Carnivals and miscellany...

By tsmith on September 19, 2007.

I've been terrible about submitting to and promoting fellow bloggers' carnivals lately, so here are two to take note of: the latest Grand Rounds is here at Six Unto Me, while you can get your fix of ecology bloggin' at the most recent Oekologie over at Fish Feet.

Finally, if you're looking for even more reading material (or scouting for new blogs), The Scientist has an article asking for your favorite life science blogs.

As several others have already noted, after almost 12 years, Scienceblogs is shutting down at month's end. Though I've done most of my writing elsewhere over the last few years, I'd certainly like to keep the archives of this blog up somewhere, and maintain it as a place to post random musings that…

The high cost of academic reimbursement

September 29, 2017

Spring, 2004. I was in the second year of my post-doc, with kids ages 4 and 2. Because I was no longer a student, the full brunt of my student loan payments had hit me, which were collectively almost double the cost of my mortgage. To put it generously, money was tight. Truthfully, we were broke as…
