- My first AHA annual meeting was Chicago 2019 (the before-times!) I was teaching a 4/4 load, so I attended a lot of the teaching sessions, and also non-teaching focused sessions about topics I just wanted to learn more about. I learned a lot and met some really interesting people! #AHA26

- Reposted by Lauren Brand"While other universities report that the humanities are shrinking, at Berkeley, the opposite is true. The music major is the fastest-growing major on campus. We are finding bigger classrooms because film is exploding. English is back to the numbers we saw 15 years ago. We are hiring" bit.ly/4ohKuOe
