- found Black Box - in panic bag in trunk of car, with backups of dissertation, two black pens, and fleece blanket. is that really all I figured I needed to survive a grad school apocalypse?
- where did these papers come from? did I assign them?
- why are students breaking down now? must drink caffeine in preparation for grade arguments
grad school apocalypse. that one almost made me fall off my chair.
ReplyDeleteIs there a pipeline for caffeine in your wing of grading hell? Not in mine, desperately needed.
ReplyDeleteMy semi-trained rats can't even figure out how to nibble on the awful papers. What good are they?
"Grad School Apocalypse" would make a great Flash game...
ReplyDeleteAnd sadly, no caffeine pipeline. It probably doesn't help that I don't drink coffee (which makes me a heretic in several parts of the country).
