My first very graduate student successfully defended his Master’s thesis this morning. It’s only been 1.5 years but the ASHES Lab is making headway! #AcademicTwitter #masters #defense

Wait so here in Raleigh they’re dismissing school because it’s too cold? 👀 All I know is… I went to school in the ‘Blizzard of ‘96’ in NY.

I’m now at the age where I have to take a nap before going to watch a movie so I don’t fall asleep in the theater. 😴👴🏾

My students surprised me with an end of the year appreciation/ bday lunch!😬🥲 I guess this is what happens when you create an environment where people enjoy coming to work everyday. 🙃 Check us out at theasheslab.com #theasheslab

I thought the flood of work emails would start on Monday (first day of the semester), but nope—they kicked off yesterday 😅🥲 At least I had the courtesy to schedule mine for a fresh week after the holiday! 🗓️ #AcademicLife #InboxOverflow

It’s official… I’ve joined the ranks of the bespectacled. 🤓 After years of reading my way through college and grad school with 20/20 vision, my eye exam this morning confirmed I’ll need to start wearing glasses. Here’s to the end of an era! 🍻

I’d love to see the audit report on my academic browsing history as I prepare for our field days: “Medical cabinet for human remains” “Tools for excavating fragile bones” “Transport supplies for human remains” Just another day in the life...🤣 #FieldWork #Research #Bioarchaeology

It’s amazing how I can go from being extra early, thinking I have all the time in the world, to being late just like that 🫰🏾. 😩

Confession #426: Around this time each year, I wear my academic regalia while running errands. The result? People are noticeably kinder, and occasionally, I receive complimentary items. For instance, during dinner outings, a free dessert often finds its way to our table. 😄🎓😝

This academic year has been such a roller coaster. Honestly, if the Illuminati is recruiting academics, I’m a great public speaker and I just need a few million for research. Let’s talk. 🤣🥲
