A lot of wonderful updates this fall, but the most fulfilling:

I was looking over a former student’s personal statement for grad apps and it turned out to be about our mentoring relationship and her goal to pay it forward to her own students 🥲

I’m not crying it’s the onions!!

shoot, even just modern historians can think it’s more simple than it is!

[Dr Charlotte Gauthier @FaraiUnVers]

Non-historians assume that reading the dates on documents is a simple task. Historians faced with calculating the 5th day after the feast of some obscure saint in a regnal year that started on a moveable feast, however, realise that it’s not as blessedly simple as that.
