I wish my students knew something about what it means to do research in mathematics. Most of my students have an idea about what lab science research looks like, but not about math research. Or that mathematicians are solving new research questions & publishing papers. +https://twitter.com/jagoldma/status/1166452702001475585 …
How important is it to you that your students know these things? Are you willing to give up some of the time and effort you now devote to your research, in order to get the word out? Only mathematicians can do this work, but very, very few seem willing even to attempt it.
