[AGL] Dr Jill Biden's ratings in Rate My Professosr

[Michael Eisenstadt]

Thanks Jim for going the extra step and reading the student evaluations 
of "Dr" Jill. Some praised her, others put her down. I think there was 
only one profoundly illiterate evaluation. So illilterate I suspect the 
writer was doing it on purpose as a put-down. I'd judge that she got 
more positive reviews than negative. Teaching Freshman English is a 
horror show, I know because I've done it.

For all I know, Jill Biden does as good a job as can be done with your 
average illiterate. OTOH, her affectation of Doctor is risible.

I've looked up professors I knew on RateMyProfessors and am always 
surprised by the comments. Of a dull pedant, I'll read "original, 
scintillating, etc." And /vice versa/ for genuine academic stars.
