Steinbeck's East of Eden; Mantel's Wolf Hall trilogy (esp. The Mirror and the Light); and I love, love, love Wouk's The Caine Mutiny. I also thought O'Farrell's Hamnet was wonderful.

You could see if a local university career center has a place to donate business/professional clothing that is good quality. Students can't often afford nice business attire and these types of "career closets" can be a great way to help them out.

Would love that!

I will read this and share with our FYE team today!

Yes, I'm reading this book right now!

#TeachLearnSky: Curious if anyone has SHORT but impactful pieces for students to read/discuss in an FYE course? No books. Have already decided on chapters of @peterfelten.bsky.social's book for students; looking for other great pieces for students on how to be successful in college/life. Ideas?

Judge Luttig! Welcome to Bluesky, and know that you always have an open invitation to return to Oshkosh!

I respect this. My meal plan is always at the top of my Outlook calendar!

Hmmm, someone has MASTERED the mandatory information security training! ;) (I just finished mine last night!)

This is one of my favorites; always makes me tear up, especially now that my own children are getting older. I so appreciate your posts on poetry (your own and others), even if I don't always comment. Thank you for being a beautiful voice.

My issue is that I toss the markers that don't work on the floor so I can throw them away, but then forget to collect/toss them so they end up back in the rotation and the cycle begins again...

This is how my Dad used to make them for me as a kid: toasted and buttered. I haven't eaten one in ages, but this sounds really good right now! The salty/sweet combination was heavenly.

This is infuriating. And only part of the full amount that was NOT spent on our students or faculty. Good Lord.

This poem is a gut-punch. But so, so beautiful and powerful. Thank you for sharing it.

Love it -- so helpful! Thanks a million!

Beautiful! I knew you were the right person to ask! :) Thanks so much!

Is there a university teaching / teaching in Political Science / Scholarship of Teaching & Learning (SoTL) group on this site? If not, there should be! @colinmbrown.bsky.social?

This is such an excellent resource, especially for those of us teaching about climate governance. Thank you!
