How to write a COHE “first person” essay: a multiple choice guide
Via BitchPhD, this hilarious post at The Little Professor:
3. I’m terribly, terribly unhappy, because
- I thought life after tenure would be bliss, and it’s just the same-old, same-old
- my colleagues fail to appreciate my scintillating qualities
- there’s a poststructuralist/Marxist/cultural materialist/New Historicist/Lacanian/ deconstructionist/other in my department
- there isn’t a poststructuralist/Marxist/cultural materialist/New Historicist/Lacanian/ deconstructionist/other in my department
- there are politics! in academia!
- if I had been born fifty years ago, there would have been no politics! in academia!
- if I had been born fifty years ago, there would have been my kind of politics! in academia!
- academic work isn’t all about Twoo Wuv for your subject
- people are so mean to me
- students don’t appreciate all the effort I put into teaching them…
i LOVE bitchphd!
