@mininghistory And since well-established universities count PhD supervision as 4 hours a year towards a lecture's workload (quarterly supervisions & why would you need to read anything?), we can see where this is going.
274 new TT (tenure-track and tenured) positions for historians in a country of 333+ million people.
Per over 1.2 million people, one new TT job for a historian.
This is a tragedy for the discipline, yes, but also a massive disinvestment in society.

@gsoh31 Not to mention the now-seemingly-orthodox view that the measure of education is its income premium. Let's apply that principle to earlier stages, roll back that pesky, worthless secondary education and go back to child labour!

Does this really help her other children? No-one will be more distraught about this tragic situation than she is. There has to be some compassionate intervention.

Just said farewell to Queen Catherine of Aragon’s Book of Hours with @kateemccaffrey. Such a privilege to have it on loan from @MorganLibrary, exhibited alongside that of Queen Anne Boleyn. Cannot wait to show you the treasure we have discovered which will replace it on 8th June!
