Next Episode: "Bored of Regents"

In our first episode, we compare universities’ responses to COVID-19 in the spring, when case numbers were low but rising, and the fall, when they are high and steady. We also wistfully remember the days when an academic job market existed and friends could share snacks while preparing for campus visits.
