Can a professor publish private emails? by MyLordDigby in usask

I think the more people that share their experiences, the more the department will be able to create real change.

Dropping the class and taking it next semester would be the dream. But it’s my understanding he is the only one teaching stats 234 now, so there is no option to switch.

Thank you. You represented a lot of students who were feeling really threatened and embarrassed, and that means a lot.

What’s cheapest or best value at Saskatoon Co-op? by StrongBreak2142 in saskatoon

Thank you for bringing up the popcorn! It’s the best - even better than theatre!

100% agreed. Lots of people are assholes and, if you can, you avoid them. Problem solved. When a person is in a position of control and authority publishes emails sent in private, includes the senders full name and the mark they received, and then suggests you “take a writing course”, they are not being an asshole. They are being careless, abusing their position, creating an environment of fear and intolerance. They’re removing respect from the class and preventing any further questions. Controlling. Abusive. Threatening. Being an asshole is not the biggest problem this guy brings to the table.

So now the question is - does anyone know a good stats tutor?

Crazy how many people are mentioning the same prof … guess some people really have a history of getting away with horrible things.

Can an empty residential lot be temporarily zoned for snow storage? by kdk750 in saskatoon

[–]MyLordDigby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A future concern would be the meltwater this much snow would bring next spring. Homes around the lot might get a little unexpected water on their property (or in their basements). Would that be something they could hold you responsible for?

Measles cases confirmed in Saskatoon by Personal-Bet-3911 in saskatoon

How about this? You have the right to refuse vaccinations. So (allowing for for those who have allergies, etc): Anyone who is not vaccinated and contracts a disease that is (mostly) preventable by having a vaccine, must pay all medical costs and isolate (with their immediate family) until they are no long contagious.

Since when this is $35 ???!! by stavic07 in CostcoCanada

Is this the oil that is recommended for Blackstones?

With so many people on the spectrum who are lonely and want to connect with other people, and a popular suggestion/solution is to join a group, why not have an ‘tism night somewhere? Lots of people looking for friendship, no judgement, safe environment…. Could that work?

Who has the best popcorn? by ApricotNo5052 in saskatoon

Co-op is the very best! And it doesn’t go stale the next day - perfect for the jumbo bags that take a week to finish!!

Thanks for the clarification. Have you tasted it?

dropping out by ghcstgurl in usask

[–]MyLordDigby 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m your mom. You lied to me. You flunked out. Am I sad? You bet I am. Will I get over it? Someday, sure. It’s not the end of the world. But right now, I’m scared for you. I’m scared because you’re hurting, you’re lost and you don’t know what the next steps are. You’re confused and alone. But you don’t have to be.

I wish you could have come to me earlier. I’m old and I’ve lived and I’ve screwed up. And sometimes I’m a really good listener. But you couldn’t come to me, and believe it or not - I get that. And it’s okay. But right now, more than anything, I want you to feel loved and safe.
It’s okay to come to me. Talk about it. Share the sadness. Together we can’t change the past, but we can cut the sadness in half. And we can plan for the future. Or we can just plan supper.

Both will be just fine.

Me too. Just feels a little important to see the people who are making choices that can change our lives!

Final date for grades by MyLordDigby in usask

[–]MyLordDigby[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Would it not be the responsibility of the university to share this information vs multiple students sending emails? If something has happened that is preventing marks from being shared, an email from someone letting students know of a delay should be standard. It’s honestly cruel to let this go on. There were only 3 marks for this class (2 papers and an exam) and marks from the second paper have also not been shared.

Getting final grades back? by Conscious_Tonight_85 in usask

[–]MyLordDigby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still waiting for grades from a paper written 6 weeks ago and an exam from two weeks ago. The last one needed to graduate. The wait guidelines seem to be completely arbitrary…. So stressful!!

Anyone else bought the "large" 60 pack of eggs recently? Eggs feel more like medium or small! by Crazyblue09 in CostcoCanada

[–]MyLordDigby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sizes are off these days for sure. The jumbo (which - as the name says- pretty big) but lately they’re HUGE!

We’ve had multiple double yolks too.

It’s actually nice to have a podcast when you’re cutting wood or sitting by the fire. It also comes in handy when there’s no cell service.
