@ass_deans Yet the ass Dean is always right. I don’t know how that math works.

I do not recommend starting the academic year with the flu 🤒 How can I be in catch up mode before anything has actually started?

[Tara McManus @taragm2008]

Feeling that end of summer vibe. BJ isn’t liking it either.

[Tara McManus @taragm2008]

@drshawna @AcademicChatter @OpenAcademics This is great, Shawna. I’ve been talking about these points with MA student for years. I’ll be sharing your article with them this year so it’s not just me saying it this time.

Polio is back and Roe is done. This is the worst time travel imaginable.

@Delta And now my #Delta flight to Boston this morning is delayed to 10m With no information other than “it won’t be canceled”. I was supposed to be in Boston at 6pm yesterday.

[Tara McManus @taragm2008]

@Delta Yes. But you canceled my flight for my vacation. So, now I’m stuck waiting for a red eye which if that flight is at all late or canceled I’ll miss my vacation entirely.

@HALcruises Can’t wait to board in just a few weeks!

@tangoldman @DanStreible @CivicCinema I know nothing about your specialty area, but (a) welcome to PHD-land, and (b) I love that the defense was rewarding and supportive (kudos to the committee for creating that environment!)

[Tara McManus @taragm2008]

@natpenn So many assumptions. So much baggage. Sorry you got the wrong end of that.

Update! The @ComUnlv Associate/Prof job in Rhetorical Studies has been extended to December 1! That's one extra month to get in a cover letter, CV, and names of three references. We are open to all areas of rhetoric with a preference for digital, science, or the environment.

[Tara McManus @taragm2008]

@natpenn Excellent way to start the Fall!
