📢 Publication alert! 📒📚

Why do victims of violence & trauma get involved in politics?

In a new article in @PoPpublicsphere @CUP_PoliSci, I argue that politics offers victims unique ways of finding meaning in the harms & losses they've suffered.

Colorado has the lowest rate of legal representation in #immigration court -- and trying to DIY your #asylum case is not a recipe for success. ☹️🇺🇸⚖️

Really happy to see the @ColoradoSun raising awareness of this issue!

So happy to see the #northernlights tonight! This was at Spy Pond in Arlington, MA. What a show!

Sadly, this is v consistent with what I found back in 2020.

"Strategic Discrimination" is the only paper I ever wrote with the sincere hope that it would soon become very, very dated. Like, to the point of irrelevance.

But no, here we are again ... 😢

The year is 2024, tons of women run for office & win, AND YET strategic discrimination is still alive and kicking -- especially among Democrats, who are *most likely* to believe that Harris's gender hurts her chances of winning this fall. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Amazing, insane, over-capacity crowd at our @CUBoulder debate watch party tonight!

Such a treat to get to watch this historic moment w/so many students & colleagues! 🦬🦬🗳️🗳️🎉🎉

[Leah Greenberg says NO KINGS ❌👑 @Leahgreenb]

this is an absolutely bananas complaint to have about the Vice President of the United States

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

Just realized there's a running guide to Philadelphia & I'm more excited than ever for @APSAtweets 2024! ☺️👟

@soyounglee37 @IntOrgJournal Ooooooooo I am totally going to teach this as an example of problem-driven research! I love your abstract! Great work & congrats! 😊

[Jennifer N. Victor @jenvictor.bsky.social @jennifernvictor]

Straight to the lecture slides!

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

Whoa! Amazing opportunity! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

@sbmitche 💯 Gap, Noah's Bagels, Ben & Jerry's, a local softball league, a k-8 school, research assistanting as an undergrad, and probably some other places I'm forgetting -- so many random jobs are not on my CV or LinkedIn! 🤣

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

@PReligions They looked so confused! 45 very skeptical faces. Especially because they were expecting a male prof named Ryan!

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

Me: "Welcome to Qualitative Methods!"

Students: "Ummmm, we're here for Neuropharmacology."

Me: "Whoa, I am totally unqualified to teach you that!"

Yep, I walked into the wrong room full of students & confidently started teaching the 1st day of someone else's class! 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

@GaribaldoValdez Try Hotwire! I got a much better deal that way, just a few blocks away ...

[Virginia Oliveros 💚 @VirOliveros]

We are hiring in Methods! 👇 Deadline: 9/16. Happy to answer any questions about the position, the university, and New Orleans!

@joeura And who knows, maybe I could've convinced some psych majors to switch to political science! 🤣

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

@joeura Duly noted! Maybe I'll add that to my first slide. (Yes, I was all set up and showing them slides. SLIDES!!) 🤦‍♀️

[Chandler James @DrChandlerJames]

The Political Science Dept @uoregon is hiring! We're seeking applications to fill two TT opportunities. One seeks applicants specializing in inequality in the United States. Learn more about this position here: https://t.co/jRmdORCddK

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

@amilliff I love it! 🥳

[Regina Bateson @regina_bateson]

@RebeccaGalemba I know! I often feared this as a student. Never occurred to me that I might go TEACH the wrong classroom full of students!

Plus I was so confident this was my room. I mean, I had scoped it out ahead of time, tested the A/V setup, everything. I was *on it* ... or so I thought!🤣
