Full day faculty meeting

cornerofmadnessLet's see I did get down there by 730 in the morning (wah) and the upshot is we now have over 800 student athletes (in a school of barely 2K) and our dorms are full. That's a big yay. It's also a hardship because these students will miss so much school.
I got a raise (not one that'll cover inflation but it's better than nothing). I spoke to the dean and said if they give the tests face to face yes they could teach the micro class online. She was elated then promptly told me I'd be teaching them (I will have about 20 hours of overload by the end) And we're all so overloaded with this influx of students we'll be getting paid over.
I also spoke to the dean of the other department and because the Ag major isn't getting off the ground like they thought it would they're giving me the Ag micro's autoclave. Woot.
The president spoke of fixing our labs but they didn't get the money (but were told to try again next year) I thanked him for trying and seemed to be roped into figuring out what needs to be replaced/remodeled.
I was also asked to help the new hire at a branch campus with the A&P class...she's never taught it or even HAD the class. How is she going to do the lab? I dunno but I'll be hand holding this semester.
We were told thanks to MAGA we now have three new questions on the student eval so if the students accuse of being woke we could lose a job or even trigger a federal witch hunt. I did point out I HAVE to teach about vaccines and they said that wouldn't count toward this. If I end up in prison you'll know how.
It was a long ass day and I didn't sleep well because the tumors in my neck were pressing on my air way. One of my coworker's S.O. had her thyroid masses removed this week. They kept her overnight. Interesting. I did warn my two potential transporters that this might happen with me and I would pay for a hotel.
My friend TH bought me a steampunk wall clock (from Walmart of all places) because I've been having so many hard years in a row. That was sweet.
