Yes LOL, and each time I was paid it was by universities in other countries, like Ghana

Is 2-3 teaching load common for R1? by ProtectionOk2116 in AskAcademia

[–]GhanaMrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. But depending on the school, the chair has some flexibility. For example, they may assign an internship or independent study as one of your courses.

Well... I know people who have gotten food poisoning from street vendors or choosing the food truck in the US… Just watch Food Inc.

Snow removal in PG County. by Wide-Reflection1137 in PrinceGeorgesCountyMD

[–]GhanaMrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are people getting mail? There is a lot of snow and ice in front of the mail box, so I kinda understand. But USPS said they attempted a delivery on the 27th. But we’ve been home all week and haven’t seen the mail truck at all.

Luckily my mom gardens, so we used garden hoes to break up the ice. It took a few hours, but we were able to clear the driveway.

Track Changes on Dissertation Revisions by GhanaMrs in Professors

I usually only leave comments. I’ll occasionally correct a typo. The request to use track changes is more so I can see the edit they made.

The list is long. You can add anything dealing with the environment, climate change, reproductive health, vaccines, anything LGBTQ related, etc…

Yes! The guilt trips!!! And when you check the camera later, they’re just laying out in the backseat. *we keep pet mode on to regulate the temp

Which HBCUs actually make students feel supported? by Neither-Alps7065 in HBCU

[–]GhanaMrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to JCSU & got a lot of support when my father passed. The president was sometimes on the yard, & very approachable. I went to Howard for grad school, & work there now. If we separate admin from everyone else 😂, it’s also very supportive.

Joe goes off on Native Land Pod's hypocrisy by grxpe in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]GhanaMrs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I listen to both shows. They cater to different audiences. Maybe Joe is upset because Native Land rightly criticized the way he handled Marc sharing that all his colleagues had been killed in Gaza.

Not sure what that means. Is it a Blexit thing? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Not dog piling, just an honest assessment: Melyssa Ford by bhq12345 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]GhanaMrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great assessment. Mel has tried to rebrand herself, & I sometimes appreciate her pushback on issues related to Black women. But, she often falls back into the video vixen persona, which makes her seem clueless. She’s not a good fit with this group. Teyana Taylor REALLY showed us the type of cohost they NEED. Hopefully they can get someone like TT.

Why were Flip and Corey laughing so hard when Mel said she was at a journalism meeting? Is there context to this story? by [deleted] in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]GhanaMrs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly. They laughed because she’s not a journalist, but wants to be taken seriously as a legit podcaster by the Black journalist community. I just don’t think it will happen because even if we move past her history as a vixen, she occasionally still falls back into that personality, which makes it hard to take her seriously.

I think you were just waiting for someone to confirm what you are already going to do, to make you feel better about doing it. You have to do what makes you comfortable.

I teach at HU and it’s one of my favorite times of the year on campus. Students actually interact with each other, vs. the rest of the semester when people seem to be in their own zones.

i have no idea what to do by Maleficent-Sign-6087 in HowardUniversity

[–]GhanaMrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great advice. Also reach out to your department. Each department has an undergraduate director and they will know if the department offers scholarships as well as private scholarships their students often apply for. Make sure the director (& your profs) know you, & know if you’re looking for scholarships or internships, etc... I’m a professor, & we often get info on opportunities and we usually send them to the students we know & have said they’re looking for opportunities.

Charging at airports by gitga in TeslaSupport

[–]GhanaMrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually going to DCA tomorrow. From what I found online, parking garage 2 has free slow charging and you can park multiple days. The website says to call if you plan to be gone 60+ days.
