@tzimmer_history The structure of the academic market is so broken. It does not have to be this way.

I can’t even tell you how many short-term contracts I’ve cycled through: I crossed into the double digits many years ago. At age 42, as the father of two little children, I am simply not willing to do that anymore, to keep chasing academic jobs and ask my family to come along.

Today is my last day at Georgetown. After 18 years of teaching, and 12 years as a full-time professor in Germany/the U.S., it’s the end of my university career. I will now try to make it as an independent writer and commentator - which is exciting and terrifying. Stick with me!

@Catherineoscopy This is one of my favorite things! We usually do pen and paper art but it's just the same.

The whole thing seems pretty goofy, but year after year, I find it pretty successful in bringing the text to life. The activity is here if you want to give it a try. (5/5)

Once again, I introduced Marx & Engles to Intro to Sociology @vassar w/ the CUTE alienation activity I developed a few years ago. STEP 1: Students worked in "Cute Guild," sculpting creatures w/ playdough. Prof. Sajadian came by to "purchase" three Cute Creatures. (1/5)

It was so much fun to interview Mariana Craciun for @socannex. We discussed Craciun's new book From Skepticism to Competence (2024, U Chicago) and the process of learning a new way of thinking and acting while on the verge of professional practice. open.spotify.com/episode/1ulMxy…

@jenni_tabler Is this bill essentially a copy of the other divisive concepts laws?
