The “hidden (or invisible) curriculum” is baffling to those entering academia. It can be doubly vague to first generation students and others with underrepresented identities/experiences. Part of the road to equity is teaching (and sometimes challenging) these things!

I will be offering some pedagogy-related workshops this summer, which I'll post about soon. Saturday, June 7th at 2pm ET I'm offering a workshop about requesting workplace accommodations. My goal is to make this process less opaque. #Disability #Disabled #Accommodations Link: bit.ly/RequestAccomms

Applications for #NPSP are due TOMORROW (May 23)! We offer 1:1 mentor pairings to support undergrads/postbacs interested in #Psychology PhD programs and hold workshops about academia’s “hidden curriculum.” Looking forward to welcoming our 6th cohort! z.umn.edu/NPSP25-26
