Janet Barch: Difference between revisions

This behaviour and hatred of men passed on to her teaching, where she would give lower grades to male students, and distort even basic school science knowledge by including negative references to the male sex. She once deliberately made [[Kevin Thompson]] do an "experiment" designed to crush his self-esteem ("[[Too Cute]]"). She also uses "spend[ing] the period in independent study" as a threat against students like [[Upchuck]] - as "independent study" is a euphamism for being confined in a closet, something that caused Upchuck fear ("[[Fizz Ed]]").

 

 

Despite her misandry damaging her ability to teach, Barch seems to have some sense of pride in her work - in "[[Fizz Ed]]", when she was forced to give inane lessons that would promote [[Ultra Cola]], she was clearly fed up and responded to her suggested 'lesson plan' by announcing "or I can just spend the rest of the day in the teachers' bathroom, staring at the tiles" and then walking out. Later, in "[[Lucky Strike]]", she was the first teacher during union negotiations to bluntly ask Li "are we getting our raise or not?", and took a key role in the union strike by crafting the picket signs (which weren't fit for purpose and had to be redone by [[Jane Lane]]).
