Please share with your networks. I am the search chair and happy to answer questions!

Will is fantastic and you should hire him immediately

Anyway, it was really pretty cool to win an NSF, esp. as a woman social scientist doing justice-centered work with other Black scholars. The window of that funding being quite literally months before being yanked away, when the planned work would
have take years, feels apropos of everything.

Feeling grateful for the opportunity to share about my ongoing project and connecting with the fantastic crew at PolNet-PaCSS 2025.

Special thanks to @shugars.bsky.social for capturing the moment!

Fantastic keynote from @brendannyhan.bsky.social, urging us to resist tall tales and be mindful of skewed distributions. Simple narratives about social phenomena misdiagnose the problem; we need to better study the tails where serious harms occur #pacss2025 #polnet2025

Wrapping things up with a keynote from the inimitable @brendannyhan.bsky.social

Very interesting work from @hwaight.bsky.social and @csmapnyu.org examining narrative similarity between news stories from global media sources. Methodological challenging because stories may communicate the same ideas/claims without using the same ngrams #pacss2025 #polnet2025

Very cool work from Erin Walk (@asc.upenn.edu) looking at politicians who are attacked as being extreme. Using a longitudinal data set (2016-2024) of Twitter posts and cable news transcripts, she examines who gets attacked and how visible those people are in the media #polnet2025 #pacss2026
