@ABaricovich @smart_emilee And the biggest shoutout to my husband who has loved and supported me every step of the way. His unconditional love and encouragement made this possible.

Excited to say I successfully defended my dissertation yesterday! Have spent the last few years researching and building a dataset of all public appearances by justices. Thanks to my committee, especially my advisor, Justin Wedeking, for the endless support!

[Abbie Wood @abbiewood07]

I feel so grateful to have had such an incredible advisor and committee members. Thanks also to my fellow grad students at UK, especially my fellow judicial women @ABaricovich @smart_emilee who have all become like family to me. I wouldn’t have made it without them.

[EmiLee Smart @smart_emilee]

Passed my dissertation defense yesterday “Ruling in the Shadows: Analysis of the Supreme Court’s Use of the Shadow Docket and its Effects”

Thanks so much to Justin Wedeking and to my fellow #womenwhojudicial @abbiewood07 @ABaricovich and everyone else on the 16th floor of POT!

How do women influence violence against civilians in war? @Harrell_Baylee finds that as rebel groups’ women combatants increase, so does perpetration of violence against civilians. When rebel groups have women in outreach roles, violence decreases. https://t.co/SS7j9rqkno @isanet

@marcyshieh That’s the BEST season

[Abbie Wood @abbiewood07]

Many things but @ABaricovich and @smart_emilee come to mind and our pretty much daily texts about PhD stuff. 10/10 would recommend becoming good friends with the ppl in your program!

[Jennifer Polk, PhD (she, her) @FromPhDtoLife]

Okay, so what actually helped you get through your PhD? (Or is helping you now?)

[Abbie Wood @abbiewood07]

@ABaricovich @harrell_baylee @kellyngrenier was welcoming from my very first day in the program! And I’m so excited for her future in an amazing part of the country.

All 3 of these ladies are awesome in so many ways and I’m so proud of all of them!

[Abbie Wood @abbiewood07]
