My English teacher junior year of high school was going through an ugly divorce and would show up to class visibly intoxicated from the night before sometimes wearing the same clothes. One day she was 45 minutes late to class and when she finally showed up she was going through the week's itinerary while sitting on her stool and fell off in front of the whole class. I felt bad for her because she was actually a really good person that was going through some bad shite.

Bonus: her daughter was hot as hell and is now a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader.

5th grade English teacher was a pill headed count. She spazzed out one day over something stupid, threw a pencil, and hit a dude in the eye.

5th grade home room teacher was fresh out of college. She started off as a complete pansy, and turned into an utterly Nazi bitch by mid-term because she got fricked with so hard. Had a honest to god nervous breakdown.

The marching band director used to get blotto drunk by the time practice started after school. Motherfricker had gone to Julliard but drank his way to the bottom. He'd be marching us around and around the parking lot, getting ever more belligerent, which only made us frick off worse. He ended up quitting and going to be a EBR Sheriff's officer.

We superglued the 9th grade science teacher to his chair. He acted like a bitch and tried to get the whole class suspended.

My 11th grade French teacher (a black woman with a big ol' arse) had bad gastrointestinal problems. She'd be leaned over someone's desk talking to them, and she would belch loudly in their face and fart in someone else's, all at the same time. She was a sweet lady, so we didn't give her too much grief about it.

Oh shite.. I jusy realized we're talking about total education history..

Mine's actually famous, as it was brought to light when my hippie history teacher went nuts in our 9th grade biology class and almost assaulted a student even though he was,"anti-violence about everything, even if someone broke into his house and raped and murdered his children...".. Good ol' Va public education

Anyway, this dude got cuckolded by his gf and went to her house, dumped gas on her and burned her alive.

He messed up though because he also got a good bit of the burn mix on himself and lit himself on fire, he survived for a few weeks before dying in the hospital from,"burn complications", he basically off'd himself.

Here is the story.. LINKs

Crazy hippies

What was the biggest teacher/professor meltdown you've ever witnessed?



I had a professor in 2007 who was putting her house back together after it was damaged in Katrina. So much of her time was taken up by the project that she was canceling class constantly. I think maybe three out of four classes were cancelled that semester, and she wasn't giving us many assignments to do in the mean time, either. That class was the only class I had in the morning, so it got to the point where I didn't see the point in waking up, getting dressed, driving to school, and walking to class just to see a cancellation notice on the door and drive back home.

The day of the final exam came and we all showed up and were wondering what the hell she could possibly give us for an exam when we didn't really do anything for the entire semester. She came in, sat down, and started crying and admitted that she hadn't prepared a final exam and that she totally fricked up the entire semester for everyone. Our final exam ended up being "just send me an email with what grade you think you deserve for the semester and why."

had a typing teacher my sophomore year of high school. She told me one day "I like your sweater" Known drug dealer in my my class says"why don't you tell me you like my sweater?" She says "because I know his was probably a gift from his parents and yours was probably bought with your drug dealing money. Do you ever stop to think what that crack you sell does to people?" Never saw her again after that week.

She was the chair of the department

But I was a naïve freshman at the time, so the thought had never occurred to me... and she taught a LOT of the classes in the department that I had to take (that year I had four classes with her).

Outside of that one situation though, she was a really nice woman and a really good professor. I enjoyed my other classes with her.

Not really a teacher meltdown but in a comm class at LSU this guy was doing a Sudoku puzzle during a lecture and the prof told him to stop. He looked her point blank in the face and told her no. She told him to leave the class if he wouldn't stop and he told her no, he wasn't disrupting the class and he didn't want her to be able to penalize him for missing class. This went back and forth for a few very uncomfortable minutes, other students started to speak up and told the guy he was being an a-hole. Finally the teacher excused everyone for the day except for him. Never saw the guy in class after that.

When I was in elementary school, we were having some type of assembly in the cafeteria. All the tables were removed and the entire school was sitting on the floor, kindergartners up front all the way to the 8th graders in the back. Our principle was a Nun and she was on the stage up front talking to us. Well, apparently two of the kindergartners or maybe 1st graders were misbehaving because she called them out and made them come up on stage and sit down next to her in front of everyone. As she started talking again, the kids on stage were giggling. She absolutely lost her shite, picked the kids up by their hair and slammed their heads together. They both hit the ground screaming and crying. Everyone was in complete shock. I think a teacher eventually went up there and got the crying kids. She went back to talking like nothing happened and wrapped the assembly up a little while later. We didn't see her at school ever again, but she was arrested and on the news for the incident either that night or the next. This happened at a Catholic school here in BR in the mid 80's.
St. Louis King of France. I was there and saw it with my own eyes. Actually thought about post the same story myself.

One of my high school physics teachers was arrested because he picked up some kid from another high school after classes ended. Luckily I never had him.. it happened my junior year in 2012, I looked for a link but my school did a pretty good job of getting it handled quick. I only knew the details because I use to eat lunch in my Ap chem teachers room with some guys and she was head of the science department in the dirrict.

Calc 2 professor sang "rednecks" by Randy Newman. Good ole boys from LSU, went in dumb, came out dumb too. He was pissed that everyone failed his exam. Told us all it pushed him over the ledge and he was retiring.

Also had a 6 grade teacher get so pissed at a kid that she bit into a piece of chalk. It was crazy how furious this lady was. Then it was hilarious to watch her spit chalk out.

I was a Comm major at a fairly small DII school in Texas. Most of the comm majors had taken every teacher at least once and the profs knew all of us by name. There was this one psycho liberal chick that we had no choice but to take 3 courses of. Awful teacher. She tested over books alone and never what she lectured on.

We banded together our last class and raped her on the anonymous course evaluations the week before finals knowing full well we could take a hit for it.

She walked in the day before finals in tears talking about how she was trying to push us and broaden ou minds. She just yelled, cried, and walked out without the review.

We all got B's. We reported her rant. She was denied tenure, put on probation the next year and subsequently fired.

When I was in high school someone spit in one the the books and told the teacher. He started ranting and raving while the whole class just sat there shocked. Finally, while he's in the back of the classroom he wings the book towards the front aiming for the trashcan. Only he missed and his an unsuspecting girl in the back of the head Thankfully it was a paperback.

We also had a former NFL football player as a teacher. He flipped his shite one day and picked a student and his desk and carried him outside to the hallway. They switched the kid to another class the same day.

I had this English teacher who was as nice as could be for nearly the whole school year. Then about a month before graduation, she had snapped in the beginning of class and essentially called all of our seniors, idiots and that they were only passing because the school wanted us gone. I was only a sophomore at the time, but I remember one of the girls in class telling me that some rumor got out about her (the teacher) and she was none too happy about it.

Yes, that was it. I was either 3rd or 4th grade at the time, not sure which one.

Had an education profession/instructor completely lose her shite after her dissertation committee blew her life's work to Hell. She disappeared (literally, left the state with no one having any idea where she was) with her grade book, and all of our ungraded semester projects, about a week before the final.

Needless to say, the final was VERY easy and liberally scored.



LSU History prof Mark Carleton, had some kind of dispute with the Dean one time and left for parts unknown for the summer without turning in any final grades. It caused an uproar, but he was back the next fall.

Carleton taught Louisiana History and his lectures were hella entertaining. He was from Minnesota, and had degrees from Stanford and Yale. He came to LSU because he said Louisiana's history was more interesting than any other state's.

We had this sub one day in high school. Me and a couple other guys were up in front of the class going over a presentation and we started making jokes and getting the class riled up. She couldn't control anything and ended up throwing a stapler right between me and a another guys head. After that she just walked out and left.
