The Littlest Professor: Professor or Personal Tutor
http://littlestprof.blogspot.com/2009/12/professor-or-personal-tutor.html
On the issues, concerns, and thoughts of being a young tenure-track professor at a small liberal arts college. Wednesday, December 16, 2009. Professor or Personal Tutor. What is the professor's role in helping students? Posted by The Littlest Professor. December 16, 2009 at 9:10 PM. My thinking is that the students who are struggling are intimidated by the very people that can help them succeed, whether that be in my class or the rest of life. So I try to make myself less intimidating. On the other hand,...

The Littlest Professor: Etiquette
http://littlestprof.blogspot.com/2009/11/etiquette.html
On the issues, concerns, and thoughts of being a young tenure-track professor at a small liberal arts college. Sunday, November 15, 2009. Rightfully or wrongly, I do believe that academics are held to a higher standard than a layperson. We do have more education than the average person. We are leaders in innovation, technology, and thought. Academics have a huge role in society in creating new products, arguing new ideas, and changing current culture. Posted by The Littlest Professor. Hmmm I expect it mo...

On the issues, concerns, and thoughts of being a young tenure-track professor at a small liberal arts college. Saturday, January 16, 2010. 50 Things every MSU Teacher Should and Should not do. I came across 50 Things every MSU Teacher Should and Should not do. Today In general, there are a few helpful reminders in that list for every professor. I'll comment on more items in the next few entries. 5 If a student shows up late, don't count them absent. They still made the effort to show up. A young tenure-t...

The Littlest Professor: Balancing Act
http://littlestprof.blogspot.com/2009/11/balancing-act.html
On the issues, concerns, and thoughts of being a young tenure-track professor at a small liberal arts college. Friday, November 27, 2009. How these three components are balanced depends upon the institution that the professor is at. My friends at research institutions are expected to have a 45% (research) - 45% (teaching) - 10% (service) load. I haven't asked my friends at SLACs what their load is expected to be like, but it would definitely be less on the research and more on the service. Careers advice...

The Littlest Professor: December 2009
http://littlestprof.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
On the issues, concerns, and thoughts of being a young tenure-track professor at a small liberal arts college. Monday, December 28, 2009. Passive Aggressive Holiday Greetings. I'm not sure if it's because of the holidays or if it's just coincidence, but so far some of the students that I have had in the fall semester have decided to let me know that they're dissatisfied with their grades with passive aggressive holiday greetings. Until I receive that sign from Him, I will continue to "judge" the students.

The Littlest Professor: The State of Hellos
http://littlestprof.blogspot.com/2009/12/state-of-hellos.html
On the issues, concerns, and thoughts of being a young tenure-track professor at a small liberal arts college. Wednesday, December 9, 2009. The State of Hellos. Panic that I usually see. Now I need to add making chitchat on my list of things-to-do. Should it come before or after teaching, research, and service? So far, it's been coming after those three items, which means that often at the end of the day, I haven't gotten around to doing it. I guess I need to re-prioritize my duties. The State of Hellos.
