We've got a new PhD on our hands #twitterstorians! Congrats to @cleglenn on her successful defense!

[Craig Gallagher @ProfKreg]

A request for help from Early American #twitterstorians. Students in my AmRev seminar are each analyzing a journal article on a theme of the Revolution this Fall. But I am having coverage issues and would love some suggestions of your favorite/most important articles on 1763-1815

Today is “sustaining fee” day. Time to pay to work independently off campus.

That’s what happens when you ask, “what should we have for dinner?”

We’ve all had “conversations” like this. 😆

BREAKING: A statue of Christopher Columbus in Byrd Park has been removed by protesters and dragged into the lake. This is a developing story.

@magpie @cleglenn I feel like I’ve come across a reference sheet for commercial abbreviations. I’ll do some searching through my materials and see what I come up with!

[David Head @DavidHeadPhd]

Inspired by @lmchervinsky 's call for more online reviews, I just left one for @DrJesseCromwell 's THE SMUGGLERS' WORLD. It's short but gets the job done.

Q: What can we learn from an 18th century account book? A: Insights into NYC's economy, women's economic activities and networks, and material culture, for starters. Read more at Women at the Center @NYHistory, on the Octo! https://t.co/GOfy8dDBnn #VastEarlyAmerica #womenshist

Let me set the scene for you. It’s a cold December night. It’s Christmas Eve, and me and @StevieVanZandt are walking home from a bar down the boardwalk... it’s snowing, and as we look up in the distance, we see something coming toward us...🎅https://t.co/JlvEmymKOj
