Just discovered that Twitter is a thing in Academia… 1 day after reviving my account, I’ve learned about relevant grant opportunities and identified a journal to submit to. Now I’m wondering why setting up an account isn’t part of grad school orientation?! @PhDVoice #gradschool

Such a useful resource re: reading (especially in a graduate coursework context!)
In case it is helpful, here is a handout I use in my grad seminars about how to read an academic article and prepare for a graduate seminar: dropbox.com/s/2q08lr4q7yy9cd…

I’m completely irritated at myself for spending a good part of the afternoon making this epistemology-ontology-methodology-axiology meme for class tomorrow. But also kind of proud of it 🤣 (disclaimer: the Whitney meme isn’t mine but I don’t know who to credit)

The LA Times picked up @columbagd’s great essay about how saving the monarch butterfly demands rethinking borders, which I had the pleasure of editing for @ThePublicSquare—watch for it there on Monday too!

It is academic job market season again. Having sat on searches, it was clear which candidates benefited from guidance--and which ones were left to figure it out themselves. We all know it is a process that reproduces existing inequalities/privileges in academia... (1/5)
