[quote]While I understand the enthusiasm for those earning their degrees (since I fall into that category), the screaming families seemed a bit over the top. [/quote] I've been through these type ceremonies before where a simple instruction like "save all the applause to the end" or at least a lo...

Just got back from commencement. Here are my thoughts: 1) While invited to both BGS and SIE, I opted to join BGS. The induction ceremonies were jointly held. There were only 13 BGS inductees vs 34 SIE (although a large majority of BGS folks also joined SIE). The BGS inductees were given a cer...

Just took my last exam of my LSUS career (M7 quiz with McLaughlin's MADM760). I'm officially done, BGS + 4.0 and I'm walking on the 16th. Hope to see you in Shreveport! BTW, taking McLaughlin's 760 was the best move I think I've done (well maybe taking Lin's 705 before it became a real class ...

Has anyone received BGS induction ceremony details yet? We are two weeks out and nothing. I sent Dr. Darrat a note a week back and he said something would be sent out "in the coming days"....

[quote]I am not taking it. I am done. Not doing anything else.[/quote] If there are no repercussions for not taking this exam then why would anyone take this exam after the fact? They didn't do a great job in framing out why they are asking this from us. If its merely a tool to improve then why...

[quote]Yeah, I just got that too. Exactly why do I have to take a proctored exam that isn't graded and doesn't affect my GPA or graduation status?[/quote] I'm assuming its AACSB hoops you need to jump through. I don't remember what I had for breakfast, I'm probably not going to do all that w...

I just got an email from the MBA program telling me I need to take a 35 question Proctorio proctored end of program exam as part of their AACSB accreditation. While this is not a "test" as they put it (wont impact GPA, graduation or anything) I wonder what the content will be like. Hoping its not ...

[quote]Hmm. I notice McLaughlin now has a section of MADM 701. Anyone ever take it with her? I'm really pretty pleased with the excellent pacing and reasonable course load of her MADM 760, so I'm seriously thinking of taking it with her instead of Heller. I just don't want to choose her section ...

Now if McLaughlin will allow us to post our mini discussion, things will be right with the world again. The rubric is very strict and she tells everyone their initial post must be by Tuesday, its Monday night and she has yet to open up the forum to allow posting. It must be short timers syndro...
