The times, they are (always) a-changin’

http://www.universityaffairs.ca/images/BlogSpeculativeDiction.jpgBy . Reading through the higher ed news over the weekend, I came across an item that began with the line, “The newspaper and book businesses have been transformed in recent years. But not education.” That illustrious beginning (as well as the rest of the article) points to a problem with coverage of higher education: the way the issue of change is addressed. Read more...

The “dream job”

http://www.universityaffairs.ca/images/Blog-phd-to-life.jpgBy Jennifer Polk - From PhD to Life. Last week a Twitter contact asked me, “Would you ever go back to academia if your dream job opened up?” We both knew he meant a university faculty position, tenure-track. We knew this because talk of a “dream job” is common among graduate students and PhDs on the academic job market. For me, now, the question was jarring because I don’t think about the academic job market at all these days, unless it’s to empathize and lament in solidarity with friends and colleagues. More...

Positively True

http://www.universityaffairs.ca/images/BlogCareersCafe.jpgBy .

Translating knowledge … in Interlingua!

http://www.universityaffairs.ca/images/BlogTheBlackHole.pngBy Jonathan Thon - The Black Hole. It should come as no surprise that I am a strong advocate of knowledge translation. While this has customarily meant making science accessible to persons that are not experts in one’s field of study but are otherwise important supporters of one’s work, translating research across language barriers even within a field is an equally important pursuit. Indeed, while most impactful scientific journals today are published in the English language, I shudder to think how much excellent science is being published in other languages to which I have absolutely no access.

'Think local’ doesn’t mean lowering our aspirations

http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQWMTBx0CPzMFK637Zb6AgNbjhxfVRtTVkrwKoq4ZPL2p18KKWOEwB3AWIBy Martha Crago. Staying faithful to our principles.
When I worked at McGill University, Heather Munroe-Blum, then president, often referred to “local impact and global reach.” Others have coined “glocal,” a term that I am not particularly fond of. Nevertheless, the issue of how universities manage the mission of addressing local needs while performing at a global level of excellence is an interesting one. More...

http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQWMTBx0CPzMFK637Zb6AgNbjhxfVRtTVkrwKoq4ZPL2p18KKWOEwB3AWIBy Sparrow McGowan. Voll pushes at the forefront of game design.
