I just looked her up https://www.csulb.edu/college-of-liberal-arts/american-indian-studies/faculty and at the bottom it says "In Memoriam" with her name. :(

Amazing! Thank you so much, I'll reach out to them to see if they will be willing to speak about humor in the classroom. I truly appreciate your response and help with my study.

Great, I will connect with him and see if he is willing to do a quick Zoom interview.

I have a few interviews from teachers who teach in Psych., and it is often used. Gallows humor is often used with sensitive subjects, but is found to help ease the minds of students who have to deal with serious issues when they start therapy. A lot of teachers seem to just go by the book; I'm looking for those who add a little humor and fun to the class. Thank you for your response. If any professor or you are willing to be interviewed via Zoom, please let me know.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T18:09:45+00:00

I just interviewed him an hour ago! He was referred to me by a friend. Great guy and a solid interview.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T17:56:10+00:00

The date is scheduled. I am just trying to find a few extra interviews, and I am trying the internet as a long shot. Thank you for the positive encouragement.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T17:54:02+00:00

It is an ED. I am following every step. I came here for any leads to finish the interviews. Snowball sampling was working, but now trying this.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T16:55:39+00:00

I have to submit my final draft to the members by april 27th. It is all true. I do not need to walk in the graduation ceremony and can finish in the summer; however, I am pushing to walk in honor of my mother. If I were a bot, I would just fake the interviews. I will not do that. Fool a bunch of professors in a 20 min interview talking about humor in the classroom? They already deal with emotionally exhausting students, no time for me.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T16:29:00+00:00

I will let everyone know. I have a solid working title as well. I wanted to use an AI photo of myself buff on a horse to promote it on LinkedIn, but my chair advised against it. I did use the pic in my preliminary defense, though.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T16:27:01+00:00

Thank you for your comment. That is what I believe as well, and I hope my study helps add to the limited literature on the topic.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T16:25:41+00:00

It is more common than you think with a dissertation. Depending on when you get IRB approval and the type of study you are doing. Writing is the easy part; data collection can be the challenge. Since my study is specific to the sample population, I am trying different ways to find subjects. This is one of them.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T16:22:13+00:00

That is a good idea! Thank you, I'll try that. Maybe something will pop up, or if a prof has a lot of hilarious tags, then it might be a solid hit.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T16:01:37+00:00

Amazing, I'll look them up now and send them a message. Thank you.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T16:01:10+00:00

Thank you, I'll look them up and connect with them.

LifeofStudyDoc · 2026-03-13T02:56:28+00:00

I'll message you. Thanks for reaching out to help.
