One thing I don't want to hear, ever again:

1. Africa is poor.

This should be replaced with:

1. Africa has been robbed.

H/t to @nericdickman who located the study and parameters for the initial chart

[Steven W. Ramey @SRameyStudyRel]

The data is both affirming and surprising, so I dove in more, which means some caveats and interesting points that still challenge conventional wisdom about who has earning potential. This becomes a great example of how people can use & shift stats so will use in class 1/x

[@drhonor.bsky.social @drhonor]

Still flabbergasted by this data released about earnings of @CUBoulder alums. Take a look-see at that there top line. Feel free to share this with the next troll who asks you what you can do with a degree in History.

Put this together in a blog post, for anyone interested in a different, shareable version. https://t.co/NUKzOt6lYo

@climberdanjones Thanks! With the start of a new semester, all affirmations are deeply treasured

[Steven W. Ramey @SRameyStudyRel]

@McCJohnW Sorry to burst the bubble. But overall, REL is middle of the pack and professional degrees that students assume will be lucrative aren’t necessarily better

[Steven W. Ramey @SRameyStudyRel]

@wheatleyjt You’re welcome. An interesting rabbit hole for a Sunday afternoon

[Steven W. Ramey @SRameyStudyRel]

Plus, all of this data excludes anyone with a graduate degree in any field. Source https://t.co/pUWnGwoGaP

[Steven W. Ramey @SRameyStudyRel]

So we can spin this so many ways, but big takeaway is earnings are not guaranteed with any major. Being able to articulate the skills gained for jobs in and out of the field is vital and 1 place we can help our students. 6/6

[Steven W. Ramey @SRameyStudyRel]

@nericdickman @McCutcheonSays @drhonor @CUBoulder Thanks. That is helpful

Cross-cultural examples, often from unexpected sources and different times, to illustrate key concepts (such as meaning, authorship & intention) is at the heart of #RELteaching. #RELexamples

[Steven W. Ramey @SRameyStudyRel]

This is why I am so fortunate to have colleagues like this and excite to be department chair (alongside the normal trepidation)

[UA Dept. of REL @StudyReligion]

A productive summer! We have submitted 6 books in final stages of publication, more than 20 book chapters (we can only count so high in Humanities, wink), 4 peer reviewed journal articles coming out soon, plus many publications in development #RELResearch #WhatRELdidthissummer
