@UniMelb I have tried since March to order a student card. Each time your staff have hung up on me. Your online ordering system is telling me I can’t order online and need to speak with stop 1. The line has been busy now for an hour. Seriously unimelb admin can someone fix this

What is your preferred way to do co-author meetings over zoom? I like to make powerpoints; it gives us something to focus on (taking the load off doing constant face-work), requires specific prep work, and serves as a good memory jog between meetings.

[Georg Tamm @georgtamm]

@UniMelb @UoMStop1 Thanks for this tip however the system isn't allowing me to do this. I wish that it would be easier to just talk to someone and get these things sorted.

@UniMelb @UoMStop1
I have been trying for over an hour now to get a hold of someone to replace a student card. All three times I have been hung up on. can you please fund this unit properly so that students with disabilities can get what they need.

One of the biggest challenges about ADHD is that you've gotta ride the dopamine train. It's currently 5am in Melbourne and somehow I'm focused and able to be awake /productive at this hour. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.

It's a reviewing-heavy week. A few things that I do to put myself in a receptive (but mindful) headspace:

Choose music with positive, upbeat vibes

Light good smelling candles

Avoid sugar crashes

Drink water

Remember that we're all trying our best 😊

@SoderstromSara Phd programs aren’t designed for inclusivity at all. The number of bigoted and uneducated professors that exist in our profession is astonishing. Never in a million years did I think I would need to explain disability adjustments to someone bearing the name Dr

[Georg Tamm @georgtamm]

Every time I get an email from a distressed student, I think of how difficult my own journey was. I'm so grateful for the kindness people some lecturers showed me and each day I model this behaviour in my own tutoring and students. Sometimes all we need is some affirming words.

[Georg Tamm @georgtamm]

I am so inspired by the students in WORK3202 at @sydney_business. Teaching these students to self reflect on their goals, leadership aspirations, and how these shift throughout the course gives me great hope for more emotionally intelligent and inclusive leaders of the future.

[Georg Tamm @georgtamm]

@UniMelb It's been months and I still cant get UniMelb to call me. When you complain to the Department of Education, the University promises to contact me. It's been three weeks since that complaint and nothing. UniMelb I am tired of fighting for myself.

[Georg Tamm @georgtamm]

@unimelb I'm so happy to be coming back for another semester. But could y'all give SEDS more resources? It is impossible to get an appointment this time of year and this shouldn't be the case. Disability and Equity are necessary for students like me to participate in our studies.

[Georg Tamm @georgtamm]

@HeatherM211 @queensu Absolutely. Welcome to the Professoriate. A well-deserved achievement.

[Georg Tamm @georgtamm]

#AcademicTwitter How does your University deal with Faculty who have disabilities on career milestones e.g. Tenure, Promotion, etc?

[Georg Tamm @georgtamm]

@sus_a_nability but more importantly, just be social - as weird as it is to talk to strangers it's a unique time where you are all literally nerdy people talking about your research. :)
I've made lifelong friends and coauthors at AOM. Best decision of my life to go.
