[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools can accept you on probation if you don’t fully meet their requirements, & convert that to full acceptance once you prove you can do the work.

Utah State University accepts 95%

Shepherd University (small public school in West Virginia) accepts 96%

I had a C+ average in high school. After one year at a community college I was accepted to a school that is now accepting less than 15%. That was a while ago, but I mention it to show you it can be done. I went on to get 2 master’s degrees & have taught at community colleges for over 30 years. [/quote]

Couldn’t land a gig above the CC level?[/quote]

Different prof here.  If you saw the higher education job market you'd have a lot more regard for my colleague's long teaching career and hard work.  CC faculty, 4-year college faculty, and university faculty are all the kind of people that DCUM wants its DCs to study with, but who teaches where is a function of a thousand things.  Almost all of us have degrees from places that are way more prestigious than the places we actually work.  We bloom where we're planted (and sometimes we are planted at random).  But we are all deserving of the same professional respect as everyone else here on DCUM.[/quote]
