It seems like some of the counselors and workers just don t want to deal with people as fully as they should. Professors should not assume that all of their students only have school as their major responsibility. I found that once professors know I am serious, they are more compassionate and understanding. Making the student feel at ease during a presentation. Being well informed in assignments.
Most teachers live by their values.
My exposure is mainly through instructors which seem average in their values. Some classes have been a little disruptive. Some part-time class instructors know the subject matter but are not teachers and lack skill in the art of teaching. Some professors tolerate late assignments or projects very well others wont bend even for emergencies. Teachers seem dedicated.
