This is a really valid point for those of us starting out on the Degree Journey. It's all well and good to aim for HD's at every turn, but quite frankly, a HD won't matter squat once you finish. What will matter, will be the integrity you have applied to becoming proficient in your area of expertise. It's a slow journey and it must not be hurried or disabused of joy in discovery.
Thanks Michelle! This is really important for me as I'm the kind of person who kills herself trying to get the absolute best score. I'll have to remember perfection is not possible. There's always something that's not quite right. =)
I laughed on seeing this! Re Intercultural Communication. It's "almost" right for the first picture but not quite! That's the thing with thinking we're fey with a culture if we've only just touched the surface. Based on the first image and the reference to an Australian rude gesture that's "not quite accurate", my hunch is the others aren't either. A thing from the interwebs not to be trusted.
Just because. I like this because it shows that Librarian's have a unique role in society. We are important people in our respective social infrastructures. So, let's enjoy this journey towards proficiency in "preserving every aspect of human knowledge." :)
This site has proved essential to me in my previous job. It is a gold-mine of articles, some scholarly, and viewpoints, media examples and so on across a range of societal needs and interests. I recommend students bookmark this site for future research and information opportunities.
Interesting. Except I sit 'back' and cross my legs because that just happens to be the only comfortable position I can find to sit in for any length of time because of my arthritic hips. So once again, as anyone who has studied body language will tell you, "You can't take the body positions or movements in isolation" ;)
