they finally did it for the last speech (a speech in Japanese about why people should study abroad at GSU) and not only are they more visibly comfortable, but the class response has been amazing!

i had an international/exchange student this semester who is returning to their Japan over the summer.

given that context, I told them they could do one of their last 2 speeches in Japanese if they wanted since that's the mode their public speaking would likely take.

my most common feedback to authors in reviews:

"the citations are overwhelmingly white. if you're going to engage [marginalized concept/method/theory/framework], then your citations should reflect that same commitment."

I don't understand why it's so hard to understand

screengrab from a group.me chat with dr. mason's students. student shared a meme saying, " 'you're soo manipulative' god forbid i use my persuasive language skills."
student's message reads: god forbid i acutally apply what i'm learning from dr. mason's lecture.

advice from the talc powder lawsuit trenches: please make and keep a list of 1) all your addresses from birth on, 2) all your employment from birth on, 3) how many times you buy a product per month from birth on, and 4) how and where you apply baby powder from birth on. πŸ€ͺ
