Listed below are links to weblogs that reference updated list of (Jungian arche-)types of irritating professors:

This one, at least, wasn't mine:
Professor Only-Person-At-Tiny-College-To-Have-Ever-Published-A-Book-In-A-Printing-Of-More-Than-200 (Cryptic Ned)
And this one:
Exploits-Grad-Students-as-Cheap-Labor-in-his-Consulting-Business (Knecht Ruprecht)

And the first two on the list are due to phred.

I am legion!

Cala/Legion,

Is it fixed now?

Best,

Jon

How about Professor My-Assumptions-are-Principles/Your-Assumptions-are-Naivete ? Most likely an aging variation of Full, besotted by French-fried jargon

I and a few blogger colleagues have noticed that most of these professor types are gendered male. Should we as feminists be offended or relieved?

I can suggest a few:

Professor Neiman Marxist
Professor Foot-in-her-mouth
Professor Blabby East Coaster
Professor Should-be-retired-but-needs-to-pay-for-college-for-kids-from-third-marriage
Professor Misanthrope
Professor I-hate-you-because-you-went-to-an-Ivy-league-and-I-didn't

Let me edit the second one:

Professor Foot-in-Mouth-Disease!

(who is obviously an assistant professor. And yes, I am diagnosing myself!)

Here's a new one I just thought up: Professor Seems-Stupid-But-Is-Really-Just-Religious.
