I guess treating the college like it's dead is saying the quiet part out loud. Just gonna kill the 2nd biggest college and pretend it's fine and that college students magically appear at age 18
They've been treating us like we're dead since January. Can't access our foundation funds. The library hauled off stuff for the archives and they're already shredding files.
My contact has five weeks left. We're trying to get some money spent and the business office says it doesn't want to take a risk on my department or college. Wow, here I thought we actually still exist until next spring but I guess nah. Which checks out.
I could quilt and bake for a year after the last year of total shit show
Nope but they only send AI generated emails about bold pillars and extraordinary odessies🤷🏻♀️
It used to seem like Ed reforms were a pendulum but we seem real stuck in the accountability machine. I find myself just kind of yelling at them, "Is the purpose of schooling to generate test scores?"
In the last fourish years, it's gotten harder and harder to get my admin students to think about human flourishing as both the experience and outcome of school. It is demoralizing.
There's nothing like moving to make you admit that you will never fit in that again and you probably can toss your box of dissertation now that it's been 10 years and 16 days
I am begging you, as an editor, not everything is a case study
I can vouch for the cookie house, one year I lived next door to it!
The Republicana definitely started the war and why gas costs more.
In response to
Republican Sen. Roger Marshall wants Americans to stop complaining about gas prices because they're necessary for "national security."
"I'm sorry the gas prices are going up, but help is on its way, and your national security, yes, is even more important than your pocketbook."
I was unaware I still needed Noah Wyle in my life
😂
Nebraska, honestly not for children
This is a digitally altered version of Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper,” showing Jesus and the disciples seated at a long table, but with all of their faces blurred or obscured. The central figure in Jesus’s place wears modern clothing, including a red shirt, a blue cloak, and a stethoscope around his neck, visually presenting him as a Dr. Rabinovich from HBO’s hit series The Pitt.
Fans of The Pitt are loving this
My last travel report using the travel system that is worse than Conquer was accepted on the first try. I feel like there should be a prize for that
My undergrad 10 week terms... I still haven't figured out 15 weeks. I arm crawl through the last 3. Especially with a conference in April.
I cannot believe the number of educators rushing to it. Meanwhile, tech bros are promising to make us obsolete with AI
Seriously...and COVID in between, which derailed my research for 2+ years
I told my chair in like year 2 or 3 if I didn't get tenure it was going to be Trump's fault... I started in 2016 😶 Pretty sure what has happened in T2.0 has been way worse since my uni just basically killed tenure
Listen, if your program has 2 students, maybe we need to talk. Cutting programs with hundreds of students? It's not financial. NU had 28 mill sitting around center admin and 120 mill sitting around at the foundation
Last time we actually hiked, I practically had to drag the soon to be ex off a mountain after he didn't bring water (like I told him), didn't dress appropriately and insisted on carrying jars of pipe tobacco while hiking.
This feels like an apt metaphor for this year. I
Boy bye
This is why you need multiple kinds of chairs, one for every mood.
