why did we lock the unfair preceptor thread?

[Dred Pirate]

we actually had an active discussion going, and it gets locked, it didn't even get ugly?? (unless I am missing some deleted posts) moderators killing this message board

We started letting users have more control over their posts and one of the newer options is the ability to close your own threads. As an old school guy I don’t love it but it is what it is.

Not a moderator action though just FYI.

If this were Reddit, Dred Pirate would now delete the OP and lock the thread.

I mean I agree. And I thought the replies were quite nice in tone as well, if I do say so myself 😂

Nope. Mods have earned the reputation around here by killing the forum.

“Why isn’t my prescription ready yet???”

I mean it’s our fault even when it isn’t our fault.

There would also be roving bands of zoomers telling me how horrible I am and ending their rants with "Do better."

The medical/pharmacy rotation model is flawed, mostly 'pimping' questions and self-learning, guessing what they should study based on a review of patients.
I always tried to distill the most important, but basic, information for the students, geared towards their post-grad practice setting.

Saying that, I have observed the new student cohorts, both wanting spoon feeding, but no homework, and a kind of tour experience. For instance, we didn't have daily rounds at a facility I was at, but they demanded it.

Disinterested students in our day, would be happy to have a non-high stakes rotation, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. You can create a low-stakes rotation, with spoon feeding and cessation of all advanced, ancillary information, and the students can still be upset.

I think it's partially generational (We aren't that old here) and the less able state of pharmacy students post-2016 entrants.

What do you guys do for your hospital rotations?
