Are you a defensive pessimist? Strategic optimist? Professor of Psychology and Social Studies Emerita Barbara Held writes in the @NYDailyNews about knowing thyself and the possible psychological reasons why 70 million Americans remain unvaccinated. https://t.co/7ezX2JZwzw

Delighted to announce that my new book on the bureaucratic politics of executive orders will be out next week from Princeton University Press. It's got archival material galore, more agencies than you knew existed, math, bad jokes, and even coyotes. https://t.co/xDWRVXUm2i

Somewhere my English teachers are feeling inexplicably uncomfortable. This is why. Grammar snobs unite.

[Doug Cook @DouglasRCook]

A fascinating read. (Oh, and the book is good, too. Kidding.) The research and detail make an already riveting story that much more compelling. Really enjoyed the opportunity to learn more about the process.

@briankoppelman You shut your mouth when you’re talking to me.

Mainers, and those who love Maine—read this!

I'm thrilled to introduce Luna Soley, a student at @BowdoinCollege who's debuting today in @outsidemagazine with a beautiful essay about How I Spent My Summer. (Working on a Down East lobster boat.) https://t.co/gnUQX7zkPq

Maybe it is easy being green. It’s in the science. We’re talking evergreens, y’all. #science #fallcolors #Kermit

When you're listening to someone you seem to like and respect. And then they say "expecially" and the spell is broken.

Autumn is here! The trees are changing in foliage and it seems like it's time for some leaf pile diving. Thanks to @DouglasRCook for snapping this photo from on campus.

[Doug Cook @DouglasRCook]

This was fun to coordinate; big thanks to NYC alums who helped make it happen! @alroker — there is now also a Plush Matthew Henson doll. Next time...

[Bowdoin College @BowdoinCollege]

#TBT to when @alroker spent time with Plush Peary on the @TODAYshow. A new book contains untold stories of early @ExplorersClub member Robert Peary's Arctic adventures.

@casey_mcquiston Fantastic job with RW&RB! Beautiful story, brilliantly told. I came into work to ask my two Texan colleagues about Shiner, and could not believe it when one of them was drinking out of a plastic cup with the Shiner logo on it!

@kristinromey Hi - Doug Cook at Bowdoin College. I tweeted you, from the college account, I believe, last wk w info about a new book about Robert Peary (early Explorers Club member!) by two archaeologists here. Been trying to find an email address for you. LMK if interested. Thx!

Renowned artist Rockwell Kent has a complicated history with the artist colony that is Monhegan Island. His work was celebrated at the @MonheganMuseum's anniversary exhibition; the story on @MountainLakePBS.

@KristinRomey — Would love to share more information and put you in touch with the archaeologist authors.

[Bowdoin College @BowdoinCollege]

Archaelogist-scholars go beyond @explorerclub member Robert Peary's Arctic treks to share fascinating, lesser-known stories of the man believed to have been first to reach the North Pole in a new book: Peary's Arctic Quest.
