The subject area starter pack is a terrific way to build your network while also reinforcing your impostor syndrome when you notice you aren’t included in the list. It’s the entire academic experience in one place!

Wow
He never really rose
In a practical sense
But today I suppose
We see the fall of Pence
Who found that one could lick
The boss’s boots too long
So long it’s hard do the trick
Of singing a different song
Mike has learned again
What others always knew
Your legacy my friend
Is always what you do.

The world is still burning
And sooner or later
Someone’ll be calling
“Hey bring up some water!”
But dousing the flames
Takes more than smooth words
Or strategy games
From security nerds.

Or so goes the trope—
Peace falls like rain
At least that’s our hope.
