T-shirt saying this is what an awesome full professor looks like. There is a tumbler that says full professor because badass isn’t an official title.

I became a full professor this semester. Shoutout to my research group for the fun t-shirt and tumbler. It is truly rewarding to work with such a terrific group of emerging scholars committed to learning and impacting their community in positive ways. #research #academia

Welcome to Bluesky! Good to see you in Ireland. I graduated from the University of Limerick.

Please add me. Thank you.

Thank you for creating. Please add me.

Agreed. I would add that many of these outcomes are dependent on the types of papers accepted for review. There is a lot of variability in submission type.

I am also over the average suggestion of reviews so I’m thinking more about what’s a reasonable amount of reviews/balancing review requests.

I’ve received quite different takes on peer reviewing. Many say 10 is too much. That doesn’t begin to include AERA reviews or other types of review such as funding proposals.

Accurate? From AI: “The average number of peer reviews per year can vary depending on field, institution, and publication rate, but a typical range is between 3 and 10 reviews per year; with many aiming for around 5 reviews annually.” #edchat #highered

My attempt at a starter pack (one of BSky’s handiest features). Tag and I’ll add you. go.bsky.app/Bz3cYP4#chemed
