@SmithChristianM @McBeeIHE Congratulations!!

I am lucky to be joining the McBee Institute of Higher Education at the University of Georgia this summer as an Assistant Professor. @McBeeIHE is a very special community where I am excited to teach, learn, and be. I'm filled with gratitude for all who helped me get here.

This graphic about where people go after college is ENLIGHTENING and probably something my dad would have cut out from the newspaper if it was in there in 2002. @andrewvandam washingtonpost.com/business/2022/…

@beccasue99 @AcademicChatter Writing can be an iterative process. In college courses undergrads often turn in a final paper and then never touch it again, but with academic writing, writing and rewriting (and rewriting) is normal and they shouldn’t feel pressure to write it perfectly the first time.

I'm giving a talk to undergraduate students about academic writing and presenting 👩‍🎓 What tips do you feel really stuck with you and helped through the years? #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

Thrilled to share my @EmergAdulthd article w/ @ATKuperberg! We found financial support & living w/ family was common, & reciprocity could be a burden. Receiving help prolongs—but also facilitates—the transition to adulthood @ASA_Family @ASAnews doi.org/10.1177/216769…

The RCT in Oklahoma shows that fines and fees produce a criminalization of poverty. Court involvement and the risk of incarceration is piled on people who can't pay. There's no deterrence and no cost recovery 7/9 journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

New article with @dannyjschneider on public investments in children @ASR_Journal doi.org/10.1177%2F0003… Key finding: families with less income/education use state money for spending on children. Little evidence this is the case for higher-resource families

Jen Augustine and I’s new paper in Demography (open access!): The SES-related gap in US mothers’ parenting time has closed significantly over the past 15 years. Stop the narrative that low-SES mums aren’t as dedicated to their children. What we found👇 read.dukeupress.edu/demography/art…

New piece out in @Harvard_Ed_Pub with some brilliant academic mamas @LinnPoseyMaddox @profm_de_r @flyrhys & Rachel A. Johnson. What a pleasure to collaborate with you! It is going on my @UCRGSOE syllabus! Thanks to @UWMadEducation @FordhamNYC & @UCRiverside for your support.

I’ve witnessed so many privileged white kids commit all manner of illegal activity while in high school & college and then go on to live successful lives without any long lasting consequence.

Published in @Slate Magazine bit.ly/3cpdYrG White, Stuart, and Morrissey (2020) find that "Black people killed in predominantly Black neighborhoods in the city in 2016 received roughly half as much news coverage as white people killed in majority white neighborhoods."

Congratulations, @tressiemcphd and @ForrestDStuart! This is some very exciting news--two sociologists. It certainly is a moment to celebrate. 🎉🎊

Stanford researchers(@ForrestDStuart @KaileyCWhite & Shannon Morrissey) have found that local news media have not treated Black and Hispanic lives as equal in value to white lives in stories. Research in.@SREJournal news.stanford.edu/2020/09/21/hom…

One of the more interesting and important findings is that neighborhood REALLY matters, perhaps more than individual race of victim. Victims killed in White neighborhoods receive more coverage and humanizing narratives than victims in Black and Brown neighborhoods. 3/4

My coauthors (@KaileyCWhite & Shannon Morrissey) and I read, coded, and analyzed EVERY SINGLE article on EVERY SINGLE homicide in Chicago. We discovered that articles about White victims are much longer than those about Black and Brown folks, and use more humanizing language. 2/4
