So, the college came and took photos of my first-year honors students working in the Southern Labor Archives last week, and would you just look at these scholars, handling Old Media, wearing the special gloves like pro researchers! 🤩

I wanna be…

I wanna see…
…what the peeps are skeeting.

My first-year honors students are using the Southern Labor Archives to make a podcast together about labor issues and activism in the U.S. Behold these scholars in action, and stay tuned.

Whenever I am asked, and it is often, who my favorite poet is, instead of giving the real answer—I don’t have one; I have many—I give the people what they want and produce a name. I name Louise Glück. There is undeniably less beauty in the world now than there was. 💔

Read some poems with the journal yesterday. It was a really lovely evening, and if you were there, thanks for helping make it so!

My department offered guidance on the use of AI chatbots. I adapted and expanded it to communicate my priorities to students. Sharing in case it helps anyone.

(I'll be doing more primary source research and fewer, more scaffolded assignments with my students this semester, too.)

Exceedingly grateful to Hilary Leichter’s Temporary for introducing me to the concept of the “bitch hangover.”

Nobody’s seen my dog here yet, so…BEHOLD! This is Elvis.
