So honoured to write a short piece with @shanedbergin.bsky.social in the 10th Anniversary edition of ‘The Slow Professor: Challenging the Culture of Speed in the Academy’ by Drs Maggie Berg and Barbara K. Seeber.

Cover of ‘The Slow Professor: Challenging the Culture of Speed in The Academy” written in black font against a white backdrop. The cover also features the outline of a snail and the words “Tenth Anniversary Edition” across the top in gold lettering

Magical day on Saltee Mór. It’s taken quite a while for this Wexford woman to get there but it was a visit to remember. Puffins, guillemot, razorbills, kittiwakes, Manx shearwater, gannets, every type of gull and tern, and all in great numbers.

Two puffins standing on a grassy cliff top with the sea and some sea stacks visible in the background.

If you’re in #Blackrock be sure to take a moment to marvel at this fabulous literature map of the world. The wonderful team @ravenbooks.bsky.social have read and can recommend all 80 ❤️

Delighted to receive a copy of this book on “spaces of mental health and wellbeing” in the post. The wonderful @sheenahyland.bksy.social and I contributed a chapter on how the university as a lived space shapes students’ experiences and understandings of distress.

Photo showing a large book on a table. The book title is “Rutledge Handbook on Spaces of Mental Health and Wellbeing”. The cover is black with a large abstract marble-effect image.

Can we also take a moment to behold the in-house pulpit and baptismal font/sink?

Excellent day with scholars from Ireland, NI, Wales and Scotland considering threats to, and opportunities for, our research and innovation ecosystem. Thank you to Celtic Academies Alliance and the Royal Irish Academy for hosting such a thought-provoking day.

Really pleased to see The Belonging Project on display in the UCD Student Village. This exhibition of UCD student and staff written and creative expressions of belonging will be in place for the remainder of 2023. #DontMissIt belonging.ie
