Graduation is always a highlight. This was our first ever evening ceremony but was lovely to catch up with colleagues and see the students cross the stage.

In exactly the same boat. Time off was interrupted by proofs, deadlines and short notice meetings and now I'm triaging my email and counting down until I can book some more time off. Bon chance

Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

Still thinking about Marcy Norton's keynote on modes of interactions with animals in Europe and America and what they reveal about subjectivities. Fascinating stuff.

'the results also challenge the narrative that generalist or academic degrees are inherently low value. As you can see, most subject areas—including history, languages, and the creative arts, often targeted in these debates—show strong subjective outcomes across the three dimensions'. 3/3
