U of A should feel a lot of pressure with everything I gave up to be here.
I did not have low expectations.
So far, Ive had a professor say racism is biological.
I've heard a white women say shes "tired of being politically correct" in a 400 level class.
I've been addressed by countless professors as "you guys"
I've had a professor stare down my shirt.
I've had a professor make a joke about women being unimaginable without bodies.
If it wasn't for one class, Id have nothing but an eye roll for U of A.
My feminist theories class blows my mind about 7 times a week.
I hurry home to do that homework.
Its truly my favorite.
It is the only class that makes me think "This is why I'm here"
Everyday things get a tiny bit better.
My sociology classes are pretty disappointing (especially for being the "best program in Arizona")
But my Gender and Women Studies classes are giving me life.
So.
I mean.
I might switch majors, whatever.
