Woke up to the sad news of the loss of another parental figure/mentor in my life. The brilliant, and warm Evelyn Fox Keller - my constant cheerleader since my STS days passed away this morning. I had the good fortune of spending time with her this summer....RIP

[williamkrieger @williamkrieger]

Sigh

[Associate Deans @ass_deans]

I am so excited! Next week I get to announce course cancellations and reassignments! I have so much confidence in your ability to dump the new course prep you’ve worked on all summer and replace it with a brand new prep!

Go out in the morning. Breakfast is a Bear’s most important meal of the day.

Hike in groups. Bears like to have options

[williamkrieger @williamkrieger]

Sounds right to me.

La advertencia de Elon Musk llegó tarde! Jessica Card, brillante programadora, le dio vida a ChatGPT conectándolo con un Furby usando reconocimiento y síntesis de voz. Su conclusión: "I think this may be the start of something bad for humanity" En criollo "Estamos fritos". Ja!😃

Way to up your game, Philosophy.

@mxmclain Time to rearrange their library…

[williamkrieger @williamkrieger]

@ass_deans was this your plan when you told us that you were lessening our carbon footprint by cutting our offices in half? This might just fit on my wall.

My university sent me a pocket sized version of my doctoral degree, is this common? I guess just in case I get pulled over by a cop who needs credible information about the ecological and evolutionary consequences of whole genome duplication

Well this is all the way out in Brooklyn. Maybe they didn’t know? ;)

@LongFormMath @HowToChairADept The chair is dead. Long live the chair!!

[williamkrieger @williamkrieger]

@HowToChairADept Re succession, I would also add that you (in your waning days as chair) should take a look at your files (whether paper or electronic) and work to organize them. The amazing amount of institutional memory in those docs will be wasted if your successor can’t navigate them. Thanks

@Tine_Rass Not sure that the medieval period treated women with such knowledge all that well…

[williamkrieger @williamkrieger]

I feel so used

[Associate Deans @ass_deans]

We didn’t hire you to discover the truth, find meaning, or make the world a better place with your research. We hired you to get grants with overhead that returns to the college!

[williamkrieger @williamkrieger]

@chicagotribune This was no gaffe. At least she finally feels comfortable being honest with everyone.

[williamkrieger @williamkrieger]

@MrMichaelRubin First thought was that she was making a clever dig at the recent Georgia primaries, but then I thought, her? Clever? Same chance as Sith Lord jar jar.

[williamkrieger @williamkrieger]

@ass_deans Haha. I win. My uni also threw in a branded keychain to sweeten the pot. #Negotiator

@MrMichaelRubin Haven’t checked
