Time to fold in the hooves, as we say in Sweden. Thanks for letting me bring joy and happiness in these special times. ❤️ #illbebock#overandout#untilwemeetagain
@nckhui Outrageous. If you would like to know how students are doing and if academic losses are occurring ASK their teachers! There should be no standardized tests given this year. Students and teachers are stressed enough!
Lots of advice flying around to grad students & job candidates & administrators & prospective PhD students, but I think there’s one piece of advice by Stephen Van Evers (1997) that, for all of academia’s changes over the last several months/decades, stands the test of time:
Why have I not met more plus size women in academia? I consider myself to be on the smaller end of the plus size spectrum (I’m a size 14, for reference) and I still feel like I’m the biggest woman I know. Doesn’t bother me (most of the time) but I notice.

Why Are Teachers So Tired All The Time?
Research shows we make about 1,500 decisions a day! The constant requirement to ‘be on’ becomes DRAINING to our brains and bodies. It is called ‘Decision Fatigue’.
This explains a lot!
