"Given that reality, when should departments and professors start offering graduate students practical advice on their career options? The answer is: very early." Great article from @LCassuto on starting early and taking a team approach to grad advising bit.ly/3a7iKWC

While I don’t get as anxious when teaching as when I’m presenting at a conference, I definitely experience some public speaking anxiety symptoms in the classroom every once in a while. Here are some ways I deal with these feelings. #AcademicChatter youtu.be/7_zJPncIgC8

One of my #AcWri strategies is to find the right time to write. I'm highly aware that my brain processes slower at night. If I need to write at night, I do minor tasks or scribble a bit only. #ecrchat #phdchat #phdadvice buff.ly/2P37scA

for .@insidehighered, I wrote a bit about how I came to embrace advocacy, and ways to get involved during #phdlife - a PhD isn't enough. science gives us the tools to find solutions, but lab work needs context, & that context must be framed by the communities we belong to.

On the academic job market next year? One source of power in Negotiations is having a BATNA - best alternative to a negotiated agreement. Start following #altac twitter now. Even if you are set on going TT, knowing there are great alternatives is power #AcademicChatter 1/3

A question I hear a lot is, "Can I do X with a #phd?" Short of regulated professions, the answer is almost always yes. The discipline of your PhD doesn't matter much. So think big 💪😎 @AcademicChatter #altac #phdlife

Remember, what works for someone else might not necessarily work for you. This applies to both academic and nonacademic careers, so try to hush those "outer" voices and find the path that feels right for you.
