We received over 1000 applications for 3 PhD positions (I know!🤯) Since not too long ago, I was on the other side of the table... I want to share 3 basic general tips for those applying for PhD positions and postdocs! 🧵

Don't ask students to share a "Fun Fact" about themselves but instead ask them to share a "Boring Fact" 😃 I can tell you as someone who made the switch a few years back, it results in a ton more "fun" facts and whole lot less anxiety in your students 💜 Great for adults too 😎

Happy to have the opportunity to sign on to this open letter calling for math orgs to lead the charge in organizing hybrid math conferences for greater equity & accessibility in our community. As a new parent this feels particularly pertinent and timely! sites.google.com/view/hybridmat…

fun PD activity today. We sat down and described our best teaching day- a day when our super teacher mode was activated. We passed that card to the right and the person next to us illustrated the description. The next pass used only the illustration to write a description … fun!

No proposal or manuscript is ever perfect, but to be effective, it does eventually need to be finished. Nothing we submit will ever be as good as it *could* be and just recognizing that can be an important step forward. Perfection is not the goal. Finished is the goal.

Nicely stated Dave Kung (龚仲孝)🇺🇦☮️ Also, a fun flashback of when I got a new knife and I sliced open my finger at my grandparents and dropped a f-bomb as I left room. I was in TROUBLE. Then the blood came and I was in less trouble but was told use other swears at Gps. Memories- Thank you!

In the face of recent abrupt shifts in federal funding the Spencer Foundation has developed a bridge grant for impacted scholars, in collaboration with The Kapor Foundation, The William T. Grant Foundation, & the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. spencer.org/grant_types/ra…

TLDR: What if we use all of our quantitatively able abilities to create a new community funding support for academic needs? bsky.app/profile/drbran…
