Oh how I love you modern Merlin as a medieval history professor. I can just imagine his students talking about him. "His lectures are great, he talks about it like he was actually there."
"Do NOT bring up Arthuriana he WILL go on an hour long rant and you WILL miss your last train home."
"He has this weird academic beef with Geoffrey Chaucer?!"
"His office reeks of herbs, lord knows what he puts in his morning tea."
"Dude's been teaching here for like 30 years and he still somehow looks 22."
"I swear to you, I saw his eyes turn gold one time during a lecture."
Anyone who loves this idea who also loves Sandman should go immediately to AO3 because there is a plethora of stories describing this scenario except in the framework/canon of Dream and Hobb Gadling.
Also more Merlin fics like this. Many many more. :)
