Lots of schools now teach writing (VERY GOOD). However, I don't know about you, but the most useful pedagogical training *I* ever got before being unleashed on a higher ed classroom was, "the dry erase markers will always fail you, so bring your own" (side note: this is in fact very good advice)

So writing training is scattershot. People pick it up from their mentors, and if your mentor is a great writer and a great teacher then congratulations! But more likely you're just expected to pick it up through vibes and by piecing together advice along the way...

For graduate training, I'll talk about public health, because thats what I know. There is no systematic standard or training approach to teaching writing. AND in graduate education we devalue pedagogy as a distinct skill (and lets talk about all the ways that THAT is gendered) ...

One of my most obnoxious beliefs is that the skill of making rigorous arguments in writing is a technical one and isn’t something most academic training programs in most fields actually train their students in.

It’s easier to just teach (& to use) the proper jargon, the buzzwords & code phrases that serve as passwords into the private clubs of each discipline. Well-structured essays are HARD.

Writing well - making cogent arguments, without using strawmen or blatant cherry-picking to “prove” your points - certainly isn’t taught in higher ed. In part because such a low percentage of academics can do this well consistently.

I actually completely agree with the criticisms Nico Harrison had about Luka and at the same time think you never ever trade a generational talent like Luka.

A thing that happens a lot when you have any kind of bioethics training is that you get asked to opine on, or teach, or facilitate discussions regarding situations that are not ethically murky in the least, which does not engender confidence in the judgment of the person making the request.
