“Elite East coast”, and waiting for someone to do this for academics from East and West Germany (invite me, I’ll have lots to write in your open text answers).
In our research on socioeconomic background in academia, we ran a survey. Over 2,000 faculty members responded (thanks if you were one!)
Social & cultural capital showed up time and again as key issues.
A few findings you might be interested in...🧵
