Academic Activities

[♀HealthMatters]

I'm currently in school, getting a graduate certificate in Women's Studies. I also work part time, and was just accepted to my second conference of the year. The first was back in October, the Southeastern Regional Popular and American Culture Association. In April, I'll be on the Baby Boomer panel at the National PCA/ACA conference in San Antonio.

I'm taking my last 12 credits as an undergrad, and working on my third senior thesis (that's what happens when you essentially triple major), an analysis of how Upton Sinclair affected UAW organization at Ford in the late 1930s. I'm also revising one of my other senior theses for a PAT conference at Oakland U in March, and I'm trying to edit (in my spare time) two other major papers for possible journal submission.

I'm sort of planning for the worst right now, and figuring if I get rejected from all grad schools this time around, I'd better start trying to get published now so that when this process comes around again in 9 months, I'm back and better than ever.
