One of my hottest takes is that I favor ideological affirmative action hires in polisci. I just think that means hiring both conservative AND Maoists political theorists, and letting them duke it out. Preferably across campus.

Finally watch The Librarians documentary on PBS. It's wonderful and sad in documenting the hate filled campaign against diversity in libraries.

We'll open up registration/call for papers later in the Spring, but #CUBoulder will be hosting @priec.bsky.social the first week of November. We're expanding to a day and half event to accommodate the large demand we got last year. Hope to see folks out in the mountains. 🎿 🏔️

Since we're in the middle of polisci grad admissions, let me take a moment to tell y'all why Boulder is a solid choice. First - the mountains. There aren't many research universities built right next to the Rockies, and the view never gets boring. Not to mention all the other amenities.

Given the reactions to this it seems necessary to state something quite obvious: Neither is this AI promotion nor is this a call for scientists to simple "use" whatever Claude coworker provides you with.
I wanted to know what Claude coworker is able to do. This is hours of work done in 2 minutes.

I’ve always recommended to junior scholars to not write a book until after tenure because they don’t accumulate as many cites. My completely data-free advice appears to have empirical backing.
