Finally excited for college! But...?

It's all about adaptation in college....welcome to college. You're going to have many professors who you do not like or who are not always fair. You just have to remember that these things do not define who you are. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. :) I do not think this should negatively impact your college education or grades. Talk with other members on the swim team. If everyone really hates this person, then surely you can all sympathize with the other...how did everyone else on the team manage to stick through it/adjust in college? Be open and talk with others. You will be fine.
