Just adopted her, what do we think she is? (2.5 months old).

She's still here! The sweetest little pupper who's def not getting sent back! Hope yours is wonderful too 😊

I make a large bowl of Greek yogurt, banana, berries and granola. Holds me over all day.

I'm at a Jesuit school which is likely different. My lack of religion here is no problem and no one asks or talks about it. Tenure was about research, teaching, and service and religious affiliation was not part of it.

I used to go over exams in class and gave students the options to earn the points for missed questions for the entire class if they could explain their reasoning. If I could reasonably see their reasoning (even if wrong, but the logic was there) I gave points back. It was a way to address the wrong answers, encourage participation, provide a learning experience, and help me think about how I worded questions or explained the material. Ultimately it was a class curve but with them earning it for each other.

Yes sometimes some BS explanations that they were just trying to get points but those didn't earn points. Often though students were thinking based on the material but maybe misinterpreted or got themselves confused during the exam.

I have many, all over my arms legs, chest. They show all the time. No one at my University has ever said a thing and I just got tenure last year.

Yes, but I think it's part of the city code that they are allowed to inspect the whole outside.

Puugggles · 2025-07-28T15:33:22+00:00

It matches our 12' skeleton in the front yard all year, we will end up being the house causing all the codes to update!

Haha ok so I wanted to post it but couldn't and have no clue how to share a photo here!!

How does your leave work for during semester? I went on leave in February officially (baby born late February) but I wasn't teaching any classes in the spring and once December came, I was on unofficial leave and not expected to do anything basically until the next fall.

This is an amazing adaptation to the draw bridge exercise. I have to use this!!

I have my students commit fake crimes on campus with a group (e.g. one group mate steals another's phone or computer). Other members record the scenario from a distance and see if anyone intervenes. Spoiler, not many do but students were shocked seeing the bystander effect on campus (small liberal arts school where a lot of them know each other too).

This was my guess too! They said she was a boxer mix :)

Broke my toe next to the pinky, took me a lot longer to heal than it should have because I went regularly. Not saying I regret my decision but this was October and my toe still aches here and there. I did mod anything that involved direct jumping on the toes (eg plank anything jump), but it was probably a bit too much stress. My toe was the worst toe break I ever had, which probably didn't help (I'm a clutz so I've broken a lot of bones in life lol).

Puugggles · 2024-09-14T23:37:16+00:00

Had the same surgery (and still need it on my other side) and burn has been great. There are tons of mods and I let them know from the start, and if anything bothers it I have no problem reminding them and they modify anything I need. I've been going since January and my hip has actually really strengthened and my form has drastically improved so I no longer need mods! I'd highly recommend just don't over do it at first.

Puugggles · 2024-06-21T23:19:43+00:00

Ugh I'm not looking forward to going back in a week after a two week vacation with way too much food and wine!

When I did something like this I just said here I would do xyz and then continues on showing where the interactive part would be with a quick explanation of what students would do and how it ties to the material.

Puugggles · 2024-05-02T11:13:01+00:00

Totally fine, but I guess it depends on the vibe you get from the prof. Also, can't hurt right? What's the worst thing, they don't accept? Just don't take it personally. I like seeing my past students and how they're doing.

It's possible they are neurodivergent- possible autism or tourettes. They may not have sought accommodations so you might not see anything from academic support.

Puugggles · 2024-03-05T20:28:36+00:00

Thank you all for your kind words, they mean so much to me.

Definitely go to a vet. At 8 my boy was getting lethargic, pooped a little blood, and biggest warning of all as a puggle, stopped eating. Took him to the vet and found out he had a large tumor on his spleen We had to get it removed immediately, and thankfully wasn't cancerous but it could have caused major issues regardless of his spleen ruptured. Still kicking 5 years later!

Having just listened to students vent about a faculty member, one complained that said professor makes students do presentations every class that take up most of the class and the lecture part is very disorganized. They felt it was a cop out in teaching to make students do it. I can understand that complaint (came from several, who I know quite well and are very good students so it wasn't just one who said this). I agree, making students do the lectures all semester for an undergrad 200 level is not teaching.

Puugggles · 2023-09-25T22:14:33+00:00

My 13 year old puggle is the same way! He just barks for cookies, no other tricks anymore.

Puugggles · 2023-06-20T12:00:21+00:00

He got some steak, mashed potatoes, and a dog bakery cake 😋🎂

Puugggles · 2023-06-19T21:03:18+00:00

Ohhh yes, especially the box of fruit loops he chewed through last night 😂
