I think I agree with your general sentiment even if I might disagree with how you&#x27;re presenting it. I think too often professors view class as simply something standing between them and getting back to their research, much in the same vein as staff meetings or similar.<p>That being said, from the article, a student expecting a professor to meet with her at 8 PM is ludicrous. Office hours are office hours. If they are &quot;inconvenient&quot; (which, best case means she had class those two hours, or more likely she didn&#x27;t want to wake up early enough to be there at 9), make an appointment and ask the professor when another reasonable time to meet would be.<p>And calculating that the professor &quot;owes you&quot; $160 in education is a great way to be told to either show up to office hours or figure it out on your own.
