Dr Sam Whewall has been an excellent researcher @lborogeog. If anyone is looking to employ a sociologist or geographer of education, he's your man. We've done everything remotely during the pandemic, and while I might miss tea with the team, it's worked brilliantly. Great job Sam
I'll be back at @EducationBATH as an RA for a month or two, after which, unemployment beckons (cheers, academia). If you're hiring a sociologist/geography of education, drop me a line 😊 #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

Congratulations, @emmarbates. It was honour and joy to examine your thesis together with @markjwholton. Emma was supervised by @ProfSLHolloway and @DrHPW, and Emma defended her thesis brilliantly @lborogeog #phdlife

Grim listening to Degrees of Abuse about Geography.

When does a professional teaching relationship cross over into something more intimate and manipulative?

Conservatives argue for free speech on campus, but their MP wants people using the term 'white privilege' to be reported for extremism 🤣. My lectures evaluate changing geographic approaches to race, including studies of white privilege. Evidence-based analysis ✔ Extremism❌

Teenagers are great. Youngest watched a "how to" YouTube video, then cut my hair. No fuss. All that time playing FIFA obviously developed the fine motor skills required for the job.
