Brian Croxall replied to the topic Should the term "Alt-Academic" be changed in the light of new cultural shifts? in the discussion
Alt-Academics on MLA Commons 8 years, 11 months agoThat’s an interesting idea, Samara, and one that frankly hadn’t occurred to me. I think it’s important to recognize that the term “alt-ac” came about serendipitously and stuck in part because it filled a need that hadn’t been visible until the term was coined by Jason Rhody. Bethany Nowviskie wrote a short piece a few years ago that traced the…[Read more]

Brian Croxall replied to the topic Recent talk on #altac and #postac in the discussion
Connected Academics on MLA Commons 10 years, 5 months agoIn practice, Stacy, no one asked for permission to get outside jobs, and almost everyone did it at one point or another throughout grad school. That said, it’s insulting in so many different ways to think that they would attempt to police this.

Brian Croxall replied to the topic Recent talk on #altac and #postac in the discussion
Connected Academics on MLA Commons 10 years, 6 months agoThanks, Nicky. I think the de-stigmatizing is a hard thing to do for all sorts of reasons. But the more we can talk about it out loud, the more progress we make. And I think it also helps to talk about how it felt. I was a bit more pathetic (read, pathos) in the presentation in certain parts than I published on the blog.
