Sitting in Shankara's class sometimes transports me back to an Japhetian era. Except I'm quite sure the latter meant all the innuendo, and the former just assumes we don't think dirty enough (LOL).
Here are the most recent ones - "The girl is reluctant because I'm looking, but the boy just keeps trying"
"The girl does not protest - she should say, this is not the place - why don't you go under a tree outside?"
Well, yeah, the joke's half lost when it's not delivered right. It's impossible to mimic Shankara's delivery in written language.
When he isn't making these 'sleazy' comments - he speaks like a statute. "Prakash did not teach is no excuse - you shall be deemed to know mortgages."
Given all this, and his writing the alphabet on the board, he is still one of the better teachers we have (note the use of teacher - and not lecturer). He is completely fair in his evaluation and bias plays no role anywhere. Most importantly, unlike most of the faculty, he knows english.
