Confessions Of an Anonymous Design Professor

Anonymous because, despite tweets to the contrary, I do like my students and my job. Oh, and I freelance. Just in case you were thinking “Those who can’t…”

The rise of the semicolon. A few years ago, this form of punctuation was almost dead. Now, however, it’s make a comeback. My students use it regularly, then wonder why I ask them to reference AI use 😒

Dear students, there is a good chance I know the paper you are referring to.

In response to a student who was arguing Authoritarian theory and referenced a paper about feminism and the rise of related hashtags in India.

Statistics have shown that 89% of adults who go trick or treating don’t have children. They’re in fact freelancers with unpaid invoices trying to get through the month.

Good evening. I’d just like to remind everyone not to panic. There is absolutely a particular reason I’m saying this and it very much has to do with pernicious infections, sadistic timelines, and my personal inability to either say no or read a calendar correctly.

@katylcowan Exhausted and sick. Hbu???

[Confessions Of an Anonymous Design Professor @AnonDesiProf]

@vee_em_cee @clhubes Lol I did the same!!! Hahaha it was so stressful

[Confessions Of an Anonymous Design Professor @AnonDesiProf]

@katylcowan Haha I heard about this on BBC. I’m from Canada & we’ve had it for a while. As a mom, I’m all for the Amber Alert as long as it’s not misused! It only goes off every 2-3 months here. I tend to keep my phone on silent anyways.

I am working my way up to 5 minutes in the cold plunge pool—which I find very unpleasant.

I figure it’s good training for the end-of-term marking nightmare. #professor #sarcasm #academiclife #AcademicTwitter

@katylcowan I had the realization that everyone getting their drinks at Starbucks before me was bc they had the app so I downloaded it. Went from drinking Starbucks 6-8/yr to 2-3/week! I am my own worst enemy. And also I appreciate that I am N. American 🇨🇦 and coffee culture is in my blood

Student who has been consistently late all term:
