I had a chemistry professor last year who suggested to me that my questions were not worth his time, and yet acted like my classmate ( A guy ) who also stayed after to ask questions was a great student for staying after for the exact same reason. He made me, and other women in my class feel very uncomfortable with the way he looked at us and position himself around us, and with the way that his choice of words made us feel as if we were not welcome in the scientific community, and shouldn’t be working in this field . His behavior honestly made me feel so uncomfortable that I would hurry to ensure I was not the last person left in the classroom.
