’s office): Oh! Here it is. Locked. Damn -- he doesn’t have a whiteboard.
Betsy: Hey, maybe this lady knows where he is. He’s a big professor… he must have a secretary.
Grace: Yeah, maybe. (to the professor) Um, excuse me? Are you Professor Leach’s secretary?
Professor (pause): I’m another professor. This entire hallway is faculty offices (short pause). The secretary is in the department office down the hall.
Grace: Oh! I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to offend you. We’ll try there. Thanks.
Questions:
-
Can you imagine this statement being made by a Skidmore student? (btw…it was)
-
What assumptions about the woman professor underlie the students’ question to her?
-
What assumptions about the man professor underlie the students’ statements?
-
How might the students’ assumptions about gender that showed up in this hallway conversation influence what happens in classrooms?
