She got the associate professor position

26 July 2025Jinan, Shandong Translated by AI

I told her this year would go smoothly. She came back to say the associate professor title was confirmed.

The screenshots were masked before they were posted. Names, avatars and birth details are covered in the originals; where a translated line reads [redacted], the source was covered too and nothing has been guessed.
