As a history professor at a regional public university, I spend a lot of time talking with students about choosing a major. Thanks to @thisisinsider for letting me share my thoughts:

@CUAlumni CU History alumna Kaylee Wheeler is serving with @AmeriCorps at Historic Castalian Springs in Sumner County. On Saturday, she led a program discussing energy efficiency and historic clothes washing methods. Did you know that chamber lye was used for stain removal?!

This is one of the proudest things I can tell our students in @HistoryatCU ... that 75% of our faculty came from where most of them do... rural Tennessee counties, public high school, 50% first generation college students.

Dr. Mielnik pulled a few books off her shelf this morning that should be required reading for anyone interested in a historical perspective on the moment we are living in.

In case anyone needs some summer reading, here are a few off my bookshelf. #BlackLivesMatter

One concrete step we each might take right now is to keep a journal.

Take the time to write down what is happening around you each day. It may help you process events and emotions.

These personal stories matter now and as a historical archive.

Yesterday evening, @CumberlandU announced that beginning March 16, all on-ground classes will move to on-line for the remainder of the semester. Students, please know that the faculty is working hard to provide support! #washyourhands #staywell
