ASU Derby Devils Victory!

4/25/2015

 
So proud of our ASU Derby Devils, for their 243-205 victory over University of Arizona's Derby Cats last night at the Sun Devil Fitness Complex in Tempe. The team worked so hard this year, after last year's  loss in Tucson in the first-ever collegiate roller derby bout. I couldn't be more proud of and grateful to graduating senior, founder, and captain, Maiden Asia, or to the team's coach, Nun Meaner. That I get to count faculty adviser to our roller derby team as part of my job is an incredibly lucky, happy thing. Here I am with three (three!) English majors on the Derby Devils roster of 14, along with our mascot, Sparky. Go Derby Devils!

I so enjoyed writing this piece  for The Chronicle of Higher Education about why I love and value academic conferences--and how you might approach them so that you will, too.

Pomona College Jane Austen Lecture

4/5/2015

 
So grateful to the wonderful audience that came out to see my Thursday lecture, "Jane Austen Matters," at Pomona College. Thanks for nodding and laughing (and not nodding off) in all the right places! I also got to spend time with Prof. Sarah Raff and her talented students, talking about the history of the book at Honnold Special Collections. A special shout-out to the talented student who designed this fabulous poster for my visit. Love it!
