      Prof: I think everyone can hear me, I don’t need the microphone right, you people in the back? Me (from the back): This is a 300 person class and huge lecture hall! Please don’t ask people to disclose their accessibility needs and just USE. THE. MICROPHONE. Prof: ok I guess

      it's really not as simple as it seems - you try lecturing to hundreds of bored uni students staring! it might be a little irrational to fear the microphone, but it's also a totally human response that happens when nervous; no need to hate anyone for being a bit shy or anxious.

      Sometimes it's anxiety; most of the time it's convenience: they don't want to be bothered with speaking into a mic and would rather be able to gesture, move around, etc. without worrying about head position/facing. Practice using the mic. It's part of the job.

      sure we do practice, but still. And actually they have mics now that you can pin to your shirt. it's just silly to denounce lecturers who are mic shy - lecturers are just people and you might be surprised at how many aspects of this job you receive absolutely no training for!

      But what is the point of giving a lecture if you don’t want to make sure the entire audience can hear you? Esp if you work in education, your main goal should be to make sure *all* your students are able to follow the lecture, you’re there for them, not the other way around.

      Yeah I'm not saying become an expert on mic technique or generally be the world's greatest public speaker I'm saying if you don't like using mics, suck it up and use the mic anyway

      My annoyance is with people thinking this is a matter of personal preference, an aesthetic choice, like it's optional for the people in the back (or anyone with hearing or auditory processing problems) to be able to hear you

      It would be one thing if the people who just don't like the mic actually were skilled at projecting and maintaining volume (which still doesn't make using the mic optional) But they usually aren't, they're the people who are generally bad at speaking and need the mic more

          (Also, even if you're a great public speaker, that doesn't help me record/broadcast the lecture since I need you on the mic to pick up anything. But that's sort of a side topic.)

          And that's an accessibility issue too, aside from the more general topic of recording stuff for later consumption - the harder you make it to record you the harder it is to get an accurate transcription for those who can't hear at all, etc
