@Chris_Estep @OutInNatSec @NewAmerica Congrats, Chris! Looks like an impressive list of dedicated people!

[William McCoy @ENCHistoryProf]

@nickphistory @EasternNazarene The picture really does make it look like any other beautiful Commencement day!

[William McCoy @ENCHistoryProf]

Not as warm as last Saturday but a good day for @EasternNazarene!

[William McCoy @ENCHistoryProf]

One week from now, this view will be filled with grads and their loved ones. Here’s hoping for equally perfect weather!

This is why historians try to stay out of the predictions business.

Listening to BBC Radio on my way home after confidently telling a group of students that they wouldn’t hear American policy makers refer to events in Ukraine as genocide: ‘Pres. Biden today referred to the Russian invasion of Ukraine as genocide in remarks in Iowa today…’

[William McCoy @ENCHistoryProf]

Sure to be a good talk!

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

Ukraine has been invaded by Russia. All day long people have been asking me what to do. Here are a few ways that you can show solidarity with Ukrainians. https://t.co/oNI8oy55xi

Katelyn asked, "Did you do any research while you were at BU?" 😂 Look, I know it took me nearly 13 years to finish my graduate studies at BU, but I'm pretty sure they don't give doctoral degrees that don't involve doing research...

[William McCoy @ENCHistoryProf]

Got a fundraising call from @BU_Tweets last night. It was their third attempt to reach me in 2 days, and I had a very nice chat with a student named Katelyn who is in the band program. Katelyn had a solid script to work with, but one line will have me chuckling for a while...

[William McCoy @ENCHistoryProf]

She knew I had earned a PhD and what school I had been a part of (although she had trouble remembering whether to call me "Mr. McCoy" or "Dr. McCoy," which was no big deal). But after asking if I enjoyed my time at BU (yes, thanks to the great people in the @BUAfricaStudies)...

[William McCoy @ENCHistoryProf]

Exciting times ahead!

This is perhaps the highest snowfall potential totals map I have ever made. Banding most likely over southeastern MA, but could occur anywhere in the highest zone. Most of this falls from 7 am to 7pm Saturday, final flakes around midnight. #WeatherWisdom
