Since you’ve indicated that the seating arrangement is static, that most sit in the same seat every class, and assuming that you’re looking down at her/them/the rest of the class at a slight angle (vs., say, Forum style seating), I would mentally rehearse teaching class while keeping your sight line at top-of-head level for the full duration of class. It’s just subtle enough to be mistaken for eye contact while keeping you out of the Danger Zone.

I am 100% confident that she is not dressing like that for any reason other than that’s how she dresses. In fact, there’s really nothing wrong with it. I’m really only concerned about what might happen if I “accidentally” look at the wrong time, which I believe I have the ability to not do.

You guys just must not be passionate enough about the subject you teach to be distracted by such things, geeeze. Just wait until she brings her laptop to you to ask you a question about something on the screen and she is holding it at exactly chest level. :cool: 😂 🤷‍♂️

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?

I think we are going to need pics so we can truly see what we are dealing with and help you out :)

I actually hesitated before posting but figured we’re all adults, and I sincerely am interested to see if anyone has any constructive suggestions. I guess the advice so far is don’t look and don’t say anything, which is what I was going to do anyway.

FYI - The pic I posted was some rando from the internet.

"we’re all adults,"

That was your first mistake!

True story: I supervised a group of people and each semester we also had a couple PSU interns. In fall 2002 we had three interns, and the first day of the internship was the first anniversary of 9/11. And two of the interns showed up dressed professionally. The third was wearing a backless crochet top cut down to THERE. Plenty of sideboob on both sides. And to top it off, er, perhaps bottom it off, she was wearing very low cut jeans with much of a pink thong revealed. Despite being urged by the men of the group (younger men) to say nothing, at the end of the shift I pulled her aside (after discussing with my supervisor and HR) and explaining our somewhat dressy casual style. And it was never a problem again, although the guys were disappointed.

Of course, your situation is slightly different, so YMMV. Good luck!

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.

As a retired professor, I'd recommend DON'T. Someone may see it and figure out who you are talking about and you don't want that.

On a related side note, has a picture ever been taken of Sydney Sweeney in which showing her cleavage isn't the whole point of the picture?

That may be a good thing. Your eyes will lock. She'll give you a slip of paper after class with her cell phone number on it. You'll meet. You won't be able to get it up. She'll sit in back of the class forever more. Case closed, semester over. Back to porn.

You had me until semester over. It just started!

It’s a regular classroom. 30 students total. I can move around the room, but I’ll know…

Check page 1 of this thread. I posted a pic that captures the spirit of the conversation and is a close approximation of my “issue.”
