Response to reading in class pg 132-136

In this scene I think professor Swenson is trying to get more information on Angela while speaking to her parents but without sounding nosey. Or even creepy that a professor would be asking so many personal questions about his students’ life. Like, the father situation, or her boyfriend. He also almost looks uncomfortable speaking to her parents because he doesn’t want to give off a weird vibe like as if something is going on between them and say the wrong thing. For example when the writer says” Swenson can only pray that his pleasure and pride aren’t visible on his face”. This gives off the idea that professor Swenson is trying to watch what he says and not overstep.
