Hello, this is my first time on the boards so please bear with me.
I'm a college student at Eastern Illinois University(eiu.edu) and recently a professor has threatened me with legal action on the basis of harassment.
I wrote an email to him using my yahoo.com account about 3 months ago stating that he's a music teacher and not a professional writing teacher and shouldn't be teaching Resumes and how to write them when it contradicts the school's professional writing curriculum and how to write them.
Basically, in one email I sent him I said he shouldn't teach how to write resumes against ___(then i wrote in the book that we were being taught from I dont remember).
Now, I know this was a stupid thing to do but I went out drinking with the buddies that night and we started getting rilled up about teachers and he just got to me. So, in my drunkenness I wrote the email.
I forgot about the email and now I am just recently hearing about legal action. Does he have a basis? I thought it was no big deal since it was one email to another (not public) and it was just one time (while under the influence), but it's kinda getting me scared.
If you need anything else, please ask. I am trying to get a copy of the email from him but it's taking some time. I know I didn't threaten physically at all.
