It's been a while... but I'm back to ask what in the world is up with regalia costing upwards of $1000?? Is that normal? Has that always been the case? It feels exploitative! @AcademicDilemma @AcademicMamas #PhDone

Just a reminder that you are not less ambitious, less of a hard worker, or less deserving of promotion if you set boundaries around work and protect your time for family, friends, hobbies, chores, and personal things.

Work is only one part of life, and is not your whole life.

You CAN be kind and compassionate AND successful.

@Gradadvisor @Momademia @AcademicParents @AcademicMamaPhD @bookclubdotcom @TSBookClub Hah! Just start out slow with some Tolstoy.

I’ve been reading dissertation-related books and academic journal articles for the past three years. Any recs for my first post-PhD book? @AcademicParents @AcademicMamaPhD @Momademia @bookclubdotcom @TSBookClub

@DevJake @AcademicMamas @AcademicMamaPhD Thank you!! I think I'm still in shock that it's all done!

[Rebecca Correll @Rebecca_Correll]

That's a wrap! Yesterday I successfully defended my dissertation on the effects of the #ACTMatrix on values-aligned parenting behaviors. A question for #AcademicTwitter: When can I officially add PhD after my name? @AcademicMamas @AcademicMamaPhD #PhD #dissertationdefense #ABA

@sabine_doebel @lakens Very interesting! Thanks for sharing 😊

Being "pro-family" starts with:

🚑 Bringing down health care and prescription drug costs
🧸 Investing in affordable childcare and universal pre-K
👷‍♂️ Creating more good jobs that pay a fair wage

And, of course:

💵 Passing a working-class tax cut to get parents some relief ASAP

1. Progress over perfection
2. Collaboration over competition
3. A good dissertation is a DONE dissertation

What are 3 things that you will take (or took) away from your grad school experience?

[Rebecca Correll @Rebecca_Correll]

Just spent 3 hours writing and rewriting a single sentence in my dis. proposal to perfect it only to realize all of the rewriting made it completely unrelated to the point I was trying to make. So that's how my morning's going. At this rate I'll be done by 2050. #AcademicWriting

the thing about academia is that no matter how “successful” you become you will always be an adult wearing a backpack

[Rebecca Correll @Rebecca_Correll]

@JananiVaidya Completely agree! The conversation needs to start with "Yes we have problems in our field" rather than "That's not our field".

[Rebecca Correll @Rebecca_Correll]

Oh and googling "synonym for..."

[Rebecca Correll @Rebecca_Correll]

I'm officially halfway done with comps. Most of my time has been spent commenting [CITE THIS] and overusing the words "additionally," "thus," and "demonstrate". But at least I'm halfway there! #AcademicTwitter

@antydonny @AcademicChatter It takes a special kind of person to comb through a reference section in search of mistakes!

[Rebecca Correll @Rebecca_Correll]

Anyone else repeatedly sing the alphabet song when completing their reference section to make sure everything is in order? #AcademicTwitter @AcademicChatter

@littleredhenemy @PhD_Genie Sometimes something as simple as reaffirming your values, your long-term goals of being in the program, and the things that got you excited about the program in the first place can help reduce burnout!

Here are some great (read: free) values exercises: https://t.co/BOPFEoYMVC

@ash_smasher Congrats girl! Send some of that productive energy my way!
