AAHHHHHH!!! Yay Kasif!!! A brilliant scholar AND person! So glad you got to celebrate your moment! (And congrats on being ABD!!!)
Kasif Rahman (MA '20) returned to K-State to walk in today's @KSUGradSchool commencement following a four-year pandemic delay. Best wishes to Kasif (currently ABD) as he completes his Ph.D. at the University of Texas at Dallas!

Made it to the #TaylorSwiftCornMaze today!! Walked like 6 miles, got lost a few times, but ultimately finished all 3 mazes. (A genuinely accomplishment when you have my sense of direction.)

A lot going on at the moment bc I'm officially ABD, which means the #TaylorSwift dissertation IS HAPPENING!! Are you "Ready for It...?"

It's that time of year again where I get choked up over college football bc I always forget how young they are until I see them with their helmets off & then I just see the 18-22 year olds who sit in my classroom 3 days a week.

I shouldn't watch the Olympics live, because I don't actually watch the Olympics live; I just pace & panic & say, "Ahhhh I can't watch this!"

Earlier this week, I was asked to give a presentation about my dissertation work on @taylorswift13 at a local restaurant in BG. So I practiced an upcoming lecture from my class. Please enjoy the many faces of me living my actual dream. #TaylorSwiftScholar @taylornation13 @tkelce

A big shoutout to @Snennasnule for the pictures & to all my friends (including @shipley_haley) who came out to listen to me talk about something that I talk their ears off about daily. Scholarship doesn't exist in a bubble & I'm so blessed to have you as a support system!

Happy first day of school (aka "The Best Day") to my #TaylorSwift summer class @bgsu! I am SO excited for the next 6 weeks of talking Taylor & Fandom with my students! But the real question is are THEY "...Ready for It?"
