I'm also seeing reports that Morningside Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at UMass has rescinded ALL offers of admission for Fall 2025. Lack of federal funding & lack of stable opportunities for dissertation research are cited as causes.

It was hot today—almost 37 degrees! Definitely felt it while out and about. Had lunch at one of my favorite spots, then checked out some op shops for a handbag, but they were all too small.

Had to make a vet appointment for Meesa’s vaccinations next week and double-check her microchip since one of the companies storing that data shut down. Thankfully, we’re not affected.

Also looked over some of my uni course material in preparation for next week when it officially starts. Picked up lamb, chicken, potato salad, and Greek salad for dinner for the next two nights. Now I’m exhausted and ready to relax.

Dear Graduate student,

Are you overdue for a thesis committee meeting, but feel like you have nothing to show since your last meeting? I'm begging you to schedule that meeting now!

Either, your research is languishing and you need help! This is what your thesis commitee is for.

Or, you are doing fine and the committee is there to tell you that.

Future you will thank you.

For those of you with a master's degree, how about sharing the title of your thesis or capstone. (Share the title with NO additional context, including what or where you studied...just the title).

I'm guessing we'll have a wonderful variety of disciplines and topics.
