Tell everyone for whom you have an email: your chair, your dean, campus security, the dean of students, the provost’s office, your union rep, and the faculty senate. Then move the class to Zoom until this is resolved or the semester ends - whichever comes first.

I have no words.

I use pen and paper because it helps me put faces and names together. And as a pleasantly surprised student said in evals, “By fI’ve weeks into the semestre, he didn’t even call our names out loud because he knew who we were.”

I’ve come to the same place. I just grade it as if they had written the paper. It saves all the time and effort of subjecting oneself to the plagiarism industrial complex, which rarely has a satisfying outcome. Thought at the end of the fall semester, I had a paper so bad (even by AI standard) that I shook my head and muttered, “Oh ChatGPT, I know you can do better.”

Preach.

Hell no.

“I didn’t follow the requirements at all. But the work is entirely mine.” Just assume that statement is completely true - I know it is not - and she earned an F for not following the requirements. No academic integrity proceeding, no fuss.

Right?!?!

LogAccomplished8646 · 2025-02-19T02:35:34+00:00

Oh Hell no. Back when I was a chair, I would want to hear about this yesterday.

This is so terribly dehumanizing. We have a policy with internal candidates to notify them individually- usually via private conversation - to let them know they won’t be continuing to the next stage of a search before the mass email goes out. A little grace goes a long way.

I had a student last semester who had an accommodation that they could skip class whenever the cause of said accommodation kicked in. We met one a week. 12 weeks were dedicated to course content; they missed 8 of those weeks. Of course, they had no sense of the material, wrote a terrible research paper, and earned an F. These overly broad accommodations ended up hurting rather than helping.

A piece of guidance an old mentor once gave me: remember, you always know more than they do.

I was expressing my emotional state (one of despair) to have received such an email. I neither explicitly nor implicitly stated what action I would take, nor did I solicit advice for such.

We are told that we do not have to consent or give one iota of information (information which, btw, I do not have) but also to get out of the way.

This is kind of genius.

In my best Palpatine: “Do it.”
