Our first J Chem Ed @ACSPublications! Where we describe the development and deployment of a new general chemistry co-class that supports students at @ucdavis from first-generation, low-income, and underrepresented backgrounds https://t.co/ynXTipa5YN
Yesterday the group celebrated (finally!) the bon voyage of @borichemist with an Italian night at Sam’s. Although there wasn’t much photo documentation, highlights included focaccia, gnocchi alla Romana, and (by special request) red velvet cake! #wisCER#chemistswhocook

This past week, we said ���bon voyage” to one of our group members, Dr. Stephanie Santos–Díaz. Her passion for #JEDI and her qualitative #ChemEd methods expertise will be missed! Thankfully, her journey isn’t taking her far—to @Labcorp here in Madison! Cheers to you, @borichemist!
For anyone attending #CCCE2021 make sure to check out my recorded talk "Using Social Cognitive Career Theory to Investigate the Career Choices of Graduate Students" to hear about women's career interests in chem! Live panel to follow Tues 8/17 at 11:30ET
Applying to STEM grad schools this cycle?
Or know a friend / labmate / sibling / cousin who is?
There are SIX DAYS left to apply for our STEM graduate school mentorship program!! ☺️🎉

On today’s emotional rollercoaster: I cried because one of my close friends successfully defended her dissertation today! Then I cried because the advisor of one of my mentees told her “she’s in a competitive program and should leave because she’s not ‘competitive material’…” 🙃
Never underestimate the impact of offering words of appreciation or support. An email or text that takes a few minutes to write can change someone’s entire day.
1/10 ACS on-demand talks are live! Go check out my talk to hear about women's career choices in chemistry at UW–Madison and what we learned when we stopped comparing women to men 🧵
When a trauma survivor says “I’m tired” it means:
My experience has been denied. I can’t spend more time defending myself & try to heal.
It means: I’m going as fast as I can & can’t get my mind & body to work together the way I’d like.
Survivors, please rest without apology
what brought you to this research project?
white men: idk i was interested
woc: after generations of senseless structural oppression i needed to find language to name my situation and will not rest until i have an answer
We are so proud of our very own twitterless Kevin Hunter who designed the artwork for the #BCCE2022 website⬇️! We are so lucky to have Kevin’s design talent in our group and in the CER community. Check it out! ⭐️⭐️
