I wrote about breast cancer and mammograms and (a bit of) my past six months. There's more to say, but it's a start. salon.com/2023/05/28/mammogr…
It took far too long, and I think the BoT might want to hire one of our @lehighenglish alumni for their communications in future, but this is nonetheless an important moment--and hopefully a sign that Lehigh can do better going forward.

Huge relief.
I'm still mad they introduced this awful directive in the middle of the summer & forced so many people to try and figure out how to respond.
Incompetent, thoughtless, cruel, pointless.

So to summarize - The Trump Administration has rescinded the 7/6 F-1 students directive. Schools can go online if they want. No new I-20s needed. F-1 visas should be proceeding. Congratulations Harvard and the Wilmer Hale team. Big big win!

Well, it finally happened. This #ICE International #StudentBan got me back into the “organizing effective lobbying action via twitter” game.
Want to make sure our lovely international students can keep their visas? Here’s how to do it:

I am doing my best to be Not On Twitter during my sabbatical, so most of my tweets are about 2 weeks out of date, but: I enjoyed seeing my colleague @Electrostani quoted in this essay on gender, race, and the work of graduate programs: chronicle.com/article/The-Ge…
I'm lucky to collaborate with the wonderful @e_shreve on issues like this!

@jenna_lay and I wrote up a blog post for @MLAgrads that distills some of our central MLA panel points concerning ethical graduate student mentoring. We want to hear other ideas and examples! mlagrads.mla.hcommons.org/20…

This is a very nice overview of some of the conversations around graduate education at MLA this past week, including references to the talks @e_shreve and I co-wrote and co-presented. insidehighered.com/news/2020…

@jenna_lay & @e_shreve : "A multiple mentor system avoids an attachment to one person which is a precarious link to a particular career."

Finally read this great @catsonatardis piece, "Why is Curriculum Change So @%&$# Hard in Graduate Education?"
Looking forward to discussing these issues tomorrow in Seattle! @jenna_lay @triciamatthew @roopikarisam
