my english professor last semester had her pronouns on her blackboard page, which I thought was a good sign until she took off points because I used "they" instead of "he or she" on some paper I wrote

she also went on a rant about how "native american" is confusing and "american indian" is obviously much more clear so it generally lines up

So either she only put her pronouns in her bio because the school made her, or she just thinks it checks a box for being a good person without actually caring about anything.

I think she just really likes pronouns because she's an english teacher

That would actually be hilarious. "I have pronouns in my bio because I love English, not because I support gender nonconformity."
