Need help with a cleavage issue

[OUIrPSU]

Yeah, you read that correctly. In 30 years of teaching undergraduates, I’ve seen a lot of, ahem, cleavage. I usually ignore it - or pull a Jerry Seinfeld - but I’m having a difficult time this semester with one particular student who sits right in front of me when I’m talking to the class and apparently has no qualms displaying her physical attributes.

Today, as I was handing out an assignment, I happened to look at her and noticed not just her cleavage, but also that her nipples were protruding through her top. As soon as I saw that, I immediately looked away since I’m like 40 years older than them and not a perv.

Confounding my dilemma is the fact that she’s very attractive (you can throw a flag, but it ain’t gonna’ happen) and an outstanding student who asks a lot of really good questions, so I HAVE to look at her.

After class, as I was walking back to my office, I thought…why not ask the AKB for guidance and advice on how to deal with this “problem” since, let’s face it, what else is there to discuss right now?

So, anyway, what do all ya’ll got for me?

What time is class?

1. Think of naked grandma.
2. Think of baseball.
3. Think of naked grandma playing baseball.

Are the desks bolted to the floor? Change the seating dynamics. Break up the rows of desks. In a past life, several careers ago, I changed the classroom desks to a half circle, but not due to your situation.

 

[BobPSU92]

Just do her.

 

[Nothing Special]

Do you lecture from the podium or are you a "walk and talk" guy? I'd move to another side of the room, if possible. If you walk and talk, stay to either side of seated location.

Obviously wear yoga pants with nothing under them and let nature lead the way.

For the love of God, don’t mention this to anyone at your school.

 

[Catch1lion]

Stop thinking of it as an issue.

Be right back....

As a retired teacher who taught college, here is what I would and would not do.
1. Do NOT go to anyone at the college, particularly a woman. Accusations may follow.
2. Do your best to ignore it or VERY subtly enjoy the show.

Yes. And #2 isn’t that hard. Maintain plausible deniability. Don’t mention it to your wife either.

What time is class?

Tuesday and Thursday from 11:00 to 12:15

 

[OUIrPSU]

Like I said in my original post, you can throw the flag cause there ain’t no pictures coming. I will, however, see if I can find an image of someone who resembles her. If I do, I’ll post it.

Are the desks bolted to the floor? Change the seating dynamics. Break up the rows of desks. In a past life, several careers ago, I changed the classroom desks to a half circle, but not due to your situation.

The problem with the room configuration is that there are exactly the same number of seats as there are students, and students typically sit in the same spot every class. I can’t just ask her to move because she’ll ask me why.

 

[CFLion]

Just do her.

And then what?

Definitely a walk and talk guy, but it’s gonna’ happen again no matter what I do.

 

[OUIrPSU]

That’s the best advice so far!

 

[BobPSU92]

And then what?

Go again.

 

[OUIrPSU]

Oh, don’t worry, I won’t. That’s why I decided to turn to the AKB. I can’t imagine that this hasn’t happened to every one of my heterosexual male colleagues at some point, but it’s not the kind of thing that comes up at faculty senate meetings.

That’s what I have been doing and what I am going to do. But it’s distracting and I have this fear that she’ll look at me at exactly the wrong moment, if you know what I mean.

 

[OUIrPSU]

She already knows, which is a conversation for an entirely different post.

Schedule office hours and create an only fans account?

Plausible deniability. If she were in my class I could have always told her I was talking about the sine function.

 

[OUIrPSU]

Go again.

Well, Bob, if that’s what I must do…

 

[BiochemPSU]

Do you teach ornithology?

Nope

Nope

In that case, fain cataract surgery and tell the class you have to wear sunglasses for the rest of the semester.

I have a saying that I use. Chin(s) and up. When I am talking to, in my case, parents of students I don’t look below the lowest chin. Now granted, sometimes that is very close close to the cleavage but that’s my limit.

 

[OUIrPSU]

This is pretty close to the “problem” I’m dealing with (note that she’s never worn a shirt this short, but it IS January, so…)
