Wrapped up my last campus talk of the fall semester. It was great seeing UC Riverside - I now have a visual reference for at least one UC school. The humanities and social sciences faculty didn't tear me apart :)

For my friends attending ASHE, I hope you'll consider attending or sharing with a friend this workshop on publishing a book with an academic press. We're hoping to demystify some things and offer advice based on our experiences with three different presses.

Really proud of this. Not just because of the study it recognizes, but also because I've been doing public scholarship for a while now. It really matters to me, and it means a lot for even a slice of it to be celebrated.

Happy Labor Day. Here’s my modest contribution to our knowledge of working conditions for staff and faculty in higher ed. And how we can make it better collectively. JHUP is running a sale-30%off with code HLAB25 at checkout

I’m rarely snarky but I just cannot anymore with this stuff. Saw on LinkedIn, to put it in proper context.

William & Mary launches a “bold vision” to rename the college of arts and sciences…the college of arts and sciences.

Don't think it lasted terribly long, but my book was an Amazon #1 best seller in the categories of educational administration and education organizations and institutions. Okay, so a little niche, but I don't care 😆

Today’s garden shot is my replacement hibiscus. These do quite well down here, unless you let them get too cold like I did this winter.

Amazing day speaking at the APLU Council of Student Affairs Summer Forum. First time seeing people with my book in real life. First time signing a book!
