Starting by getting my hair cut, ending in the gutter
Posted by Nathaniel.
I was getting shaggy, so I got my hair cut yesterday and, of course, ended up eavesdropping on the conversations going on all around me. One in particular was interesting with the girl in the chair telling the hot stylist how much she likes Facebook. That led to me asking the guy cutting my hair if he was on Facebook and me somewhat sheepishly admitting my addiction.
From there we moved on to the fact that the guy cutting my hair’s wife always looks at Rate My Professors. Of course, one of the first things that I did when I got home was check it out to see if I was rated. I haven’t quite figured out yet if it’s a good thing or a bad thing that I wasn’t listed.
However, we do have a RMP celebrity right here on the blog! Michael apparently made a real impression on some group of P4 kids. He’s even rated as being “hot”.
Woohoo! Congrats Michael.

… and the cat is out of the bag. I had hoped to keep that particular site under wraps, but oh well. I don’t think that a handful of votes really qualifies as a significant sample, either.
I do think it’s pretty impressive that Facebook has become a barbershop conversation topic, though. When I got signed up in my first or second year at Dartmouth it was just a small, Ivies-only little novelty.

I couldn’t find Brian Chaboyer on that website, so Nathaniel, you’re maybe just taking after your advisor. You know you two have so much in common.
