84% of full professors in America are White. In case you were unsure, that does not match the overall makeup of the country or the student body.

My Life on the Road (or MLR) is not what I expected...the idea of not waiting for experience to come to you permeates the book.

I’m not alone in being troubled by how people suddenly disappear in life, right? That’s essentially why the internet was created. You may have heard rumors about Al Gore inventing it for military purposes... Lies!

I, like far too many women in this country and the world, have had a wide variety of experiences involving sexual harassment.
