All communication with professors has to be official over here to prevent abuse. Phone messages don’t leave a trail that can be investigated, emails do.
Plus I’m pretty sure you could insist on getting a phone number from your university if you didn’t want to share yours with them or if you didn’t even have one, for some reason. That would just lead to an enormous hassle for the university over here, it’s easier to just give every student an email address.
Why are people texting their physics teacher?
What else should they do? Write e-mail like a bunch of cave dwellers?
Or, even worse, PHONE CALLS?! 😬
Go up and talk to them? Why would a child even have a teacher’s phone number?
Or is OP using “teacher” to mean “university lecturer”?
Because the texting generation is old enough to have PhDs and thus old enough to be teachers.
Even my professor in his 50s says we can text him if we are going to be absent from class. Like hell nah man I’m gonna email you.
Yell me you are old and out of touch with modern schools without telling me you are old and out of touch with modern schools.
Modern meaning American?
