Carol:
I am not sure that I would worry too much about the issue of the
difficulty of remembering student names. I was at lunch with an honor's
student that I didn't know very well. To make small talk, I asked her
the names of her instructors. She couldn't name a single instructor
after having attended classes for two weeks. She even commented on how
sad was this inability given that all her instructors knew her name.
I don't think she had a particular medical condition (other than
adolescent myopia) because I routinely encounter students who can't name
their instructors at the end of the semester.
