Did a teacher get tired of a student showing up late day-after-day and insulted him by comparing that student to a retarded person?

'Tardy' does have part of the word 'retard', and it would have been a pretty clever insult that could have caught on and evolved into the standard word it is today.

Serious question. Give a good answer. I get enough tardy answers as it is!

I do not know what i want to do with my life, and i'm a junior in college. I currently a biology major with a concentration in Secondary Education, but I'm leaning towards not doing that anymore. I'm not longer motivated to go to class, and it just all seems like a waste of time. I dont really know many people here, and my roomate just informed me he's withdrawing from his classes and is not returning. I feel bummed out and i really just wanna be home, and even work so i can save up some money. What are some good ways to ease my g/fs stance on me staying.

I'm looking to earna double major in Business (or Economics, not sure which) and International Relations (most likely with an emphasis on business) and a minor in Pre-Law, and from there go to law school and earn a law degree. I'll also be taking Japanese classe - although not as part of my major more because the culuture and language is interesting - so I'll be perhaps conversational, just not on a paper saying I am. After these years in college I was thinking of becoming a corporate lawyer, which is where large emphasis on business pays off.

However, I'm just wondering what other careers I might be able to get into with these credentials, as I'm trying ot be open minded and see all the options there are out there. Thank you for any input.

i have an iq around 134
i failed my exam and lab in marine biology
i studied about 2~3 times from the start of the course until the exam, but i woke up early and studied 2~3 hours right before the exam
i went over almost all the notes for this part given by the course
i felt that the studying wasn't very deep and even the answers i wrote were disguise-like
im really good at understanding the concepts of human biology and really enjoy it
i definately found human biology more interesting and very easy to learn
is marine biology supposed to be really hard because i got 44% in it whereas the average was from the 50-70% or something
this is my first year in university i did a lot of exams
3 courses im 20% above average
1 course is 1% less than average
but for marine biology i got basically 15% lower than the average
i find everything else easy except for this which is f***ing me up
what's goin on??????
