SUMMARY:Careers for PhDs: Science Writing
DESCRIPTION:You enrolled in a STEM doctoral program because you love science. But if you’re like a large proportion of your fellow PhD students\, you may be rethinking whether a bench scientist career is for you. Science writing\, and science communication more generally\, can offer a great way to keep the wonder of science at the forefront of your work\, while affording a breadth of engagement with scientific discovery unavailable in a hyperspecialized research career. Numerous and varied opportunities exist in a wide range of employment sectors\, from academia\, industry and government to healthcare\, journalism and freelancing. A panel of PhD-holding science communicators will discuss these paths\, their daily work lives\, and ways current PhD students can explore and prepare for careers in the field. \nCareers Beyond Academia invites you to REGISTER HERE \nThe panelists:\nBethany Brookshire (PhD\, Physiology and Pharmacology\, Wake Forest U.\, 2010)\, Freelance science writer and podcaster\, author of Pests: How Humans Create Animal Villains (Ecco\, 2022). \n  \nJill Sakai (PhD\, Neuroscience\, U. of Wisconsin–Madison\, 2006)\, Freelance science writer and Assistant Managing Editor\, Science News Explores \n  \nAshley Smart (PhD\, Chemical Engineering\, Northwestern U.\, 2007)\, Associate Director\, Knight Science Journalism Program\, MIT\, and Senior Editor\, Undark Magazine \n  \nSponsored by Syracuse University

Corridor partnerships take place on lands of the nations of the sovereign Haudenosaunee Confederacy\, founded at least 1\,000 years ago at Onondaga Lake. Central New York remains home to the Haudenosaunee: we acknowledge the ongoing history of dispossession across the Confederacy\, and are grateful to live\, work\, and share ideas on these lands.

SUMMARY:Empowering Graduate Students to Advocate for Change
DESCRIPTION:The CNY Humanities Corridor “Humanities Beyond the Academy” working group hosts a series of mini-residencies for publicly engaged humanistic scholars\, bringing together those interested in public humanities and careers outside the academy. Current mini-resident Leonard Cassuto\, author of The Graduate School Mess: What Caused It and How We Can Fix It and (with Robert Weisbuch) The New PhD: How to Build a Better Graduate Education\, offers a workshop specifically for graduate students in the humanities\, helping those who want to see and advocate for change within their own departments go about this successfully. The workshop aims to give attendees a toolbox for practical change\, indicating how they can achieve consensus on goals\, garner support\, and turn talk into action—letting graduate students themselves serve as key agents of change. 5 copies of Cassuto and Weisbuch’s book will be given away by raffle to attendees. \nThe CNY Humanities Corridor group is comprised of Cornell University\, Syracuse University and University of Rochester.  \nTo Register for this virtual event.
