Blondie, Picture This
You’ve got clouds on your lids
And you’d be on the skids
If it weren’t for your job
At the garage

The mischaracterization of people from PJO is so funny, but ESPECIALLY from HOO onward like.
“Hazel’s such an innocent little angel. She’s always nice and kind and confused.”
Hazel, who’s always ready to fight in the same way Percy is? Hazel, who made it explicitly clear she probably would’ve rocked Octavian’s shit had he not been blackmailing her? Who gets so angry on behalf of the people she loves, to the point where she doesn’t forgive those who have wronged them? Who Percy described as cursing up a storm in one of their first interactions? Who’s been shown time and time again to be FAST to anger? That Hazel?
Or Nico, who’s “a misunderstood emo. A small bean. Cute like a wet cat and innocent like a bunny.”
Nico, who’s cannonically described by most characters as “scary and unnerving?” Nico, who, for a long time, is one of the angriest characters in the series? Who’s only sassy and sarcastic because it took him FOUR YEARS to mellow out? Who’s described as being one of the most powerful demigods, who a lot of people still consider the scariest? Who’s come into his own as a character from TTC to TSATS? That Nico?
Or Annabeth who’s, “cold and calculating. Doesn’t show emotion or express herself”
Annabeth, who’s the most expressive person in the series? Who cries in EVERY book in the OG series? Whether it be for Luke, or Thalia, or Percy, or Chiron, or a literal DOG? Who expresses passion like no other when it comes to architecture and her other interests? Who’s expressed compassion for people she didn’t know? People who at times posed a threat to her? Who isn’t afraid to be angry, or happy, or snide, or rude, or excited, or scared, or ecstatic? Who’s been unapologetically herself since the moment the series started? That’s who doesn’t show emotion? That’s Annabeth?

As a professor, what tips do you have for notetaking in class? Or just tips for getting the most out of college classes in general. What do professors want to see?
Ooooo this is a good question and unfortunately, I don't have a very nice or neat answer! Ultimately, it depends on the course.
I'll clarify what I mean with a few examples... So, I taught a few sections of an introductory biology lab last semester and I'll be teaching a few sections of a bioethics recitation in this upcoming Spring term. These are two very differnet sorts of classes. The former is more traditionally STEM with an emphasis on a short lecture/presentation (10-20 minutes of content) and then the rest of the time dedicated to group lab-work. In this course, my recommendation to students was to take really good notes during warm-ups. For us, this looked like exam-type practice questions and lab-style practice questions. In a course where you are evaluated primarily on your ability to solve/answer questions, you will most likely be best served by practicing solving those questions. Lots of big lectures utilize some form of Clickers or Kahoot to get students comfortable with material - it was most helpful to me to take notes on these questions. Write them out (either on a device or by-hand, whatever works for you) and take some notes about how you should go about solving them/thinking about them.
Now, for a seminar/discussion/socratic style course more like what I'll be doing in the Spring, I'll highlight two things. One, if you're being asked to read ANYTHING (papers, studies, books, essays, etc.) annotate that shit. Either print out a copy or use a PDF-editor to highlight and jam-pack your margins full of thoughts, feelings, and questions. You truly digest so much more content when you actively engage your brain in annotation. Lost on what, exactly, you should be annotating? Here's a list of suggestions to get you started:
Is the author making an argument? Highlight, underline, or otherwise mark places where they do so.
Don't understand something? Write your question down in the margins!
Find something really frustrating/annoying/disagreeable? Mark it in your margins!
Find something really interesting/engaging/cool? Mark it in your margins!
Two, for in-class notes, you can do a few different things and still reap a bountiful intellectual harvest. I'll be real with you, I never really took "notes" in discussion/seminar type courses. I'm naturally chatty and I have a pretty good memory, so I didn't really need to write much down and I found that doing so distracted me from the actual conversation happening. But if that's not for you, I'd recommend jotting down concepts/themes that reoccur during discussion, things that make you go "yes, amazing! That's so well-put!" and things that make you go "jesus fuck, who let you out in the wild with that perspective?"
Hopefully this is somewhat useful to you, anon! And if others have suggestions they want to chime in with, please do! Ultimately, I'd encourage you to go talk to your professors and ask them this question directly. Different teachers have different ways of teaching and evaluating and might have their own recommendations taylored specifically to the way that they do things. Most professors (if they aren't assholes) will be delighted that you asked and happy to give you pointers!
