Brachycephalization is why I’m in Arts

Girl 1: It’s really hard because the prof usually teaches grad students but this is his one undergrad class and he thinks we’re, like, beneath him.
Girl 2: So, does he use really big words that you don’t understand? I hate it when professors do that.
Girl 1: It’s Medical Anthropology.
