Uptown

Siamo in partenza per le Bahamas! Un sogno per noi da tanto tempo, lo realizzeremo come prima vacanza in tre. Staremo al Port Lucaya Resort and Yacht Club. Non vedo l'ora! L'unico problema sara' un' attesa di varie ore ad Atlanta - speriamo che Ele non si annoiera' troppo.

Found this on my redbush chai teabag (great tea, btw):

To learn, read
To know, write
To master, teach

Beautiful!

As I meander deeper and deeper into the (not so secret) secrets of academia, I notice an astounding number of quite seasoned female associate professors. I mean, folks who by their institutional age should have been promoted to full many years ago. And their publication records don’t look much different from their male colleagues. I only have anecdotal evidence, but there must be some stats out there to prove this phenomenon. Why is that? Because women are still picking up the slack at home? Because we are notoriously bad negotiators/self promoters?
