1.Who is a faculty adviser?

2.How is slack-jawed? What feeling does it present?

Slack-jawed refers to slow talking country people who drawl - slack-jawed yokel (local)

Thanks folks!

A faculty adviser is a teacher or professor assigned to advise a student about what courses to take and possibly other decisions related to the student's progress in school.

WRONG on 'slack-jawed'.
From dictionary.cambridge.org CALD - "with your mouth open in surprise".

having the mouth open, esp. as an indication of astonishment, bewilderment, etc."
