Many people assume that women with doctorates earned them under conditions of comfort or advantage, as if advanced education were a luxury added to an already secure life. In reality, many women complete their degrees while navigating significant hardship, instability, and constraint.

A raven Halloween decoration I made from air-dry #clay and hand-painted — her name is Raine. 🐦⬛
I’ve arranged her with other #Halloween hanging #decorations I’ve created over the years, some from air-dry clay and others from resin. I still haven’t managed to take them down!
