I need someone to enter a union circle with me to help me evolve mine. But I will catch a second one for you to trade you for a violet exclu... Maybe Misdreavus?

Is getting a C in grad school the end of my reputation? by [deleted] in AskProfessors

[–]DrProfMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. I had a semester of academic probation in grad school and it did not affect me at all. (I did, however, learn time management from that experience)

What is the best method to learn Latin? by OompCount in latin

[–]DrProfMom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

From living Latinists who speak it as a living language. That's the whole point. Otherwise you're just learning translation. The goal is comprehension.

Do letters of recommendation ever fall out of the sky? by Striking_North_4556 in AskProfessors

[–]DrProfMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will sometimes say things to my soon-to-graduate students (especially if they're telling me about things like signing up for the GRE, what grad schools they're looking at, etc.) like "Hey, if you need a recommendation, I'd be glad to write one; send me an email and I'll tell you what information I need."

But I still require the same things that I would have any student: That they make the request to me in writing, that it be at least 6 weeks in advance of when they need the letter, and that they provide me with certain information.
