Your parents have remortgaged their house to give you the opportunity of going to NYU. You're extremely excited about your new life and sophisticated social milieu. Your friends went to Amherst to get an intimate teaching experience but you know that being in New York will put you in contact with all of the world's leading thinkers.

It's your first day in the interesting looking course you took in the German department. You get to class with your empty notebooks. The students in the front row are carrying umbrellas, no doubt for their avant-garde art projects. A homeless man is sitting in the classroom. Less bohemian institutiona would have escorted him out but clearly this is a group which respects the class struggle. What a place to be!

Suddenly you realise the hobo is the lecturer.

My university professor had no idea who Zizek was. Should I be concerned about my professor, or this guy irrelevant in the mainstream world?

If you really like it, learn on your own.

Even though it might not be his field of interest, Zizek is more or less the most famous philosopher of this time, so it's still kinda silly that he doesn't know him (like, knowing his name would already be enough)

Oh I thought he was a philosophy professor. In this case it's not his fault. Like I know the most famous biochemist
