Quick reminder that Margaret Nettesheim Hoffmann and I have an open call for proposals for an edited collection on the histories and futures of career diversity: https://lnkd.in/g9q7Jybm. Proposals are due on September 3! In this book, we want to use “career diversity” as a case study to explore how systems change happens in the complex bureaucracies of higher education. With that in mind, contributors shouldn't be shy about making recommendations or engaging in situated speculation, and chapters should go beyond just describing past initiatives.

I was part of the graduate committee in my department. I was a board member during my master's program. All the information I share is valuable if only you will follow. As a graduate student representative during my master's program, I had the privilege of being a liaison between the student body and the faculty. This role allowed me to participate in meetings alongside graduate coordinators and department heads, where I gained valuable insights into the decision-making processes and the challenges faced by both students and faculty. One of the most rewarding aspects of this position was the opportunity to advocate for the needs and concerns of my fellow graduate students. Whether it was discussing improvements to academic programs, addressing resource allocation, or enhancing student support services, I was able to voice the collective aspirations of the student community. Through this experience, I learned the importance of effective communication, collaboration, and diplomacy in navigating the complexities of academia. It also instilled in me a deep appreciation for the significance of student representation in shaping the educational experience. I believe that the knowledge I gained from this role can be instrumental in helping others understand the dynamics of student representation and the impact it can have on fostering positive change within academic institutions. If you want to win scholarship, 1. learn how to communicate with grad coordinators. Send professional emails. 2. Demonstrate you're an exceptional student 3. Read and understand the requirements of the department 4. Focus more on your research skills and career goals. 5. Ask questions
