Today's inductee into the 2024 Enrollify Hall of Fame is Joshua Charles. Josh has become a standout leader in higher education, recognized for his innovative approaches to collaboration, leadership, and breaking down institutional silos.In this highlight reel, Josh shares his top strategies for fostering campus-wide collaboration, building relationships with leadership, and leveraging teamwork to achieve better outcomes. Whether you're navigating cross-campus partnerships or refining internal team processes, Josh's insights provide a roadmap for creating meaningful change in higher education.Check out the full episodes Joshua appeared on: Breaking Silos - Episode 15 Higher Ed Pulse - Bonus Live at HighEdWebKey TakeawaysProactive Partnerships: Reach out to campus stakeholders directly, tailoring communication to their needs to foster collaboration and build trust.Understanding Leadership Priorities: Develop relationships with campus leaders to align your team's work with the institution's strategic goals.Focus on Audience-Centric Strategy: Identify your target audience, refine their journey, and differentiate your offerings by focusing on what you can control.Internal Team Collaboration: Build strong internal processes by fostering open conversations about roles, preferences, and workflows.Breaking Down Silos Across Institutions: Collaborate with peers at other institutions to share resources, align goals, and amplify collective impact.Building Campus Partnerships Josh highlights the importance of reaching out to key stakeholders across campus instead of waiting for collaboration to happen. By understanding how your work affects others and personalizing your communication to resonate with their goals, you can build trust and secure buy-in for future initiatives.For example, Josh emphasizes the need to understand the priorities and communication styles of campus leaders such as associate deans of finance, faculty, or international students. These relationships are critical in aligning team efforts with broader institutional strategies.Focusing on What You Can Control In discussing challenges unique to Rutgers Business School, Josh advocates for focusing on audience-centric strategies to overcome barriers. Rather than dwelling on institutional politics, teams should:Clarify target audiences and map their journeys.Differentiate offerings by tailoring content and campaigns to specific needs.Use collaboration to share resources and learn from peers in similar roles across campus or even at competing institutions.Josh's advice centers on leveraging what is within your control—such as refining messaging or developing resourceful marketing strategies—to achieve impactful results.Internal Collaboration: Building a Strong Team Josh describes an intentional, hands-on approach to fostering collaboration within his team of 10. By organizing sessions focused on specific examples—such as marketing an MBA program—team members gain a clear understanding of each other's roles, workflows, and needs.Key steps include:Open Conversations: Encourage team members to share their communication and workflow preferences.Document Processes: Create shared documents outlining tasks, responsibilities, and dependencies to ensure alignment.Reflect and Improve: Dedicate meeting time to reflect on what's working and identify areas for improvement.These practices build trust and eliminate inefficiencies, ultimately creating a more cohesive team.Breaking Silos Across Institutions Josh also shares the value of connecting with staff at other institutions to foster a culture of collaboration. By understanding the scope of their resources, challenges, and strategies, teams can align efforts and learn from one another. For example, Rutgers Business School staff regularly engage with peers at Rutgers Camden, recognizing that cooperation benefits everyone—students, staff, and the institution at large.Final Thoughts Josh Charles's commitment to fostering collaboration and creating meaningful change is a testament to his leadership in higher education. From breaking silos to strengthening internal processes, his insights inspire higher ed professionals to rethink how they work together to achieve better outcomes. - - - -Connect With Our Co-Hosts:Mallory Willsea https://www.linkedin.com/in/mallorywillsea/https://twitter.com/mallorywillseaSeth Odell https://www.linkedin.com/in/sethodell/https://twitter.com/sethodellAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:The Higher Ed Pulse is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

Early today, we posted a conversation with Celeste Marcus, LIBERTIES Quarterly managing editor, about her hard-hitting “Hate Lands” essay in the Fall 2024 issue. In the same issue, there's an equally hard hitting piece by the Rutgers historian, Katherine C. Epstein. But whereas Marcus goes after Trump and Putin, Epstein's ire is reserved for her fellow American historians who, she believes, are, literally, “killing history”. And Epstein doesn't pull her punches in this conversation either. America, she told me, is the “world's teenager” in terms of (not) making sense of its own historical narrative. Meanwhile, “the donkeys are leading the donkeys” inside American history departments, creating a crisis of this most essential academic craft.Katherine C. Epstein is associate professor of history at Rutgers-Camden.  She is currently working on her second book, which examines government secrecy, defense contracting, intellectual property, and the political economy of power projection.  Her first book, Torpedo: Inventing the Military-Industrial Complex in the United States and Great Britain (Harvard University Press, 2014), examined these issues through the lens of torpedo development before World War I.  In 2018-2019, she held an ACLS Frederick Burkhardt Fellowship and was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.  Her work has appeared in various academic journals and edited collections, as well as in the Wall Street Journal and American Interest.  She teaches courses in US history, military history, diplomatic history, and historical methods.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

On today's episode, we're thrilled to be joined once again by friend-of-the-show Dr. Jim Brown, Jr., Associate Professor of English and Director of the Digital Studies Center at Rutgers-Camden. While Jim is mainly known to us as an expert in digital rhetorical studies, today we speak to him about his experience as outgoing president of the Camden chapter of Rutgers' faculty union, the AAUP-AFT, amid its recent historic labor strike and contract negotiations. The Rutgers faculty strike was a massive success, earning pay increases and structural bargaining changes that will redound not only to the benefit of Rutgers' precarious faculty but also to colleagues at peer institutions–including, perhaps, at your own university, listener!In a wide-ranging conversation, Calvin picks Jim's brain about the general duties of serving as a union chapter president, the events leading up to the April strike (including the university president's threat of a legal injunction), the details of the union's victories, the broader issue of neoliberalism in academic labor, and the challenges of forging solidarity across so many different job categories (e.g. tenure-track faculty, non-tenure track teaching faculty, adjunct faculty, graduate faculty, and graduate researchers–all across many different disciplines). Finally, Jim explains how he applied his rhetorical training to the strike and negotiations, and how the strike and negotiations continue to influence his digital rhetoric research.

Hello fine people of New Jersey!Today on NJITW, Andrea and I are talking to Jim Brown, a professor at Rutgers Camden involved pretty heavily with unionization efforts at our state university. Not sure if you've heard about this, but things aren't going great on this front. In fact, there's a pending strike on the horizon at my (and many of yours') alma mater.Jim walks us through what professors are asking for, how the university can mess with Camden and Newark by creatively presenting the budget, how athletics tie into the big picture at the school financially, and so much more. It's a fascinating conversation and we hope things get settled the right way, without too much duress, and ideally without holdovers from the Christie administration at the wheel. That part's just weird.If you are interested in supporting after hearing this, there is a Rutgers Board of Governors' meeting TOMORROW, the 28th of February. Union actions will be held on all three Rutgers campuses, with a particular focus at the Newark campus, where said meeting is taking place.And here are some links if you'd like to learn more about what's going on:Alumni petition:https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/rutgers-you-need-to-negotiate-fair-union-contracts-2Rutgers AAUP-AFT Twitter:https://twitter.com/ruaaup"Not so fun facts" about the Rutgers Budget (infographics):https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HuBn5RCbWm8TmAKHn8vE4j2BYV4qA_uRUnions say Chris Christie's labor legacy playing out in Rutgers University contract talkshttps://www.politico.com/news/2023/02/01/chris-christie-labor-rutgers-university-contract-00079714  Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Cause that's when this podcast comes out and is actually a Wednesday here as well and I am recording live from New York city is a beautiful day out as finally. It looks like we're about to get to summer. The sun is shining. Birds are singing. People in New York are still assholes, but that's who we are. Anyway. It is great to have you on another episode of Faster Than Normal. I'm thrilled that you joined us as I always am humbled and love the fact that you're here.  We are being joined today by an old friend of mine, a wonderful woman named Jillian Ivey. Jill and I have known each other since God, the early aughts, I guess, as they call them probably around, mid. 2007 ish, 2006 ish, something like that, I don't know. Uh, I've known Jill; she started in PR and then she went on her own, she started writing. Uh, I, when I met her, she was working for Philios, which was a similar site of Gothamist. Um, and she does a a hundred million things I'll let her tell you about, but one of the reasons that I wanted to bring it on the podcast, other than she's a great friend and I love her, is because she went an article a couple of weeks ago on Medium. She's a very popular [does he say contributor on Medium?]. She's a phenomenal writer. And she wrote a piece about the untold financial costs of ADHD. Jillian does have ADHD; she's one of us. And she wrote a really interesting piece that I wanted to talk about because a lot of times we don't think about other things, other than oh Adult Hyperactivity Disorder blah blah, we don't think about the hidden costs of ADHD. And so with that- welcome Jillian!  Hi, Peter. It's so good to be here.  So tell us your backstory before we start, tell us, uh, when were you diagnosed and what was it like as a kid and, you know, the, the usual, the usual drama?  Sure. So I, um, I'll work backward. I was diagnosed when I was 36 years old. I'm 38 now. So this is a pretty, pretty new thing for me. And it was something that my therapist had been suggesting for a long time before she just kind of came out and said, you know, I, I think that this is something that, like you should look into more. I think that you have ADHD. And so she sent me some things and I, I looked into a lot of articles because for me, having, you know, having grown up in the 1990's is when ADHD was the thing that everybody was talking about, with like the hyperactive boy in the class, the boy who couldn't sit still and who was talking a mile a minute and PE was the only class they ever actually enjoyed. And so that wasn't me at all. I was a really good student. I have two degrees. I have a Bachelor's degree from the University of Pennsylvania and a Master's degree from Rutgers Camden, uh, in Creative Writing, both of them. So there, there are degrees that involved a lot of time spent reading. And so I immediately just kind of wrote her off until I started to look into how ADHD is often missed in young girls, because they don't always have that hyperactive sort of behavior. And so if they don't have that behavioral marker that's associated with ADHD, or at least was in the nineties, then it was, it was missed. It was missed really, really frequently. Uh, what I had instead was hyper-focus. And so the things that I, I chose to hyper focus on were reading and writing. I was a really good student because I loved doing those things. And I've learned that as students, if you can find that thing that you're really interested in, that's how you're able to kind of see that hyper-focus work to somebody's advantage. It just happened to be for me that it was that. For some people it might be interested in dinosaurs or it might be an interest in math. I have no, no real aptitude for math at all. And I think part of it was that I started to see the numbers and my brain just shut off. And so I started, I started looking into that and I also started to look into some of the behaviors that are associated with ADHD that they don't talk about in kids very much; things like staying up really late, uh, which I've always, always been a night owl. And one of the things I like about staying up late at night is that it's very quiet. And so I feel like I can get my work done without distraction. Um, my husband is not a huge fan of that behavior. Um, but I recently.. I was talking to my mom about ADHD. And my mother is a grade school teacher. So for her, it really is still about that hyperactive boy in her classroom she sees it's just, oh, Jillian, you don't have ADHD. And I was like, mom, think about how often I was staying up late at night to work when I could have done my work earlier in the day. And you know, some of it I was doing, I was doing theater. I was doing a lot of other extracurricular activities. And sometimes I couldn't start my homework until nine or 10:00 PM, but sometimes I just didn't want to. And my mother is also a night owl. And when I pointed that out to her, the line just went silent.. and she goes, oh, well, you've given me a lot to think about. I'l; t alk to you later. The only time I've ever talked to her about.  You make a really good point though, because I think that, that there's something to be said for people they need to see there's something to be said for silence. You know, there's something to be said for, um, for being able to shut out the rest of the world. Um, for me, that's early mornings and I was a night owl;  growing up college. I mean, I, I was, I don't, I didn't get it. If I didn't have a class, I didn't get out of bed till noon. Right. And then, but I was up to like three, four every, every night. And, um, you know, or in the morning or watching the sun come up and, and it wasn't until my late twenties, when I discovered exercise that I discovered getting up early and now, you know, but the same thing is a few hours. I'll get up at 3:34 AM and get on the bike for a couple hours. Um, you know, and no one's there and it's my time. Right. It's just our time down here, type thing. And so, so that's a wonderful, a wonderful feeling.  Um, so I want, wanna, I want to touch this article because I really was blown away by this. You, you, you, you put into words, everything that I think so many of us think of, but we don't really think about it until it's as need be. So, so you talked about you, you called the article the, I don't remember the actual title, but the subhead was, “another collections agency called today”. [The Very Real, Totally Hidden, Costs of Being an Adult With ADHD Or: Whoops—I got a call from collections again!] Okay. Great. So tell us about the article and then tell us sort of what prompted you to write it. I'm assuming, you know, obviously wrote it from personal experience, so talk a little bit about it. Um, so I, uh, I, I started it actually as a Twitter thread. I, um, to make a long story short, I do go into this in the piece. I used to see a therapist through a company called Thrive Works, um, and Thriveworks is a huge company. They have offices all over the place. They have a bunch of therapists, and I went to see them. I already had my therapist who I love, but I had a very specific issue that I needed to work on. And my therapist said, this is probably something you should go to somebody else for. So for awhile, I had two therapists, um, which was, was really fun. Um, but I needed somebody who took insurance and a friend of mine saw a therapist from Thriveworks, and she said, because they're so big, most of their therapists do take insurance. And so I found somebody who not only was local to Philadelphia because at the time it was pre COVID. And so I wanted to see somebody in person, um, but they took insurance and they had an availability the following week. So over the course of this. I was in distress. There was a lot going on in my life that led me to the point where I needed this therapist. And while I was being onboarded, while I was setting this appointment up, I'm sure they told me that, you know, part of being a member of Thriveworks, you have to pay a monthly fee to be a member. I don't know what the membership fee actually gets you. I still haven't quite figured that out, but whatever. So this would have been February, 2019, where I started, uh, started this process, started seeing this therapist by March of 2021. She had left the practice. And so I, I don't know. I just kinda forgot that I had this monthly fee because I'm not somebody who ever goes and looks at my checking account, which I know I probably, I look at the balance, but I don't look at the individual transactions. Um, and then when I was doing like getting ready to do my taxes at the beginning of this year, I saw that I was still charging, being charged with ThriveRx. And I thought, oh, you know, I must've just been on an annual plan where since she left in March and my, I started seeing her in February, I must just be on the hook for the next year. And in March, I get an email saying your subscription has been canceled. I'm like, great. Not going to worry about it. Uh, checking email is also not a thing I'm particularly great at, and I'm sure that that's a, that's a common behavior that a lot of us have. Um, so what I missed was the email that came up it was in my spam folder saying, oops, sorry, we didn't mean to cancel your account. You're still getting charged. And so when I saw that. Oh, I wasn't actually, uh, like this, wasn't an annual commitment that I'd made. This was a month to month commitment. So I contacted, Thriveworks, and I said, Hey, I'm going to need you to refund everything that I've paid since my therapist left the practice. And they said, oh no, we don't do that. It's on you to end your subscription when your therapist leaves the practice. And I added up what I had been paying since she left. And then I started to add up all of the other things that I have had to pay because I forgotten to cancel something, or because I've missed a deadline and then I've had to pay a late fee. And so it started as a Twitter thread and then I was like 11 tweets in it. Isn't oh, no, probably a out to move this over to a longer form where I can really start to explore it.  It is amazing, right? When you, you sit down and you think so, it's so funny, you, you, you, I feel very seen, heh, based on what you just said. Um, you know, I, I, I have a website, I have several websites that are hosted and. Recently, about a year ago or so I took my two biggest ones and I moved over to a separate host site that monitors them privately. And, um, it's much better, you know, if something goes down, I don't have to worry about it, they fix it. But, you know, I still have a bunch of others that they keep on this, on this other hosting platform. And I just randomly one day got an invoice and I think it was waiting for a flight, so nothing to do. So I clicked on the link and read the.. I was still being charged for the two big websites, even though they haven't been hosting my accounts over a year and you know, you get the notification that says, okay, your website has been officially taken off this platform. I think there's something about the ADHD in us that wants to assume it's going to be handled for us. Right. Because if I have to think about it and then deal with it. That's a whole process. Right. So, so yeah, I was paying like an extra $40 a month for like past year for absolutely nothing. And I can't tell you how many, how many times I've done that. I mean, you know, I think for, for us sites, like, uh, is it Truebill or whatever those are are, are, are godsends, but they're also scary as hell. It was like God, when they go through our, for their first run, this is going to be really depressing.  Yeah. Yeah. You know, I think that it's great that there are platforms like truebill and other services that allow you. I mean, I have, you know, there are, there are planners that are catered to people with ADHD. There are all sorts of reminders that you can set on your phone or your calendar to pop up an alert, like things that pop up once a month to, to remind me, you know, I have a subscription and if I don't want to get billed, I need to make sure that I tell them not to, not to charge me this month. Um, so, so that's all great, but at the same time with technology, there's really no reason that a lot of these companies can't do this stuff themselves. Like when my therapist left the practice. It would have been so easy for Thriveworks to go through their CRM and say, you know, pull all of the people who have seen this therapist in the last year and contact them and say, as you know, this therapist is leaving the practice. Exactly. Exactly. It's not the.. Company's bank on people like us, like on everyone, right, forgetting to do that.  Exactly. “It's not a bug, it's a ‘feature'”!  [fml] There's a great episode of, uh, I think the first episode of a TV show on HBO or Showtime called House of Lies with Don Cheadle, Kristen Bell. Um, they talk about how they're going to, uh, uh, they're going to re revamp a big banks image. Uh, you know, that during the housing crisis, all these people lost their homes and the banks made billions they're going to revamp their image by. Uh, offering lone amnesty and that the CEO was like, absolutely not. And they said, no, you don't understand you, you, your normal DQ, like 90% of the people won't qualify. 8% of screw up in the application. Half a 4% will die. You know, you'll give out a couple hundred grand back, you know, and you accept the award of the year because they it's exactly the case. They don't expect us to follow through. And normally 910 times when we won't.  Yeah, I, um, I have the, I live in, I live in Philadelphia and, uh, the state of Pennsylvania has a website where you can go and see if you have any unclaimed funds. So this is like refunds from a doctor's office, that for whatever reason, they didn't prescribe it to your account. And so I have for, now that you're saying this is probably two or three years, had money sitting, waiting for me with the State of Pennsylvania. And the reason that I have not actually been able to claim it is because it involves printing out a form AND GETTING it NOTARIZED!?! And yes, getting this and then putting it in the Mail. And so I have to go through all of these extra steps and like, that's, I have several things that just don't happen because they have, I have to leave my house. I can't do it online. I have, um, I have some, I overpaid, uh, on medical expenses last year. Like I hit my out-of-pocket max. And so I have to submit forms to the insurance company, which can only be submitted by mail. There is, you can't scan it and send it to somebody. I have a friend who works with this insurance agency in the Social Media department. And I was like, what, what the hell is this? I know, I know it's just, it is the way that they operate. And so there is, there's a lot of money, not only that I've paid, um, because of this, but I think there's actually a lot of money that I'm owed, uh, that I haven't pursued because of this.  So what's the answer. I mean, what do we, you know, obviously I, you know, Hey Siri, remind me of this, or, Hey Siri, do this is, you know, Hey Alexa, do this, that is great. But there has to be, I mean, look, we're not gonna, we're not, the companies are going to certainly not going to do it. Right. So at the end of the day, what's the answer. Well, you say the companies aren't going to do it, but I think we forget how important a role activism is in the disability community and then neurodivergent community. So I think that part of this is going to be calling your Representatives and talking about the unethical practices of the people who are charging these fees, knowing that people who are neurodivergent people who have ADHD, people who have Autism are not able to meet the requirements in order to take advantage of the system. This system is calculated against these populations in the same way that there are systems that are calculated against Women and against People of Color against people in the Queer community. And so the more that we can raise visibility here, the more we can say, no, this is a real issue a nd it affects a lot, a lot of people. And I think since, you know, the DSM has been revised and the way that we see Autism has really expanded in the way that we see ADHD has really been expanded. It affects a lot more people than you realize. And to create that visibility so that the system works for us. I think we shouldn't, we shouldn't forget that we at least for now, live in a society where we have representatives met as part of their job. That's true. And we do have that at least for another few months. Um, but no, I, I think, and I think it's interesting because, you know, I, I keynoted, uh, disability, the first ever disability confrence  for Adobe, and it was a global conference, uh, you know, 10,000 people online, all from all around the world. And the one thing that I got the most feedback on was the fact that. You know, upwards of 15 to 25% of the workforce is going to be neurodivergent in the next 10 to 15 years. That's a massive number! Right. And if you're a company and you're not A. hiring for that, but B. understanding your audience.. you're going to lose. Right. That's very, very true. I wanna be respectful of your time. Give us a couple of hacks that work for you that allow you to, you know, obviously, obviously it's not, uh, not in terms of, uh, paying, paying your therapist bill, but give us other hacks that work for you and tell us what you've learned and the kinds of things that you do to prevent these things from happening.  So to prevent these things specifically. Um, as I said, I have an alert that goes off on my phone the first of every month I have, I'm a yoga teacher when I'm not doing the writing and, and also consulting on, on a content strategy for folks. But, um, I have a subscription to a service called Fabletics it's Kate Hudson's active wear line, and you get invoiced every, uh, I think the fifth of every month, so that you get your monthly credits to get more clothes. I have more yoga clothes than I could possibly need. And so right now I have an alert that comes up on my phone the first of every month. And I see it when I wake up in the morning and before I even get out of bed, I go to Fabletics and I tell it to skip this month. And so I think that those alerts, as long as we see them, as long as they come through at a time where we're likely to see them are really helpful. Now, if the first of the month is on a Saturday or a Sunday, and I'm sleeping in a little bit, it's not necessarily going to be at the top of my phone. So it's not a perfect system. But it does help. Um, I think other things that I've done are, you know, I, uh, I can't always rely on.. my husband is probably undiagnosed ADHD. He's got a lot of the same behaviors that I do. So I can't always rely on him to remind me to do some of these things, but what I can do is put something on our shared calendar that says, you know.. Six o'clock tonight we're going to get this thing. We're going to be making dinner. And it's going to say, talk about whatever this, this bill is that we need to figure out or talk about our taxes. Um, so, so it's really helpful just to have those, those things pop up on our phone. Now, that being said, I know that a lot of folks who are neurodivergent, who have ADHD turn off a lot of those alerts on their phones.  Right?  So one of the other systems that I used to do, I, I now I work all over my house, so this doesn't work as well for me anymore but when I always sat at my desk at the same place at my desk, every day, I put post-it notes on my computer screen of things that I needed to do. It's just around. The edge of the computer screen. And there's, there's something really satisfying about the tactility of- when you finish a task, taking that note off of your screen, tearing it up and throwing it away. Because it's more than just like clicking a box on your computer. There's actually something there that like, yes, I can do this. I can, I can get this done and I can actually feel getting it done, which a lot of us don't have when we work fully digitally. It's funny. My, I used to make fun of my mother when I was growing up,  because she had a black book and in her book were all of her contacts, but she also had a calendar and every year she'd replace it with a new calendar. And she'd write down all these tasks that were do on the day. And she, when she was done, she would spend upwards of 30 seconds crossing it out. And, you know, like, like crossing it out, like, like you're, you're the, uh, woman in Hamlet trying to get the blood out of..  That's Macbeth.. Ah Macbeth! That's what I meant. And I knew if anyone, if anyone would correct me on that'd be you!  But you know, like ripping the page as she crossed it out. And I always asked, Mom, why are you crossing so angrily?! She's like I'm not angry, I just did it! It's done! LOL And I totally get it now!  Um, you know, I, I praise these guys all the time. I have no connection to them other than the fact that they've saved my life many times www.FollowUpThen.com. Um, I I'm sure I've told you about before Jill. Follow up then.com is this free service where you create an account and then you send an email to any time period. I followed them,,,?So 10 minutes had followed them to come four hours about, then it comes Thursday, March 28th, 2023. It followed that and it will simply send it back, whatever you wrote in that email to you. And so, you know, on, uh, for your thing where you have to do your Fabletics. Um, I do the same thing with certain things that have to be paid or have to be looked at, you know, um, January 5th, February 5th, March, I send one email to all 12 months and every, every fifth of the month I get an email, Hey, check your subscription or whatever it is. So yeah, those kinds of things are, are, are game changers for people like us.  Absolutely. Um, I think, I think while the system doesn't work for us, it's up to us to figure out what we're able to do to kind of hack the system. So, so, you know, apps like that, uh, offerings like that, just make it a little bit easier to exist in the world that is not really always made for us. This was awesome. Jill, how can people find you? [http://www.jilletante.com also www.JillianIvey.com and on the @JillianIvey on all the socials except TikTok Twitter  INSTA  Pinterest  and Facebook] Uh, so a couple of ways I'm on social media, all, all platforms, except for tick-tock because I'm old and I still don't understand it, uh, at a, at Jillian, Jillian with a J and IVs IBE, Y um, I'm also, you can find me at Jillianivey.com. Most of my work is archived there so you can find the link to the Medium article that way. And I also, in my consulting work and I am at Jill Aton, like dilettantes. Spelled with two L's and one T because two L's and two T's looked weird. Uh, so Dillatant dot com. And I'm actually about to launch I an offering where I'm doing live story audits with people. So going through their website, kind of helping them to figure out whether there's story works live in the minute I send them a recording. And I find that this actually works really well with my ADHD, because I don't have to remember to do any followup work after I send them the recording. And that is that is it.  That's awesome. I, you know, that's funny. I never, for the life of me knew how to pronounce that until just now, haa! I love it. I love it.  Thank you so much for taking the time to be with us today.

Samuel Tuero is a recent Rutgers-Camden political science graduate and activist with parents that immigrated from the Dominican Republic. After Trump's presidency began, he was inspired to start his political activism. During his time at the university, Samuel founded an immigrant rights student association called “Define American”. He also served as vice president to the student government association and the political science society. As someone whose passion for public service was sparked through hardships faced by his immigrant parents, we discuss many topics with Samuel including how much identity seems to be tied to what language we speak, how difficulties with identity and stereotypes present themselves when you assimilate into American culture as child of immigrants, how the attacks on DACA impacted immigration advocacy, and more.

In order to help you gain a better understanding of the episode we have also created an outline. In this episode we discuss: • Sikhism as a religion and its philosophies. • The experience of being a part Sikh community in the USA. • Language being a barrier for immigrants. • Youth's optimism towards a better future of the nation.

Do all women struggle with body image? Is Jayne Feld the only one who grew up with a role model that was a pig? Should Elyse Notarianni get a nose job? We're talking about how we look and how we feel about it. Plus, Rutgers–Camden psychology professor, Charlotte Markey, Ph.D., talks with us about her new body image book and her handy acronym to help kids (and parents) handle social media.

Happy Wednesday! This week, we get to hear from Tom Dahan from Rutgers University - Camden about his research on the community effects of service-learning, how his position as a Campus Compact VISTA helped him broaden his definition of civic engagement, and what service-learning and community engagement looks like at Rutgers-Camden. This episode is 20 minutes filled to the brim with insight on the fields of service-learning and experiential education!

In this episode, Dr. Nick Kapur (Rutgers-Camden) places recent BLM marches into the context of Japan’s longer history of street protests and civil disobedience, highlighting the violent protests opposing the resigning of the controversial US-Japan Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security, or Anpo Treaty, in 1960.

This week I talk with Michelle Lyttle Storrod, PhD candidate at Rutgers-Camden, about her research on juvenile delinquency, social media and phones. You can follow Michelle on Twitter @LyttleStorrod As always, you can follow the show at @UntenuredTracks

And this week we're focusing on leaning on each other and putting the work into relationships. First up, Jacob discusses Too Hot to Handle on Netflix and the show's ability to show us how putting effort into your relationship can payout in improving it! Next, our Academic Deep Dive discusses research on getting support from family out of Rutgers Camden by Dr. Joan Mazelis and colleagues, published in @ncfr_org's Journal of Marriage and Family. The researchers study how low-income new parents activate, or avoid, assistance from family, and we talk about the need to help out new parents may extend well past the birth of a first child. Last up, we discuss Reader's Digest advice on how to become BFFs with your siblings! Should you focus on the positive? Fall back into childhood roles? We've rated it all.Article: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/jomf.12680Advice: https://www.rd.com/advice/relationships/adult-siblings/

Beyond the Mill Season 2 Episode 1 Guests: Jason Hernandez, Esq. & Trisha Trinidad Summary: In this episode, I interview Rutgers Director of the Rutgers Immigrant Community Assistance Project and Rutgers-Camden student and LASO president, Trisha Trinidad as we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month and talk about issues surrounding immigration.   , Esq.

Let’s start by celebrating our democratic editorial policy by seeing which of the many titles we came up we should use! “Bag O’Wigs,” “Just the Tip,” or “I Find it Aching (Oh, Yeah)?  This week’s podcast consisted of three of our “well-hydrated” original members, the OGs, Kathleen, Marion and Jason, along with the co-op, Britt. At the center of our table were poems by Sarah Browning, who allowed us to dissect her poems like a turkey (see below) on Thanksgiving.  The first poem up for discussion was “For the turkey buzzards,” which Marion described as “ghasty but beautiful” (both the buzzards themselves and the images in the poem). We’ve provided you with an image so will understand why Britt would never want to be reincarnated into one. This poem possessed metaphors that had our crew members meeting at a crossroads. Be sure to listen in to find out our destination (aha-see what I did there?).  We skipped the main course and jumped right to desert as we discussed the poem “Desire.” Let’s just say Kathleen was a little too excited to volunteer to read this one! This brought back childhood memories for Britt, as it reminded her of evocative songs like Candy Shop by 50 Cent and Ego by Beyoncé. It even had us playing the roles of relationship counselors as we tried to get into the head of the woman going through such terrible heartbreak.  Lastly, we deliberated “After I Knew,” a soap-opera-like piece that will certainly get you in the feels, if you were not in it already.  Just when we thought things could not get anymore steamier, Kathleen brought up a dream by Bryan Dickey’s (a family friend of PBQ) partner, but that is one you must listen in to learn more about. We are so excited for you guys to tell us your interpretations of this scandalous dream. Furthermore, should this dream be turned into a poem or has enough been said?  Is purse slang for the vagine? Could Marion’s cat sitter be no ordinary cat sitter, but…a spy?  Okay, okay! You have read enough here; go listen.    We are SO SAD we have bruises from beating our breasts, but “Desire” was snapped up by Gargoyle before we got to Sarah!!! We’ll put the hyperlink here when it goes up, but until then, check Gargolye out anyway.  We are SO HAPPY that Sarah agreed to our edit of “Turkey Buzzards” that the neighbors complained about our dancing (to “Candy Shop” and “Ego,” of course.  Until next time, Slushies!       Sarah Browning stepped down as Executive Director of Split This Rock in January 2019, after co-founding and running the poetry and social justice organization for 11 years. She misses the community but not the grant reports… Since then she’s been vagabonding about the country, drinking IPAs in Oregon, sparkling white wine in California, and bourbon in Georgia. She’s also been privileged to write at three residencies, Mesa Refuge, the Lillian E. Smith Center (where she won the Writer-in-Service Award), and Yaddo. She is the author of Killing Summer (Sibling Rivalry Press, 2017) and Whiskey in the Garden of Eden (The Word Works, 2007) and has been guest editor or co-editor of Beltway Poetry Quarterly, The Delaware Poetry Review, and three issues of POETRY. This fall she begins the MFA program in poetry and creative non-fiction at Rutgers Camden.       For the turkey buzzards   who rise ungainly from the fields,             red heads almost unbearable   to regard, crooked and gelatinous,              how they circle their obsession   on the scent of the winds, always             circling back, returning to settle   on that one dead thing that satisfies,              the past to be pecked and pondered –   forsaken fare for others, but for              the scavenger the favored meal –   like us, the poets, who eat at the table             of forgetfulness, ask the dead   to nourish us, beg forgiveness             as we circle and swoop, descend,   fold our wings, bend to the maggoty flesh,            gorge on the spoiled, glistening feast       Desire   I took your large hand and raised it. Just this, I said, the tip of a finger or two –   just to the nail or so – into my mouth, which had dreamed of just that. You made a sound   I hoped was a gasp and I wanted – as I had for 30 years – to do it: open my   mouth and take your two large fingers all the way inside my throat, the size of them   filling me. But I stopped, in shame and desire – I blush writing – because you said we would   say goodbye inside my rental car outside your hotel: Even now, days later, miles apart,   I am hungry for such thick and full.       After I Knew   I drove alone through the farmland of central New York – the open vistas and steep drops – towns with names like Lyle unexplored, their secrets hoarded, as I was hoarding my own secret then. I-88 was empty as always and I followed its long high valley, driving away from you. We had not yelled or broken mere things. I did not cry. I drove fast, but not recklessly.   I stopped for a nap before Albany, a middle-aged woman sleeping alone in an aging Geo Prism. For a few more miles I hoped I could just drive away.      

Hey guys! I decided to drop this week's episode a day early because I'll be out of town for the weekend, but I was honored to have a great discussion about community development in the city with one of its resident experts - Councilman Ted Johnson. Ted and I have been extremely close since I first moved to Woodbury and started getting involved in local politics almost ten years ago. We graduated high school a year apart, earned our masters degrees from the same Rutgers-Camden program and now we're classmates pursuing the same PhD in public affairs. Ted's brought a lot of youth and intrigue to local government over the last few years and discusses Millennial representation as key to a bright future in our public lives. Please make sure you follow along with all of our content on Instagram @woodburyvoice and keep listening every week for new episodes. If you'd like to contribute to the podcast as a guest, co-host, or just for more information about what's going on in the city please reach out to woodburyvoice@gmail.com Have a great weekend - talk soon!

Welcome to Episode 32 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball. This episode focuses on the super-duper loaded Mid-Atlantic region, and covers the numerous teams that we see as legitimate contenders in each conference. We begin (at 2:10) with the newly-formed Atlantic East Conference, which is a new collection of teams, most of which have left the CSAC. We suggest Gwynedd Mercy as the slight favorites but it really could be any team's conference to win. We then move to the Centennial Conference (at 4:43), which featured one of the stories of the 2018 season in the Swarthmore Garnet, who return a huge portion of their supremely talented World Series team and have officially overtaken Johns Hopkins as the class of the conference, though the Blue Jays should still be very much in the mix. Next (at 11:29), we briefly touch on the Landmark Conference and why the Catholic Cardinals still seem like the team to beat. We then head (at 13:40) to one of our two MAC conferences, the MAC Freedom conference, where Misericordia returns a shocking amount of their 2018 World Series team, and we explain why we love watching the Cougars so much. Then (at 18:34) we discuss the ever-confusing two-horse race between Arcadia and Alvernia in the MAC Commonwealth, and why the Knights may have one of the best lineups in the region. We move forward with the NEAC (at 23:20), where Toby Welk will probably continue to do Toby Welk things #WelkWatch. Then (at 27:10), it's NJAC time, headed by the spectacularly loaded Rowan Profs, who look so absurdly good that they somehow overshadow three teams that would look like easy favorites in almost any other conference (Rutgers-Camden, TCNJ and Ramapo). Finally (at 41:30), we touch on the Keystone Giants, who appear to be new members of Pool B, but still look every bit as loaded as usual. We conclude (at 46:17) by shouting out some other notable players and then picking our players and pitchers of the year, and our teams to beat.  Click here to see our 2019 Preseason All-American teams.  Follow us on Twitter @d3baseballpod (DMs are open if you want to reach us there) and @CespedesBBQ.  Send us your best D-III stories or any other comments or questions to thed3baseballpodcast@gmail.com Subscribe + rate/review on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-podcast-about-division-iii-baseball/id1342691759 

This week we sit in on a presentation on the recent “Share the Journey” pilgrimage, offered through Catholic Charities, Diocese of Camden, with student pilgrims from Rowan University's Catholic Campus Ministry. Earlier this year, 14 missionary disciples- including college students from Rowan, Stockton University, and Rutgers-Camden traveled to a humanitarian respite center in McAllen, Texas, meeting and providing aid to migrants along the U.S,/Mexico border. You will hear these young people share their powerful experiences living out the Gospel, and going to the margins of society.

In this episode, Dr. Nick Kapur resituates the 100th anniversary of the Meiji Restoration into the global revolution of 1968, retracing government designs for the ceremony and outlining the opposition of academic historians.  We discuss the context of public protest in postwar Japan, popular reactions to shifting geopolitics, and the actions and motivations of student protestors before comparing the making and meaning of the 100th anniversary to the 150th.
