The grass may not be greener on the other site, but the sky is certainly bluer, if you catch my drift. Come find me, if you haven't already...

Hi, I'm a baby platypus

Read our report, led by @alkimkaraagac, here: makeahome.ca/publications With thanks to @GSA_UWaterloo and @SSHRC_CRSH

Mature students from other countries and their families are among the victims of the housing affordability crisis, and are not the cause of it, says Nancy Worth, one of the researchers on a two-year study out of the University of Waterloo. therecord.com/news/waterloo-…

@tony_damiano Looking forward to reading it!

Interested in gaining research experience in sustainable and equitable transportation? I have 2 funded MA positions available to study mobility of care at McMaster's School of Earth, Environment & Society. Funding is for two years.

These similarities and differences highlight the need for more comparative research in student housing and student geographies research... there is currently very little!

New paper (50 free eprints!) out now: we compare students reasons for residential mobility during the COVID-19 pandemic in Temuco, Chile and Montreal, Quebec: tandfonline.com/eprint/MDPSKBA…

@tony_damiano To be fair, a lot of them do seem to think that's the bar...

And the rest of the (excellent) special issue is here: tandfonline.com/toc/rhpd20/cur…

Digital version of the article is here: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Timely that this arrived on my desk in the first week of the school year: a physical copy (!!!) of my article w/ @WrayAJ in the @HousPolDebate Special Issue on student housing. We look at how municipalities in Ontario approach planning for students in near-campus neighbourhoods.

@philmarfisi I know you are messing about, but the 401 thru the region *is* sometimes referred to as the Sauerkraut Line, dividing KW from Cambridge...

Exciting to see @NickRevington and I's study out officially in @HousPolDebate's new special issue on Student Housing: Politics, Planning and Urban Change. It's a fantastic compendium of scholarship about student housing and what it means for cities: tandfonline.com/toc/rhpd20/cur…

@DeondreSmiles I keep a CV that has all that stuff, and then depending on the context I need a CV for, I selectively remove things that are less pertinent. In general I keep conference presentations done as a grad student but remove minor awards. (I'd keep bigger ones on, but that's just me!)

@JoshLipnik I don't know but as a Canadian I find it very silly and annoying. Especially since most are not even intuitively based on the city name.

What’s the deal with Canadians referring to their city by its airport code? Has that always been a thing?
