73 % of all faculty positions off the tenure track,
“For the most part, these are insecure, unsupported positions with little job security & few protections for academic freedom. “Data Snapshot: Contingent Faculty in U.S. Higher Ed.” (AAUP, 2018).

[Stephen Krashen @skrashen]

About 1/3 of university adjuncts earn less than $25,000 per year, below poverty line. They are PhDs, often teaching full loads or more without benefits or job security. About ½ of university faculty are adjuncts. https://t.co/rUs10YhNNU

If you are supervising an international student who is trying to write in their non-native language - tell them how awesome they are. They often feel incompetent, frustrated and even stupid. In reality they're really smart - just doing something very complicated. Tell them.

@Revathy__Mani Congratulations Revathy! Well deserved!

Dr. Anthony Fauci lays out three ways future scientific communicators can build trust:

1) Always go by the data
2) Admit when you don't know something
3) The goal is not to show how smart you are. It's to get people to understand what you're talking about.

Selecting a supervisor/advisor
Meet them in person
If not possible then Skype several times
Visit their lab or group
Talk to current students
Track down previous students and ask them about their experience
Read their papers to find out about their research interests/approaches

You are not your job title.
You are not your salary.
You are not your CV.
You are a person.
