Here is a statement from a West Virginia Linguistics professor whose entire department has been eliminated. It provides additional context to the Board of Trustee's decision to cancel 38 majors and the faculty tenure and untenured faculty lines associated with them.

In which an entomologist describes her own mite infestation in a peer-reviewed journal. And then it turns out to be delusional parasitosis, an entirely bug-free delusion. But hey, points toward #tenure anyway:

Does anyone happen to know of the existence of statistics on tenure tracks? How many fail to reach to tenure and why? How long does it typically take and what does that depend on? I'd be curious!

No one is immune from attack, professors are warned in Tampa - “Critical thinking is under attack in the arts and humanities…” “The demonization of higher ed is really unfortunate and higher ed has been dragged into the culture wars, whether we like it or not.” #Academia #AcademicChaatter #AcademicMastodon #HigherEd #HigherEducation #Universities #Tenure #Colleges #politics #Florida #CultureWars https://www.tampabay.com/news/education/2023/08/04/no-one-is-immune-attack-professors-are-warned-tampa/

A Texas A&M Regent says "McElroy’s hiring would derail the “purpose” outlined for the journalism program: “to get high-quality Aggie journalists with conservative values into the market.”

Tell me again how liberals are controlling university values? /s

Call for Abstracts now open! A new Commonplace series, co-edited by me and Juan Pablo Alperin, asks authors to share their thoughts on #tenure promotion and recognition models to answer the question, "How can we better reflect the scope of work happening across and beyond academia in our recognition models?" Accepted pieces will receive an honorarium of $150.

This morning’s email brought a manuscript I was scheduled to index *last August.*

This is why I tell early career researchers who need a book for tenure that they need to start planning their book very early. Like, month one of the first year post-degree. Starting to revise the dissertation or drafting a new project to book-in-hand is reliably four years.

But sometimes, it can be longer.

Now is a great time to book me for September/October to start planning your first book.

Are Florida laws chasing university faculty away? Some see a ‘brain drain.’ #Florida #BrainDrain #Tenure #University

I recently explained to a senior colleague in my department, who asked if I want to be an administrator at some point, that a limiting factor is the fact that one of my top #CareerGoals is to never need to dress well, and that this helped me choose Minnesota as my department.

Then reflected again on how great it is to have #tenure when I say shit like that
