Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary
And ... yet another high-level administrator is running from the sinking ship. But @ass_deans tells me that all is well, so there's that.
Stranded Associate retweeted
parents brought in breakfast burritos for teachers to show appreciation. School posts a picture of a group eating them. Number of people in the picture that are teachers: zero 😂
Academia is under attack from DC. My university's response:
Ah, yes ... it's time for the annual threats by @ass_deans to attend Commencement "or else".
Apparently, "rotated out" is the new HR euphemism for "fired". I wish people would just speak plainly.
How many professors does it take to figure out how to login to a lecture hall computer that requires 2FA?
Well, there it is. Years of pay freezes or token pay increases have finally taken effect. My spouse, who works part-time, now has a higher salary than I do.
Last year, NewProf: "Let's all donate to the Employee Capital Campaign! We work for a great school!" This year, NewProf: "I know we're all paid like shit, but can all we donate to the capital campaign anyways to get @ass_deans off our backs?"
Just filled out Yet Another Employee Satisfaction Survey. Waiting for @ass_deans to tell us that the predictable (horrible) results are all the fault of the faculty.
Our business school is changing the name of one of their courses because it has "DEI" in its name. They aren't changing a damn thing about the content of the course. But nobody wants to be the next victim of the Eye of Sauron. (sigh)
Me: traveling at a conference, doing conference things @ChairDepartment, 9:00am: "Please certify that you are in compliance with the DoE order on race by 5pm today." Me:
Adult kid living at home: "I won't be around V-Day night; I'm visiting friends in [nearby town]." Me and spouse: "yay!" Adult kid today: "oh, my plans changed, I'm not going until Saturday." Me:
Email from @ass_deans: "Over 100 of you haven't submitted your grades that are due tomorrow! This is a crisis! Get your grades in!" Me: "um, that's what I'm doing tonight, and planned on doing tonight for months now".
Campus awards ceremony last week. @ass_deans is reading the list of nominees. @ass_deans mispronounces everyone's award titles and laughs it off, saying "nobody knows what these people do anyways".
Today's Faculty Senate meeting:
Today's task: writing a recommendation later for someone in my department. I hired him as an assistant professor; now he's passing me in rank to become a full.
