A6a: There's a lot of data analysis and a lot to do in general. Also trying to figure out what the heck fields I even fit in is challenging. #SAGrad
A2: I'm also trying to keep up with my blogging for @GradHacker. I was a bit worried I'd run out of ideas after ending my disabled in grad school series, but thankfully that's not been an issue. #SAGrad
A2: TBH one of my big goals has been to get the publication record that'll support me getting a job. Improving access for the next bunch of disabled students in higher ed will be easier if I'm still around to do it! #SAGrad
A1: Alyssa (they/them/theirs), University of Rhode Island Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program. I work on Augmentative and Alternative Communication in terms of brain-computer interfaces and use by autistic adults. (And I'm an autistic adult who uses it.)
#SAGrad
FT: Going short on sleep probably won’t lead to getting more done anyways. Go to sleep. #SAGrad
A6: but good advice for not getting too stressed in the first place was about saying no to things that wouldn’t help me graduate. (Do I listen? Meh. But it’s good advice.) #SAGrad
A6: TBH I’m always wary of “overcoming” as a narrative. Probably because people like to frame my disability stuff that way pretty often, and no, that’s not what I do. So idk about advice on overcoming stress. #SAGrad
A3: I also read science fiction and fantasy, and I’ll draw geometric designs if I can find a big enough clear desk space. #SAGrad
A3: computer games. I play Pokémon Go, RuneScape, Sid Miers Civilization series, Mount and Blade, and some cell phone games.
#SAGrad
A2: tbh I’m not sure. We’re kind of a diffuse cohort because of the nature of the neuroscience program here. #SAGrad
A1: I don’t have any finals per se this semester, but I’ve got several paper proposal, revision, and submission deadlines falling in the exam period. #SAGrad
My name is Alyssa, I use they/them/theirs, I’m studying neuroscience at the university of Rhode Island, and I’m not really a gif person but I expect to be writing over break. #SAGrad
FT: Since failure is built into the system, ways of handling it should be too. Individual answers to systemic realities aren’t sufficient. #SAGrad
PQ: Yes, failure happens to everyone, but how do we handle it when the consequences of it are real, and possibly large? It’s not just self care. #SAGrad
A2: At least enough for people to know it’s normal and expected and part of the process, for sure! Exactly how much that is may vary, but it shouldn’t be a secret. #SAGrad
A3: I tend not to talk huge amounts about them, because I’m BUSY. I don’t know if those things will get accepted or rejected, but... neither if I don’t get them out. #SAGrad
A1: I applied to 9 grad programs, got into 1. So that’s 8 rejections right there. #SAGrad
Seriously.
“@OberBecca: Confession: I tally how many times you say Passion in interviews #SAgrad #sasearch #sachat”
“@cindykane: #sagrad... you know some good info on GA compensation at your school. Please add it here: #iupsahe
I'm also looking for resources for helping students dealing with violent home lives #reslife #sachat #sagrad
Chronology of the foundational documents of the student affairs profession. @rcstabile #sahe #sagrad
If I run errands long enough maybe comps will go away. #sagrad #sagradproblems
Piaget reference in #gossipgirl ? Awesome! #sagrad
If I went to bed earlier would I avoid this? Or should I just stay at the office until I pass out? #sagrad
