This doesn't apply to anyone who might actually read this. But this is something I need to get off my chest.

HOW DARE YOU undermine my career path and degree choice. The way that my program works out, I'll get a B.S. in Secondary Education and a B.A. in Physics. Yes, I think its ridiculous that its just a B.A. for a science degree, but there literally isn't a darn thing I can do about it. It doesn't make me any less intelligent than you. It doesn't mean that you'll do "better" things with your life. It literally just means that I don't have to take THREE EXTRA COURSES THAT I WILL NEVER EVER NEED OR USE AS A TEACHER. I am going to school to be a teacher. That's what I want to do. That's what I've always wanted to do. I love physics and I always will, and I'm making it my goal as a teacher to pass that love onto my future students.

Working for a B.A. in Physics does not make me any less serious about my education. It doesn't make me any less serious about a degree in physics. It doesn't make me any less of a student than you.

You are a small minded imbecile if you think that because I won't have a B.S. in Physics I won't be able to do anything with my career. Also, while I'm on this rant about you, screw you for being a small minded, imbecilic, sexist pig. We have three classes together this semester and will have multiple over the next few years, I'm doing exponentially better than you in every single one of these classes (go figure, trying actually helps) and you STILL FIND IT NECESSARY to make sexist and rude comments to me about being a woman in an intense physics program.

AGH.
