The top reasons graduate students are leaving academia 🏃‍♂️

1. The funding climate is discouraging

2. Too competitive/lack of jobs

3. Lack of work-life balance

"Less than half (48%) of respondents say that they would prefer, ultimately, to work in academia. That’s down from 56% in 2019"

"I don’t want this kind of life"

N = 3,200 international students that responded to a Nature survey

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.

Review She Wrote

After four rounds of peer review, #Reviewer3 is found dead at his keyboard. The Editor is missing. The suspects are the article authors, but the journal’s system won’t reveal the their names without the editor’s login.

Can Emeritus Professor JG Fletcher use #Clues in the manuscript to figure out who is responsible before they come after her?

Question for experienced reviewers 

Currently working on my first manuscript review report for an academic press. The manuscript is quite good and I don't see any glaring problems or need for major revisions. Given this, I'm not sure how much feedback is necessary or appropriate. For those who have done this before, any common dos and donts I should be aware of? @politicalscience @academicchatter

World Population Angst 

8 Billion People.

I just can’t wrap my head around that. I know, we’re trying to talk about how strong we are and how good we can be to each other, but I keep thinking of the and and and yet we keep making more people. I want to be proud and strong but I think I’m mostly just worried.
