Owner of a worthless degree certificate (provisional award). Love a good gradua-sham

@RoyalMail I'm meant to be getting a "guaranteed before 1pm signed for delivery" today. Seems to be after 1pm to me... Not like it's our wedding bands or anything important.

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@char_minter @ucu @StrathclydeUCU @thenewsmovement Absolutely!

[Bex @i_decked_it]

I didn't get my real degree today, no cap. @ucu @StrathclydeUCU

[Bex @i_decked_it]

The new @UniStrathclyde signs look incredible! ❤️❤️ #strathlife #strathclyderforlife

Knitting tiny frogs with outfits creates much joy

@UniStrathclyde may have "technical difficulties" with the footage of my ceremony, but the paid photographer has no such issues😊 @StrathclydeUCU @ucu #ucuRISING

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@AkenLulus @DSCoremans @StrathclydeUCU Seriously? What a heartless thing to say. The universities are taking the students and staff hostage, the lecturers have been warning this for months and been fighting for YEARS for fair treatment. Source: am a graduate with no classification

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@DSCoremans @goodreads Managed to get mine down to 1 (very full) shelf and I am stunned at myself

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@grace03445955 @ucuatdurham I refused to get doffed and put a sash on, strathclyde mysteriously have technical difficulties with only my ceremony and all the rest are on YouTube🤔

[Emily Bell @emilycoiabell]

The Tab Glasgow reached out to the University of Strathclyde to appeal for evidence of this difficulty but did not receive any confirmation or explanation for the fault

[Strathclyde UCU @StrathclydeUCU]

Surely @UniStrathclyde wouldn't do such a thing...

Haven't they learned from @STIRUNI ?

Oops.

"technical fault"

@SanyuktainEd @AliciaForsberg I don't think it's likely to be AI, but is clearly impersonal enough that it could be.

[Bex @i_decked_it]

I HAVE FEEDBACK ON MY 8 THOUSAND WORD DISSERTATION! Oh, wait. No, I have 100 words of vague waffle. Whoever marked this didn't approve of the title that my supervisor told me not to change. This is an insult to me and my supervisor and I am in shock

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@CardiffBookHist @bobsblackwell @fergusonelaine Abstract, no. But I did have a subtitle which is not shown in the feedback and this is the question I'm mainly addressing in the dissertation!

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@drjordankistler Many people mentioning AI. Well, this has just been sent to me. Obviously is not proof, but highly entertaining even if it is wrong and shows how impersonal the feedback is

[Bex @i_decked_it]

I know that this was not marked by my supervisor
@drjordankistler
and do not know who has given me this grade and feedback

[Bex @i_decked_it]

Twitter has re-validated my belief that my title is good

[Emily Bell @emilycoiabell]

Rebecca said her supervisor specifically told her not to change the title of her dissertation. However, her feedback, checked only by one marker, called her title “unwieldy”. (3/3)

@SethLSanders @snarkademic @racheledini1 Absolutely fantastic feedback on my hundreds of hours of work!

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@jrex62 @SaulStaniforth No clue, that document is all the information I have

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@maregan_le_fay The validation of twitter loving my title is sufficient for now😆

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@maregan_le_fay 5 years for me! BA Hons with an additional year abroad

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@maregan_le_fay This would make absolute sense, I genuinely would prefer no feedback to rushed work from someone over-worked who doesn't know the field

[Bex @i_decked_it]

@sophie_ICBP @BurmanPhD The title is the best thing I've ever written
