Pics of your professors!

[Buck Birdseed]

Tom Baldwin, boring, bobbing philosophy lecturer.


Christian Piller, humourless german philosophy lecturer.


Herr Doktor Werner Bonefeld, insane german politics lecturer.


Halef Afshar, diminutive politics lecturer/activist.


Sue Mendus, really good politics/philosophy lecturer.


Roger MacGinty, random man with northern irish accent, crap in bed, I mean lectures, but gives good seminar.

My New Economics Tutor and DoS (Director of Studies). Really didn't look like the kinda prof. I was expecting at Oxford:


My new Management Tutor:

[Zopperoni]

Oh, and this is a charming shot of my Bookkeeping professor Wim van der Vooren:

Tutor? is it like a Teaching Assistant? i.e not a lecturer?

[JohnT]

I find this thread vaguely disturbing on so many levels...

[Kropotkin]

My professor (as head of institution, americans seems to give away the title to pretty much everyone). His area of expertice is historical national accounts. My area of limitied expertice is not historical national accounts...

[Az]

Zop: the last looks like Eli in a ripe age.


My Air pollution lecturer, Ass. Professor Jacob Maman

[Az]

A pretty funny dude, btw. Always taking shots at government ministries on regulatons, and factories.

Quite cocky, but that's ok.

[Buck Birdseed]

Huh huh huh. Huh huh huh. He said "Ass Professor".

Er, anyway, only Baldwin, Mendus and Afshar are actually professors. The rest are normal lecturers with doctorates. One term I was taught by an untitled Mr. Cass, which was a bit strange...

No. You have lectures, and also personal tutoring with the particular specialist from your college (or somestimes other). They're both lecturers for the university, and tutors for students in Trinity College. Dr. Wallace (the top one) is a lecturer on Game Theory (2nd and 3rd year) and Mathmatical Economics and Econometrics (1st year). Dr. Seidel is new, and I have no idea what his specialties are.

So, no TAs? like Graduate students, or sometimes, D.Sc.s that pass the material?

[Buck Birdseed]

In most universities, yes. At Oxford? Hah! They've got personal tutorials conducted by doctorate-level leccturers once a week for every student. They're ****ing swimming in cash.

No. Sometimes Grad Students take a supervision (1 on 1) if it's their specialty, and not one of your tutor's areas, but rarely.

Actually no. Oxford is runnign out of money. You do realise that in America you get about 4 tiems as much money per student, and Harvards endowment is worth 26 times as much as Oxfords. Compared to american Uni's, Oxford wouldn't be in the top 50 richest.
