Conditional accept with minor revisions? I'll take that! 🎉

Infinitely happy to join the grand team working on the special issue "Food, Gender and German Studies" led by Maria Stehle and Bradley Boovy for Feminist German Studies @univnebpress.bsky.social

Jamie was an infinite treasure, a generous mentor to the graduate students fortunate to enjoy his guidance at Emory and a brilliant mind whose valuable work will outlast him. 😔

The GHS is saddened by the recent passing of Professor Emeritus James van Horn Melton (Emory)

Prof. Melton served on the advisory board of 'German History' and was an eminent scholar of early modern German and Habsburg Europe, the Enlightenment, and the Atlantic World.

Pals, do you know a graduate student who has written a fantastic, 6,000-9,000-word (unpublished) essay in German Studies? Maybe you've written it yourself? The GSA is looking to award the best grad student essay, as judged by @claudiakreklau.bsky.social, @dominiquereill.bsky.social, and me!
