Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life

Chapter 995

Blake's lips curled into a mischievous grin; she had finally set her plan in motion and was ready to watch the chaos unfold. Mr. Richard and Jules were both on Flora's side, and even the ambitious students at the University of Maple Grove treated her like she was something special. But the online world was a different beast altogether. There was no way they would rally behind Flora.

...

Blake intentionally waited a good half-hour before diving into Twitter, and by then, it was already a whirlwind of drama.

"A scandal at the University of Maple Grove: Mr. Garcia accused of favoritism by naming a freshman as an honorary professor. Seriously, how absurd is that? I've got a couple of questions for the university. Flora, a 19-year-old freshman, how on earth does she qualify to be an honorary professor at the University of Maple Grove?

From what I know, an honorary professorship needs you to tick off three major boxes:

1. Holding a Ph.D.

2. Being a big name in your field with significant accomplishments and peer recognition.

3. Making a major impact in academic development, research collaboration, and scholarly exchange.

Which of these does Flora, just a freshman, meet to deserve such an honor? I checked the university's criteria from two years ago. Besides the three mentioned, they also required at least ten FCI-indexed journal publications. And Flora? She's got zilch. Forget FCI articles; she probably doesn't even know what an academic database is. Appointing her is an insult to academia!"
