Hi ita's sister! I'm shocked at how long it's been since a bunch of us went out to brunch in DC. How the heck am I old enough to have been an adult that long ago!?!?
Natter 69: Practically names itself.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Jessica, I don't get it: they gave you a gift last year, and this year they want you to give them back the gift they gave you in order for them to loan you something that is only to be used for work purposes?
That strikes me as... not a reward. And what would you be required to do if the old iPad had been lost or damaged? What if you have porn on it?
That all seems really sketchy to me.
W/rt ita's sister's problem, I bet the project was student-run, student-designed, and never got anywhere near an IRB. Either that, or it's a complete scam with no actual academic association. Very very weird.
Hi, ita's sister!
That's entrapment into career-ending situations. WTF.
God, this. My mouth actually dropped open at ita's first post. So frigging wrong wrong WRONG.
YAY, JILLI!
I survived Career Day, no one fell asleep (noticeably) or walked out, and I managed to ferret out a bunch of newbie writers, not all of them girls either. One boy has self-published the first in his 24-book fantasy series. He was sort of a trip.
I also managed to work Supernatural into the discussion with both groups. Yay?
Also, HI ITA'S SISTER!

Well, I can't imagine why they would do that outside of classwork? Student-instigated? Seems odd. But if as part of a class, the professor should know the IRB requirements and should be censured/disciplined for not enforcing them.

Dunno, but weird shit happens sometimes.
I had my "WHAT" reaction to its !'s sister's news out loud while riding the bus several hours ago. Holy hell.

Congratulations, Jilli!!!
Congrats, Jilli!!!
Hi, sibling o' ita !
How the heck am I old enough to have been an adult that long ago!?!?
I was about to claim I wasn't an adult at the time, but I was the oldest one at the table, wasn't I?
Oh, and I take back any nice stuff I said. Too much work to go back and edit, but must maintain my persona of gruff.

IME, students sometimes do whatever the fuck they want to do and don't tell faculty shit. A long time ago, a student organized project in one of my classes got a complaint from one of their study participants to the IRB. I shut that shit down on the spot. They all hated me for it and complained to my department chair but he in essence told them to go fuck themselves.
