So excited to start work at MARCH! I'll be building from the fantastic public history work by @ProfMires and team as well as starting new initiatives in the environmental humanities with researchers across campus and regional community organizations
This July 1, we welcome @Jillio as the new director of @MARCHRUCamden, giving sincere thanks to @ProfMires, who led @MARCHRUCamden for over ten years. #RutgersPride #RutgersExcellence bit.ly/43ZWjPA
want to say how proud I am of what the union and esp the bargaining team was able to win in Trenton. Still working for BHS clinical faculty in their ongoing negotiations but the framework includes a 48% raise for adjuncts AND job security which is an amazing victory

With Twitter's change in ownership last week, I'm probably in the clear to talk about the most unethical thing I was asked to build while working at Twitter.

I’m going to stick around here for a little bit because Philly sports but I’m also on assemblag.es for the great mastodon migration if y’all want to hang out over there

Got to host @jeezluisjorge today! On the board behind me you can peep the pre-visit brainstorm with horror students (how is exoticism and xenophobia connected? consumer culture AND consuming culture?! body horror as a way to think about appropriation?). What an awesome class!
Thank you to everyone who came out to our Horror Stories event and a special thanks to @jeezluisjorge for giving us so many nuggets of wisdom on creative horror writing!!
Stay tuned for the next event coming soon
