like it’s no one’s fault but Y’s but suddenly it’s my problem I’m trying to explain to X and it’s not even necessarily X’s business to know about this particular traumatic experience with Y

“but I worked hard on my capstone project in my online PhD program, why are you calling it a notorious diploma mill that no reputable employer recognizes credentials from” like maybe the reason you struggled in a fake PhD program is bc you’re dumb. And from now on your being dumb ain’t my problem!

the most anti-academic leftists I’ve met in my life. Didn’t even know anti-academic leftists were a thing until I found so many of them on there. They think academics are a leisure class who don’t even have to do the dishes or walk the dog, & that a piece of paper from a diploma mill is a good “PhD”

Google tells me that this person filed in bankruptcy court in 2010…also has another essay about how she had to take a job boxing up bags of chips in a factory after she couldn’t get a rec letter. I don’t really feel bad for this person. Just don’t be nasty to your teachers!

like yes, if I were a thesis director, and a master’s student told me they wanted to use *a book they already wrote* as their thesis project, I’d look at them sideways. And I definitely wouldn’t write a rec letter
