Summary of The Professor, Part Two
Summary of The Professor, Part Two
The Professor, Part Two, of tuesdays with Morrie, is another description of a particular part of Morrie's life. After coming out of college, Morrie was invited to help record cases and take notes on Mental patients, a new idea of that time. Many of the patients liked him, and he came to the conclusion that many of them just wanted to feel noticed.
The chapter then jumps to Morrie’s professoring days. He was always a peacemaker, ending protests and giving A’s to all his students in his early years to prevent them from being drafted into the war. Many current day people might call him foolish for his teaching methods, but, “[t]hen again, how many business or law students ever visit their old professors once they leave? Morrie’s students did that all the time.” All of his students would say that Morrie was the best teacher they had ever had.
Albom then describes how, during the next couple weeks, he begins to read about death and what different cultures believe about it. These beliefs symbolize Morrie’s many thoughts about what he may be facing after he dies.
