- Relatedly, I've seen *way* too many emails from male students to female professors or deans that show this same lack of respect. Even emails where they're appealing a grade or asking for a favor, they're just addressing a professional with a PhD three decades older than them by their first name.
- Been using email since early 90s & don't use salutations in e-mails at all; relatively rare that I receive e-mails from others beginning w/them - I always found the practice a bit weird. For those who do use them, discriminating on who they use them with on the basis of gender is clearly wrong tho.
- And obviously a dismissal by e-mail is always a trashy thing to do, and the racist and sexist motivations behind the Trumpist firing in this case are despicable.May 12, 2025 01:35
