S205: Task Management Oct 24, 2019

This journal club topic is near and dear to Sarah and Whitney’s hearts: task management. In a world where email is unavoidable, scheduling is more important than ever, and deadlines are all too real, how does one sift through the clutter to be as productive (and sane!) as possible? Whitney and Sarah share how they organize their lives, give advice on apps and programs to help function more efficiently, and commiserate over coming to realize that there aren’t simply enough hours in the day to fit everything in (and that’s probably for the best!).

Today Sarah speaks with Dr. Ariana Vigil, a professor in the Women’s and Gender Studies department at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Ariana also shares feelings of isolation throughout her career, how she balances being a single mother with her busy workload, and how getting tenure has impacted her work habits.

S203: Money ‍♀️‍♀️ Sep 26, 2019

In today’s journal club, Sarah and Whitney dive in to a topic that’s frequently seen as taboo: money. Sarah hates personal finance and rarely logs into her bank accounts; Whitney balances her checkbook for fun -- but the two agree that paying for grad school, negotiating salaries, and managing finances are important but can be difficult. They reflect on their own experiences to offer advice to AcaDames at multiple career stages.

S102: Journal Club: Division of Labor Feb 14, 2019

We discuss division of household and work labor as it relates to our lives as AcaDames. Jumping off from an article in Harper’s Bazaar, we parse between the emotional labor associated with managing the feelings (of the men in our lives in particular) and the invisible labor associated with, for example, managing schedules of loved ones. We discuss our experiences in the context of academic institutions that were built with men in mind who have support systems comprised of women (e.g., a stay-at-home wives). We consider the implications of this conventional model of academic home-life for those who are in same-sex partnerships or single. Finally, we propose potential solutions (however problematic): outsourcing labor, changing norms around division of labor, and toeing the line between the efficiency of assuming household roles and the risks of being pigeonholed into them.
