“Compressing or reducing the curriculum threatens to narrow students’ education at precisely the moment when society needs graduates with stronger critical thinking, communication skills, scientific literacy, & civic understanding." — @proftwolf.bsky.social, @rweingarten.bsky.social #academicsky

Pennsylvania state universities weigh 3-year bachelor’s degree option

The development comes as colleges continue to face criticism over costs and some schools try to stem declining enrollments.

I'm sorry, what? In writing my first monograph, I spent six weeks trying to track down a citation in TWO languages I didn't know. And good thing too, because the citation was wrong. That's scholarship. That's research. You know, the thing we're trained to do?!?

The reactions of some researchers on Twitter finally being held responsible for not having read the very paper they submitted are... something. Mainly, they don't think they should have to check every citation or make sure the data is real and accurate. Because it's too hard, I guess.

I’m sorry but if you aren’t sure of a citation, whether what it means or that it exists… why are you citing it. why are you referring to something you haven’t read or don’t understand? that defeats the entire bloody point

Disabled people deserve to be the heroes, the love interests, the sisters, the friends, and the happily-ever-afters just as much as anyone else. As an author, creating Gemma was my way of adding one more story where disability is simply part of a person's life—not the entirety of who they are.

Lemme explain what the words BELIEVE WOMEN should mean. They don't mean you have to believe women no matter what. They do mean that you have to treat women as a source the same way you'd treat a man.

I have a final and an oral interview tomorrow that I feel super unprepared for, so most my time is going to that. I just want it to be Friday afternoon already so it's in the past. That being said, this month has been my best for word count so not all bad. #WeeknightWriters #amwriting

Q1: How are you holding up this week? (Or not holding, as the case may be) #WeeknightWriters

Notepad that says “#WeeknightWriters How are you holding up during this tumultuous time?”

It would be super nice if I could just learn lessons. #life #blog #WritingCommunity #amwriting #ADHD

Balancing Act

Last Week's WC: 16,733 I've always been clumsy. I have the seemingly quintessential ADHD trait of bumping into furniture and doorways as though I'm not aware of where my body is in time and space. Which is frustrating to say the least, but nowhere near as frustrating as the definitely quintessential ADHD trait I have of hyperfixating on one thing at a time, almost always to the exclusion of other things.
