I Will Never Visit My Parents Again | Grief, Pain, and Fear Never Killed Anybody
https://rwrelationships.wordpress.com/2014/09/04/never-visit-again
Grief, Pain, and Fear Never Killed Anybody. I Will Never Visit My Parents Again. I just realized that, with Dad gone, I will never again drive up “to see the folks.” Now there’s just one folk. Now I join those people who speak about their mother, not because they favor Mom over Dad, but because Mom is all that’s left. Dad, himself, indulged multiple priorities that were not of a clearly tangible nature. I would say that his sneer, found in few of the other dads of our neighborhood, was in part a mask...

Bidding Adieu to George Denny’s Concept of Statistical Education | Improving Higher Education
https://improvinghighereducation.wordpress.com/2013/12/21/traditional-statistics-education
8230; making it higher indeed …. Bidding Adieu to George Denny’s Concept of Statistical Education. December 21, 2013. I think such a department can and should do much better than that. Attest, institutions are fully prepared to squelch creativity and criticality when such states of mind interfere with the bureaucratic imperative. One thing I liked about him: he certainly seemed to enjoy visitors. George’s system of incentives, worksheets, and other materials and techniques did tend to keep students scoot...

Narrowmindedness in Higher Education | Improving Higher Education
https://improvinghighereducation.wordpress.com/2013/03/19/narrowmindedness
8230; making it higher indeed …. Narrowmindedness in Higher Education. March 19, 2013. The following is an essay I wrote in support of an application for admission to a PhD program in a school of education. (Upon rereading the essay, I have made a few minor post-submission edits.) The application focused on a proposed study of higher education reform. These several examples criticize certain mindsets that one can readily encounter among professors and administrators. The criticisms themselves seem to...

Offers glimpses into many of the courses that I have taken during my years as an undergraduate and graduate student. This post provides a more detailed look into one such course. ( A later post. Expands on some ideas introduced here.). Toward the end of the semester and in those cases the time was being filled by the students, not the professor. Purpose of the Course. The melting pot does appear to have worked.

8230; making it higher indeed …. A Visit to the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) of Arkansas. April 15, 2013. In April 2013, in a decision to take an assignment considerably beyond what most other students were doing, in a terribly lame course. Would exhibit startling myopia. It may seem that a person with an master’s of social work (MSW) degree from one of the nation’s highest-ranked schools of social work would be skilled in handling and exploring issues of race. And I pro...And did...

8230; making it higher indeed …. An Experience of Choosing a New PhD Program. May 28, 2013. I was a PhD student at Indiana University (IU). I confronted abusive administrators. They retaliated by preventing me from graduating. I wrote up the situation in a blog. The British Journal of Social Work. And the Journal of Social Work Education. School of social work. Some of the problems I had seen in social work education seemed to flow from the general higher education milieu. It was no secret that polit...
