the other day i read a question about a girl who is in love with her prof... someone told her its bad news and stuff. . i know that but i was wondering if anyone could tell me what trouble SHE could get into? i know he can get fiered and not work as a teacher again ... what does she have to lose? and what happens if she was caught approaching him?
Razhie answered Friday March 21 2008, 4:45 pm: The largest thing she has to loose is respect. The respect of her peers, her other teachers, and of the university community. You can't kid yourself into thinking that such gossip doesn't spread far and wide.
If she is a professional school, or a more tailored program, her actions might haunt her out in the industry for years to come as well.
In rare cases, students might be subject to academic dishonesty or misconduct for engaging in an inappropriate relationship with a professor.
In some states, if the student is eighteen or younger, there are penalties for being in a position of authority (like a professor) and engaging in sexual activity, so she could find herself compelled to disclose things she rather not regardless of the fact it was consensual.
But as I said at the begining, the biggest risk is to her respectability. Reputations are fragile, hers just as much as his. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
