The way PhD programs deplete you and still expect you to show up and do all the things is so wild. I’m completely checked out

This semester, I reluctantly made attendance in class optional & posted all lectures online. I received several emails from people with full time jobs, new parents, and people caring for loved ones saying that they could not have gotten through otherwise. Learning moment for me!

In light of CA’s ongoing commitment to equitably address college affordability, CA leaders must ensure that students with least resources who are awarded a #CalGrant don’t lose their aid due to unnecessarily restrictive satisfactory academic progress policies #PassAB789

In 2001, at 22 yrs old, I began my #PhD research making $22,000 from an external scholarship
Rent in downtown Ottawa was $650 for a lg studio, 15 minutes walk away from my office
We pay the same 20 years later and the cost of living is so much more. #SupportOurScience so we can do it well

When an organization doesn’t address harm, it’s on the person harmed to address it.
Sweeping issues under the rug only places the onus for restoration and healing on the person who was never granted justice or a chance to say they deserved better from the org.

Our favourite moment from Saturday's commencement! So glad we could be there to wish our graduating students well. Dean Curzan needs to read the room and respect our right to strike!

This is a good example why Black people don’t like to be put under the “people of color” umbrella

I’m amazed when people call me radical for telling the truth about work.
Most of us were raised to be honest, but we lose that as adults.
I hold to my values w/ faith that truth will always prevail. I may not see the fruit of my truth in my lifetime, but I will speak up.
