@TBowersBrown Thank you!

[Ruth Squire @curiousruth]

I wrote a little something about the prospect of OfS guidance on collaboration and the challenges of where the power lies. Lots to get into!

@JonRainford Hurrah! Now I know it's going to be a great discussion 😁

[Ruth Squire @curiousruth]

Would love to see some of you at this for a very relevant and timely conversation! I'll be sharing some of my research findings on third sector influence on WP policy.

[Ruth Squire @curiousruth]

Me, with opinions on evaluation?! Bonus points for spotting the literary reference in the subheadings.

Would love to know what others thought!

Quick book recc: making my way through the exercises in this book by @DrHelenKara and Janet Salmons and have already identified some really useful 'assets' in chapters of my thesis I was going to skim over. Very helpful!

Evaluation and research people - we're hiring! SEER is expanding and we need experienced evaluators to join us in supporting our small and specialist HE members.

@FCSlattery @colin_mccaig @JonDeanStuff It actually ended up being many layers of raspberry and pistachio pancakes 😋

[Ruth Squire @curiousruth]

Grateful to have had an amazing (and successful!) viva experience today. Thank you to my examiners who were challenging in a way that got me talking about things I've been so invested in for years. And huge thanks to my supervisors @colin_mccaig and @JonDeanStuff. Now for cake.

[Ruth Squire @curiousruth]

We got some great and varied perspectives on the 'business' of WP here, including my bit on the context of enactment for third sector orgs. Take a look! 👇👇👇

Young people aren't choosing biology or chemistry because they're easier - they're more likely to choose them because young women are told that "women can't do hard science or maths". Perhaps @Miss_Snuffy would like to stop guessing and read our research: https://t.co/gJhfZw8zCo
