It is far more important that your professors like you than it is that you actually excel at your studies. Especially when you're a graduate of the arts, and not the sciences.

That and I'm a fucking genius.

You know, I find this to be very true and it's probably one of the more frustrating things about education. My 9th grade history teacher was the biggest prick, and if you didn't totally follow his ideas and basically give him a handjob, he would give you a bad grade. I failed my mid-term exam because I basically went head on against him, and whether my ideas were good or not, he failed me, and it was ridiculous. Then for the final exam I played into his game and I got an A on the final. When he hands back the paper he gives this asshole grin, like he knew exactly what he was doing...So annoying...

Luckily I go/went to a more liberal college where I believe this happens less, though I'm sure it still happens. I don't know, I just think I don't really learn much if I'm just jerking off my professor, but yeah, I guess you have to give it up for the grades.
