A weekly collection of interesting things I find around the Internet. Find something I didn’t? I’d love to hear about it the comments!
What people were talking about this week
Biologists who’ve served on grant review panels talk about how to not get grant funding.
The belief that higher ed is “not a business” runs deep – but it was never true and it’s even less true today.
Rutgers offers a Pre-Doctoral Leadership Development Institute to teach graduate students about higher ed administration.

A few comments about comments
The whole question of being unhappy in academia — no matter what stage you’re in — can feel fraught. If you’d like to comment but are feeling shy about “being out there,” feel free to make up a persona or comment anonymously. You can also email me directly.
First-time commenters are always moderated (because you wouldn’t believe the spam I get), so if your comment doesn’t show up immediately, hang tight! Chances are, I’m not right on my email.
And most of all, let’s all practice compassion for ourselves and others in this difficult time and space.
