FutureAssyriologist Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Does anyone want to take bets on what "this afternoon" or "tonight" even means.... UGH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB9797 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Had trouble again with the committee selection this year. I’m in philosophy, but doing AI ethics. But the group philosophy with the classical languages, religious studies, etc. So you’re not certain you’ll get reviewers with an idea of your topic.

wintermute42 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Committee 1 here, too....I pitched leveraging science fiction in community-based writing workshops for STEM engagement and science literacy for my research. Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I teach with continuing education programs and our public library, so it's a neat way to translate that into research...community-based education offers low-to-no barrier access, so it's a great way to reach people and especially youth!

I am already working part-time as a waitress in a lounge on top of academic duties and I am so burnt out. thestressedone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gretta Conroy Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Got rejected for FRQ this morning as well! Does anyone know if there is a waitlist for FRQ? As in, if people decline the award, it might go to the next in line? My friend who rejected FRQ last year said that there is, but I can't find any information online.

I'm sorry but this is just... so silly 😂 Can they not do the required work on the portal so half of applicants don't have to wait an extra day based on their names?

Gretta Conroy Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 That's weird that people didn't receive the email. I did not contact SSHRC directly at all. The email is an official one from "Z-Fellowships'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
