If I could offer students one bit of…advice: be brutally traditional about what is printed on your degree. If you are first-gen or in any way non traditional, this goes double. Let rich kids get degrees in AI. You get something called “English”.

The danger is that degrees are regarded as worthless as nobody believes students have acquired any skills any more, at least not ones they couldn't have hot from just going into an office job from school.

I gotta find a new hair stylist and I hate that for me. You know how hard it is to find a loctician who can do microlocs and won’t send a “hey boo” text or have an aggressive,brightly colored website with unnecessary rules? I might have to become a DIY girlie 😭

This is the energy we all need to have, I echo @drtrmorton.bsky.social that we need boots on the ground! I’ll spare my musings but I believe boots on the ground has multiple meanings.
