Professor Ingle Quote of the Day!



"What makes a yellow-throated warbler a yellow-throated warbler? The fact that it's yellow-throated warbler."

"Naming things is a way to exert dominion over them--that's why Adam named the animals. And that's why we name our children. As a matter of fact, that's why we give them 3 names...more power!"

Poetry: The All-Nighter

Un-make-up-ed face and
Eye-balls race
To ends of lines
And thesis defines

Keyboard clatters and
Slowly splatters grey matter
When pulling an all-nighter.

Dr. Sullivan Quote of the Day!

Some fun quotes from our wonderful bioethics professor:

Whenever we ask about APA formatting: "I don't care about your niggely little complications--Lord save us from the bean counters!!" 


Student: Can we do this for extra credit?
Dr. Sullivan: I don't know if I want to allow you to genetically enhance this course.

Dr. Hwang Quote of the Day!

All a part of taking testing and measurement at a Christian college:

"Salvation is your criterion reference...Jesus is your score transformation."

"Construct validity--you identify the behaviors that are manifestations of that construct. For example, love. How do you know if he loves you? You can't see the construct of love, so you use behavior to test his love. I'd say the size of the diamond works well for construct validation."
