@jhaushofer Research on social mobility has found that college can serve as a great equalizer, but Zhou (2019) found that this is largely due to the selection process of working class students that end up completing college degrees: https://t.co/UQJxicNjM8

1. Bruno Latour’s “After Lockdown: A Metamorphosis” (2021) is a crucial statement of his new political ecology, his re-orientation of ideas of the "global" and the "local", and his doctrine of “engendering” as a re-thinking of what he previously called "Actor-Network Theory".

Are you planning to vote "No" because you don't like the idea of an entity giving advice to the Federal Parliament? If so, here is a list of some entities that do exactly this right now, that you will also have to abolish:

Conservatives haven’t shrunk the public sector. They have instead grown a shadow, for-profit consultant sector - fed on public funds. It puts profit before purpose, riddled with conflict of interest. It surrenders fearless advice. The task ahead: rebuild. https://t.co/o1TrJMRtSE

Last night, renowned writer @benokri honoured the memory of Victoria Amelina by reciting her poem, ‘Poem About a Crow’ on stage after the #PillowmanPlay. Amelina was killed following a Russian missile strike in #Ukraine on 27 June 2023. Our thoughts remain with her family and friends. @hattiehattie @arshi_mona @estreetprods @lilyallen

We had a world record beating run of economic growth and it's gotten us where exactly? Could it be that distribution is more imporant than growth after all? Time to rethink how we manage the economy and the role of government #WellbeingEconomy #auspol https://t.co/Qbtz2S66iS

More evidence that allowing a segregated schooling system to become entrenched as it has in Australia negatively affects the least advantaged students the most https://t.co/JHCn4aBrjo

"More than 40 leading scientists have resigned en masse from the editorial board of a top science journal in protest at what they describe as the 'greed' of publishing giant Elsevier"
Hopefully others will follow, we must change this exploitative industry https://t.co/dOKZqktQrf

Chapter on critical reflection and critical social work included. Looking forward to engaging with the field

@cjdenial Very interested to know about boundaries, gender and kindness in practice. I keep@thinking of those student surveys of academics that consistently show female academics who aren’t perceived as nurturing get rated lower.
