As CYE founder and CEO Reuven Aronashvili joined his first class at TAU in Linear Algebra, the professor began shouting at him because he thought he was the repairman, there to fix the air conditioning that had been out for weeks.
In a recent interview with Calcalist, Aronashvili, the son of two Georgian immigrants to Israel, said, “Maybe I looked a little different”. I had a lot of encounters in my life where people treated me unfairly,” he said, “but I don’t think the best way to go is to whine about it, you can joke about it as well. I asked him how the AC was every time I saw that professor afterward and I ended up complaining about it.
