Today, I gave a presentation to my college class about life with Tourette syndrome. I only got 3 minutes into it before my asswipe classmates started yelling stuff like "Shit!", "Cock!", and "Bob Saget!" I gave up and went back to my seat in tears as our bored instructor said "Next." FML

I would imagine that college students would have the maturity level to act like adults for a small portion of their life. But i guess some people can't. Sorry to hear Op. Some people still act like 7th graders even when they're adults and its a tad stupid to put it frankly

As person who has a disorder that lies in the same branch as Tourette's, I feel your pain. I am sorry that you were treated with such disrespect.

Looks like ignorance is not bliss for everyone involved.

John Stamos! Kidding, but seriously, screw those guys.

Seriously, don't reinforce immature and disrespectful stereotypes.

what kind of college students are these assholes??Also why didn't your instructor do something?! I hope this isn't what college will be like when I go.

I hate to say it but you are likely in for a surprise. Maturity is not actually gained through simply getting older.

Also, depends on the college. You'll find more respectful, well-behaved students at colleges with a higher national ranking.

32-- not necessarily. I learned a lot more and was around older, more mature people when I got my associates degree. When I finished up my bachelors, I was around a lot of 'just out on my own for the first time' kids.

If you start out in community college, most of your classmates will be older. I've never seen anyone in my school act like this.

Don't be discouraged. 1 college and 2 universities and I've not experienced this level of immaturity. The only immaturity comes from kids who skip class and eventually fail and are put on academic probation, or drop out. But those types don't affect your experience much

That is so awful. I am surprised the instructor or one of your fellow classmates did not stick up for you or tell them to stop. I'm sorry OP; it was really brave of you to tell everyone something very personal about yourself.

Is this a class full of freshmen or frat boys? Cause that would explain a lot.

That's so immature and disrespectful :/

You need to report the teacher to the Administration.
