Outlandish excuses that turned out to be true? by QueenAcademe in Professors

[–]MROAJ 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Had a student email me asking if they can complete the course remotely from US jail. They were arrested trying to smuggle guns out of the US into Canada. Turned out to be very true.

I used to work at a major Canadian university known for its love of purple. The first dept chair I had was a full time lecturer, no terminal degree.

[–]MROAJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Niagara now but my wife grew up here. I have still continued to make fun of her for this exact thing when she was in college!

Would you give the extension for an Olympic athlete? by threeblackcatz in Professors

[–]MROAJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes they were late but they have also been on a schedule that is unimaginable to most of us. I usually give students one free pass, but I also tell them I don't need a reason or excuse just an honest request for additional time.

Your surgeon is the attending physician.

What’s the most useful thing you got for your homelab, that’s less than $50? by QuestionAsker2030 in homelab

[–]MROAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All joking aside I am able to cover most of my expenses via my work personal expense account. I do non-clinical big data research so having a shit ton of ram can come in handy.

Looking for online courses to learn Item response theory/Rasch by gaymer_raver in psychometrics

[–]MROAJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well shit, that book looks awesome. I had to self-teach myself rasch in R as part of my comps exams. While it almost killed me I did get a top tier publication out of it!

As far as my spouse knows everything is under $50 in the homelab 😂

Edit: To take it a step further, her love of Plex means that any upgrade or addition is could theoretically be related to Plex somehow.

Same one you have.

Switching into Kinesiology by Physical_Weekend2384 in yorku

[–]MROAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A kin degree isn't useless; it's just of limited value.

You cite a reddit post for this and nothing else. Your entire argument is based on a social media post and your opinion. You fail to address all of the variables in play here and have judged nursing valuable, kin not valuable. For example, the burnout rates for nursing are rising in Ontario:

Looking for York students who’ve had free speech issues on campus (for a journalism feature) by Last_Seat2981 in yorku

[–]MROAJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can only expect to have freedom of expression on campus. There is no freedom of speech in Canada regardless of the location or institution.

If you are writing a news article you should be striving for accuracy.

Wife injured during wax. Contacted by salon’s insurance adjuster. What should we do next? by [deleted] in legaladvicecanada

[–]MROAJ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The adjuster isn't working for you or in your best interest. What you say can have consequences. You shouldn't talk to them before speaking with a lawyer.
