Ok, fess up, everyone. Which PhDs out in #AcademicTwitter have parents without any college degrees at all? #firstgenhttps://twitter.com/FromPhDtoLife/status/1222884700525600769 …

Hey #AcademicTwitter - what's your most intense professional cringe moment? Mine: I was a visiting speaker at Fancy U. Dinner plans had gotten as far as making a reservation and telling me, but apparently no farther. I ended up sitting by myself at a table for 8 for 2 hours.

11 years ago I finished undergrad with a 2.95 GPA Today I received an official offer for tenure track professor at a R1 university. You can do anything if you focus and work hard #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #phdchatter #phdchat #progress

Academia can drag you down because rejection is the norm, not the exception. You must celebrate every success, no matter how small. Set small goals and throw a mini-party for yourself when you meet them. #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

Sexual predators should not be allowed at academic conferences. If professional associations know that a prof has repeatedly violated students over decades, they are morally and ethically obligated to protect those survivors by taking action. #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

Rejection is exceedingly common in academia. The acceptance rate for top journals is about 10%. Can you imagine a lawyer who loses 90% of his cases or a doctor who loses 90% of her patients? #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

I am part of #AcademicTwitter from this point forward. No shit posting, nothing. Please don't disturb me.

Over the course of our careers in academia, we will pay thousands of dollars in annual membership fees to the discipline’s national org. As paying customers we deserve an assurance that known abusers will be barred from events #soctwitter #academictwitter #academicchatter

That glorious moment when Microsoft Word tells you: "There aren't any comments or tracked changes in your document." @AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

#essays, when well thought of prior to it's writing, will not only have all pillar points well articulated but also becomes a juicy piece to read. #AcademicTwitter

To all the #stem students out there: I'm planning a (free) online workshop to discuss PhD programs (what they are, how to pick one) including Q&A w/ panels with faculty & recent PhD grads. It's on April 8th. More details soon! #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter @SPIEstudents

I woke up today to an opportunity for a cool new research partnership that probably wouldn't have happened without #AcademicTwitter. Fingers crossed that it gets funded and off the ground!

Hey #AcademicTwitter I need to spread some positivity Would you pls help by leaving a comment w/ something you like abt research and/or academia? Asking for a friend. Actually, that friend is @C_Balbi90, the most badass person I know. @OpenAcademics #AcademicChatter #phdchat

Alright guys, this is huge! I have officially accepted a tenure-track assistant professor position in the Biochemistry Department at Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, starting in late Fall 2020! (1/5) #AcademicTwitter @AcademicChatter @FuturePI_Slack @NIEHS

With all the negativity lately, I just want to say I enjoy my PhD. It can be hard and stressful, but I cherish the privilege of working as a scientist and meeting amazing collaborators. #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter #phdchat
