I joined the board! I'm the Newsletter Oversight Editor, and in that position will work to help reveal the "" and less obvious resources.

For those who were unaware, all issues of the CSWEP Newsletter are available online: aeaweb.org/about-aea/committee

Recent newsletter issues have discussed everything from navigating the (pre-doc era) PhD process, to getting research funding, to seminar culture.

While I’m waiting for some media to warm up, I’m going to repost a thread I originally posted elsewhere about an activity I developed for our incoming graduate students this year.

After hearing a lot about the hidden curriculum, I wanted to provide some mechanism to ‘onboard’ our incoming students on topics related to success in graduate school that belong to the hidden curriculum. Long thread.

Question for folks with a bit more experience/perspective: what are the pros/cons of giving a "state of X research" "keynote-style" lecture vs a typical econ-style research talk?

I have a talk on the calendar which could be either. I can see benefits to both, but could use some help thinking about tradeoffs

Student ‘slave auctions’ illustrate the existence of a hidden culture of domination and subjugation in US schools

“Reenacting a slave sale as a prank tells us that we have a great deal of work to do with our students so they can distinguish between intent and impact,” Osumi wrote. “They may have thought this skit was funny, but it is not; it is unacceptable and requires us to look honestly and deeply at issues of systemic racism.”

What do you do if you end up with more data than can fit in your dissertation (or book or article)?

My latest on how knowing which kind of story you're writing can help you figure out which pieces to publish first and what to do with the leftover bits.

is one of the major themes of our podcast. tries to silo us into buckets. The forces scholars to compete with each other for scarce resources in the dark while making it feel like it’s our fault. We’ve benefited so much from a community of academic aunties and we hope you can too.

All this to say, we’d love to rebuild our community of scholars that we had at the bird site over here!
