Senior lecturer positions all require a PhD in Australia. But internal university candidates for promotion don’t? They just complete an equivalence form to prove their research worth? Just another anomaly in the promotion process that continues to baffle me 😵‍💫

When you ask students not to email you about their grade changes as they are being made across this week (these things take time centrally) and a few email you saying: “I know you said for us not to contact you about our grade changes, but…” 🫨🫨🫨 #goaway #academia #emails

Lack of #care in #academia and a lack of acknowledgment by the university re. the gendered way in which #womeninacademia are treated online. Further evidence of the #patriarchy at work. Blind to what we face online 🫨 Yet expect us to be here and take the heat alone 🔥
