No idea. Bon jour was Princeton, Keyt was Cornell, don’t remember other beards. And the Yalies were rare. uW was definitely in the Harvard/Cornell camp when it came to faculty.creepycoug said:
Clatterbaugh was my advisor and it wasn’t Moore either, who was on the pudgy side. The guy I’m thinking about was a tall’ish emaciated string bean. If you say his name I’ll remember it. He was a Yale guy.StLouisDawg said:I think there is an apple and oranges thing happening here. The people who actually went to UW remember (at least when I was there) that profs were required to use a modified decimal grading system. 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, Etc. So really for most classes to get a 4.0 you had to achieve a 97% or above on coursework. Setting aside the crayon degrees like business and speech communications, getting an actual 4.0 in a class (as opposed to a 3.8 or 3.9) was pretty difficult.
I had one. ONE. 400 level logic class. Ironically only final I took while drinking.
And whoever asked who the scraggly beard raincoat phill professor was - had to be Clatterbaugh or Ron Moore. If he was an asshat that looked like 30 lbs of pig shit in a gunney sack, it was Ron Moore. If he looked like he wanted you to fuck his wife it was Clatterbaugh.
So the real question for the group is you got your grades via telephone back in the day. The rumor was Starman, the IVR assistant, would say something after reporting the quarter grade if and ONLY if you got a 4.0. What was the communication and did Starman actually say it?
Funny story: 2nd year of law school, take legal philosophy. Professor comes up to me before first class and asks if I am so and so from UW. I say yes, we chat a bit, and he asks me if I know Prof Ron Moore. I say yes and am silent… sensing there is more, professor ask my honest opinion of him.
I said Ron Moore was an arrogant windbag that treated people badly and students as serfs. Went on to say he was an exceptionally poor tipper, especially for his neighborhood, and as an actual philosopher he could regurgitate canon but original rigorous thought escaped him. A terrible person.
Professor looks at me and said. “ I quite agree. I co chaired a conference with him some years ago and you describe him to a tee”.
Law school professor and I became good friends. He came to my wedding.
And Ron Moore is still a piece of shit. -
I only told Aesthetics from him. It was fine but not great. I think he was competent in teaching undergrads the meat and potatoes. Not a stupid man. But, otherwise forgettable.StLouisDawg said:

Clatterbaugh was smart and engaging, and one of the most kind and thoughtful people I’ve ever known. -
I couldn’t let it go. Bob Coburn. I got a 3.7 from Coburn, who I recall was a notoriously hard grader.creepycoug said:

Now I know why I’m a pour.

Same. I can’t keep up with this. Ask me about a Husky Game from any season and I can remember every TD and which players had a good game. This is out of my wheelhouse.YellowSnow said:Now I know why I’m a pour.

Fortunately I’m tall, handsome and don’t have autism. -
Well shit. Now I feel like I out pizza’d the Hut.
But yeah, we’re weird. I got a degree in philosophy because it was the hardest subject I ever encountered. -
I always enjoy watching peasants do things for me. In any weather.YellowSnow said:

I got a 4.3 in Pump Kinetics and Intro to Gas Station Socioeconomics. -
