Reminds me of the “unexpected budget shortfalls” a provost who got paid $970K/year (and had a large house from the university) told dept. heads about. #Deanlets #AdjunctLife

Sounds good to us. #MLA20 #GenerousMLA We know folks like @amylynchbiniek have done this. We’d like to see more FT faculty step up & support contingent scholars, grad students, & others in the academic precariate.

I try to pick up a meal or two for student/contingent folks, and encourage them to order in a way that allows for a second meal from leftovers.
