Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

I can't imagine why they would do that outside of classwork

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Congrats, Jilli!!!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

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.

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.

Not that this situation is at all funny or amusing, but I just flashed on the Leverage episode with the student run psychology experiment that was definitely outside any IRB guidelines. ita !'s sister needs to contact Nate Ford stat!
