Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 02/02/2025Not a single mention of Luka on my timeline here…I’m clearly doing something wrong! 250
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 28/11/2024False. Social rituals like those involved in Thanksgiving are actually the final step in the Myth of Jones. 110
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 23/11/2024This is a great suggestion! Be careful, though: you might think someone is doing this with you when they’re actually using you to sub in so they can leave the conversation. (Another common AAR phenomenon. 😁) 100
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 23/11/2024Never! For those who don’t know, Martin is one of the funniest, cleverest, and kindest people in the field. You literally can’t “trade up” from him! 010
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 23/11/2024You should rank the AAR/SBL cities. That would be fun and no one would get mad, I bet. (I can give you a head start: Chicago is dead last for AAR/SBL, and it’s not close, sadly.) 000
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 22/11/2024Ick indeed! I don’t think anyone does that anymore, but yikes, why did anyone ever do it?? Whoever it was definitely missed out. 120

Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 21/11/2024Good question! I’m a bit out of the loop…but I don’t think so. I think zoom interviews have taken their place. I’d actually be interested to hear if I’m mistaken about that! 000
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 21/11/2024Sorry to hear that! Yes, may the birds have mercy on us all this year. 😁 010
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 21/11/2024My first AAR, I was supposed to have an interview at the Hilton, but it turns out I was at the wrong Hilton. So I ran to the other one but the interviewers had already left. That’s when I noticed that a bird had pooped all over my suit. May you all have a better experience in San Diego! 4763

Could y'all help us out a bit? A little bit of crowd sourcing can go a long way! Do share our profile with those in your networks who you think might be interested the Divine work we do here in Aberdeen! 35142
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 19/11/2024I missed your presence on twitter. So I’m glad to have caught up with you again here! 030

Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 18/11/20244. The Explainer: some teachers are especially good at helping students understand things, whether by bringing difficult ideas down to earth or relating them to a larger context. Here I think of Angela Carpenter, Cornel West, and Sarah Hammerschlag. 010
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 18/11/20243. The Pedagogue: these are people who have an extensive repertoire of teaching techniques and know when to deploy each of them. Neil Arner and Erin Galgay Walsh are both exceptional at this. 100
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 17/11/2024Thanks so much, Andy! I’m truly grateful for the way you’ve stepped up to help people find their way here. 020
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 17/11/2024I'm also feeling a bit like a disembodied self here, so I think I will import some representative tweets just so people get a feel for the sort of persona I maintain. This seems important, especially as so many people are trying to figure out who to follow. I may not be your cup of tea! 🙂 190
Kevin Hector @kevinwhector.bsky.social · 17/11/2024I really appreciated a lot of the connections I got to make over on Twitter. I would love it if I could maintain some of those connections here, and even find some new ones. If nothing else, I promise I will try not to make anyone's day worse. 3260
