Write a blog for @Gend_Soc about how the gender structure is being impacted by, or impacting, the current global health crises? As Arundhati Roy wrote ‘the pandemic is a portal.” How should social scientists envision the way forward? Submit blog to gendsoc @uic .edu.

@karnebe So as advisor & journal editor, I suggest perhaps the student is not yet a perfect writer and maybe the feedback improves the draft. As an experienced writer, I always still am grateful for someone reading my draft that closely. Far worse to have an advisor that skims your work

@JessicaCalarco I dream of a day that we don’t identify by our methods. But use the ones we need for the questions we are asking...

Reminder to academics: You're working whenever you are answering emails to your department or university, when you are helping students get on line, or mentoring them from afar. Working is anything to do with your job, not just writing. Now of all times, give yourself a break!
