Cool paper. A lot of work!

I'm trying to find some sociology papers to bring into my intro statistics course for grad students. Straightforward quant analyses where the data are publicly available. Does anyone have any suggestions?

What game is this and how are you keeping score?

Congrats, Nathan!!!

I plan to start all my future papers by saying where I gave talks on it before publication.

My university is removing our landlines from our offices to save costs. The thing is I ripped my landline out of the wall the moment I got here because it rang and I didn’t know how to use it.

But then what would I use when I use thanks sarcastically for the comments I think are wrong.

Shout out to @caitlinpatler.bsky.social for her hard work on this. I’m happy for the small part I played in this, too.

Has anyone done a FOIA request at the National Archives?

For my inaugural post on this app, I'd like to invite anyone attending #PAA2025 to come to my talk! I'm very excited to attend my first PAA @popassocamerica.bsky.social meeting and share this research (and hopefully get good feedback as I refine and revise).

If you have leads on academic or academic-adjacent jobs that would make sense, I'd greatly appreciate to hear from you.

Surveillance from a “small army” of private citizens never stops at immigrants. See the American Protective League during WWI.

I am thrilled to share that I will be joining the Department of Sociology at Emory University this fall as an Assistant Professor! Excited for a new chapter in Atlanta 🔥🍑

This is a trick question. A sociological finding doesn't count as a breakthrough until an economist rediscovers it.

list of banned keywords

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

I’ll be mentioning immigrants and internment. I’ll add the gender component just to make sure I’m flagged.

I’m working on a NIH grant. What are the chances the NIH still exists by the Feb 15 deadline?
