academic validation

feeling achieved or appreciated when receiving praise in school. while it can be a good motivator, constantly seeking academic validation can become a problem mentally. this can lead to purposefully overworking yourself to feel that adrenaline rush that comes with good marks.
Mom: Why are your grades so bad?
Me: Because I seek academic validation to the point where if I can't do it perfectly the first time then there's no use in trying at all.

Academic Circle Jerk

When a group’s discussion of concepts and ideas start to overwhelm the thought process that you ultimately end up just standing around stroking the other people's egos and accomplishing nothing.
We discussed rubrics, a list of criteria for grading student’s work, until we discussed ourselves into an academic circle jerk.

Young Academics On Ice

This is what "yaoi" stands for, parents! When your son/daughter mentions the word yaoi, this is what they mean.

YAOI is a nonprofit organization where underprivileged children with a high IQ learn to ice skate. A very beautiful organization, but mainly directed at teens and children.

If your son/daughter mentions YAOI and then begins to laugh, chances are they remembered a specific episode of YAOI which portrayed humor.

(For all non-parents here, you know what yaoi is. This is the definition you'll want to tell your parents - because it's right...)
Father: What are you reading?
Daughter: Uh, just some YAOI...
Father: What?
Daughter: Young Academics on Ice! It's, eh, a really funny screenplay!

academic welfare

The dumbing-down of standards at branch/regional campuses so that their lower-class students can pass and ultimately graduate.
Man, this test was hard! Where's my "academic welfare"?

The "academic welfare" situation at Miami Hamilton is necessary for their mouth-breathers.

Without that "academic welfare" at MUH, his lazy butt would have failed out long ago!
