My brother told me online deans make less than 30,000 a year which is probably why my dean is being an idiot. I read my thesis. Yes when I made 2 hardbound copies I made a third for myself. There is NO grammar mistake!!! When I last emailed the dean I told her I would love to have my thesis reviewed by someone else. I HOPE the online director reads it. My director AND the dean of education are going to read it for sure.

I noticed exactly 1 thing I'd change in my thesis. On page 12 I list an assumption that all participants were honest in their answers. I would change in to with. It is still grammatically correct to use in, I just think with would've been better.

The capstone coach complimented my writing with her initial assessment. She emailed me that it was written well. The content is ENTIRELY original. In my initial review the writing coach sent me a sample of a paper written in a certain format. I made my entire paper comply with that format. Writing is my strength. I aced as in received -As for EVERY paper I submitted in EVERY MBA class!!! I don't get what her motive is right now. She is going to answer for this. Just because I did this quickly is NOT a reason to react like this.

When you do something well it can be done quickly. Why does she care and why does she have a problem with this?

IRONY!!!

I have to teach writing and require our students to produce an APA paper in a week NEXT week. I get to polish my powerpoint presentations this weekend. I talked to my Dean of Education about this several times. I talked to the writing instructor about this several times. This is the drastic action we HAVE to take now since it's not being corrected.

My director finally said she wants all the students to have at least one opportunity to write an APA paper even if they never have to do that the entire time they spend in school. I was sick of having to correct the students when I would demand adherence to APA format AFTER taking the writing class. They would tell me they weren't taught that way in their initial class and I would tell them I was right. NOT a good thing for the students.

This is why we're doing this now. Next week our writing teacher is NOT teaching classes. I am instead. I think I'll go and give my director a copy of my thesis she can read at her leisure today IF she has any.

Helaman 13

 30 And now remember, remember, my brethren, that whosoever perisheth, perisheth unto ahimself; and whosoever doeth iniquity, doeth it unto himself; for behold, ye are bfree; ye are permitted to act for yourselves; for behold, God hath given unto you acknowledge and he hath made you free.
 31 He hath given unto you that ye might aknow good from evil, and he hath given unto you that ye might bchoose life or death; and ye can do good and be crestored unto that which is good, or have that which is good restored unto you; or ye can do evil, and have that which is evil restored unto you.

I REALLY don't get why the online business dean is treating me like this. I don't think she expected me to finish my thesis as quickly as I told her I would. I can't wait for someone else to read what I submitted starting with my director. If the online director reads it too that will be very nice. If they consult my capstone coach they will be schooled!!! This is making me so upset. I don't know why she is acting this way. If I felt I deserved a C I would NOT have a problem taking one. I know my ability. I don't have to work as hard as a lot of people. That doesn't mean I should be penalized for being a proficient writer. I can produce quality writing quickly. We are NOT being graded on effort!!! I know I need to calm down. I just want to rip her to shreds right now. She is seriously attacking my biggest STRENGTH. IF SHE THINKS SHE CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS SHE IS WRONG!!!

Help Them Aim High - Pres. Henry B. Eyring

“‘SILENCE, ye fiends of the infernal pit. In the name of Jesus Christ I rebuke you, and command you to be still; I will not live another minute and hear such language. Cease such talk, or you or I die THIS INSTANT!’”
Of that experience, Elder Pratt wrote, “Dignity and majesty have I seen butonce, as it stood in chains, at midnight, in a dungeon in an obscure village of Missouri.”3
I LOOOVE this!!! Bold righteousness is something I like VERY much. 

I pray for the help to handle the whole C grade well. If I thought I turned in C work I would NOT dispute this BUT I sure as hell DIDN'T!!!

I feel like lashing out but I know that isn't effective. I am so angry at my business dean. I want someone, ANYONE else to review my thesis. Writing is easy for me. I have the training and experience to back this up. I am going to do my best to be respectful but I DISAGREE with her evaluation and I am confident ANYONE else will too.
