#GradTerps here's a great opportunity to practice your sci-comm!

Seeking scientist volunteers! Want to practice science communication and help author a ✨comic✨ about your research? I need collaborators for this spring's cohort of SciComm & Comics art students! Please share widely. #STEMeducation #Science #sciart
ALT Flyer advertising a need for scientists volunteers. "Call for scientists! Want to collaborate with an art student on a comic about your research? Learn more and sign up by Feb 1st." Simple cartoon heads are wearing hats that are designed to look like items symbolic of different scientific disciplines: an aromatic ring, a crystal, an ammonite, and a paramecium.

My new book offers a reframing of graduate writing: developmental (something that must be learned); difficult (something that is consistently hard for everyone), possible (something worth doing well), and communal (something to be done with others): explorationsofstyle.com/2023… #AcWri

when tweets about professors go viral-ish, it convinces me we need a different category for professors like me. first, i'm extremely privileged to have tenure at a small rural university that's not a destination for a number of reasons...

Breaks help your brain process!! A message for every dissertation writing grad student!!
During breaks, it turns out, the brain works overtime. New research illuminates what kinds of breaks benefit learners the most.

This statement is a contradiction. You cannot support DC statehood & home rule AND also endorse Congress overturning a local law that has been a decade in the making.
2 Mar 2023
I support D.C. Statehood and home-rule – but I don’t support some of the changes D.C. Council put forward over the Mayor’s objections – such as lowering penalties for carjackings.
If the Senate votes to overturn what D.C. Council did – I’ll sign it.
