I was also wondering why I kept seeing the same “Faith” email pop up over and over again. Makes sense if it’s a series, though I feel they should link to each other if so.
This one seems different from the others, in that it’s implying dishonesty instead of just creativity; disdain for pointless rules of propriety that serve as a class filter to keep academia inaccessible to people who didn’t grow up knowing the expectations; inadequate advisement; and/or flakiness.
I figured it out though! The professor is writing to her Faith in Humanity after dealing with various students in different situations, not one glorious, completely oblivious to social cues, Mr. Magoo-ass shitbird.

There's two comments about Kenya in here. Where the hell do you see anything about Kenya in the screenshot?!

KES is kenyan currency and is found in the prior post to this series. You can find it in the OPs post history.

Ah shit, the "I'm invested in this series" comment should have been a clue. Thanks!

There’s a watermark on the page of a TikTok account… “heiress_ke”. Seems like a Kenyan account.
I suspect those are bots pulling in context from that username somehow?Or folks who get off on providing zero context for their musings, who can say
Edit: seems like this is one of a series of posts.

It has to be a reference to other posts, or perhaps the professor's name is distinctly Kenyan?

I had to Google, 60k KES = 400 Euro (assuming it's Kenyan shilling)

Where do you see this in the post?
lemmyseikai@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 179d
It's the prior one in the series. You can find it in the OP post history.

Conjecture: They replied to the wrong post.

I came back after Googling and commented in the wrong post, it was shared on the "VII"

She has to defend her Masters thesis? Over here in the UK, you only have to formally defend Doctorate level theses.
Kenya's system must be a bit more rigorous than ours.

In the US, IIRC, you can have either thesis or capstone for Masters Degrees.
