Today my prof picked up my markers & asked me if they were mine. Then she picked up my binder & asked me if it was mine. When I asked why she asked, she said "just wondering" & walked away. Am I wrong to be offended or am I blowing this out of proportion?

Did you have your stuff on the floor or something? A lot of professors are a little goofy from what I have seen. Who knows why half of them do what they do? I would just forget about it if you can. Otherwise, I would pay a visit to her office and tell her you did not appreciate what she did. +5

I don't think you are wrong to be offended. She wasn't just "wondering". She either suspected they weren't yours or she was making some other point. This wasn't a human behavior or psychology course was it? Maybe she was illustrating a point? If not, she was an a$$, and if she did this in front of the class she owes you a public apology.
