This is why it is imperative that professors are honest and realistic to incoming and current PhD students and not assume or imply that they will face a similar job market as they did or suggest/tell them that only an academic (R1) career is worth their time!
Political Science's academic job market having its worst post-Covid year -- almost 20% fewer jobs than at the same point in the previous cycle (which itself was bad!) Data scraped from APSA ejobs pdfs.

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

As a former assistant at the IR Chair (1993-1998) and Managing Director of the Institute (1998-2002) I kindly ask you to sign
The University of Cologne plans drastic cuts to its Political Science department, potentially abolishing the MSc in Political Science and eliminating the professorships in IR and Comparative Politics. This would severely weaken the social sciences at @unicologne.bsky.social. Petition (de/en) ⤵️

From SIX years ago… insane that so many on the “center left” still don’t get the point. There is now so much solid empirical research available too.

Bei extremer Hitze forschen, lehren, studieren …? Viele dt. Hochschulen haben bislang keinen Plan, der heiße Tage erträglicher macht. Spoiler: „Viel trinken, morgens lüften, luftige Kleidung“ ist noch kein taugliches Hitzekonzept! Dabei ließe sich mehr tun. Konkrete Vorschläge in #ArbeitInDerWiss!

Wer auch immer es hören muss: das ist nicht das normale Vorgehen eines Staats am Höhepunkt seiner Demokratie. Geheimpolizei, die Leute von der Straße schnappt, in Autos packt und dann unbekannterweise verschleppt, so dass nichtmal die Anwält_innen Kontakt herstellen können.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying. They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks. From WCVB: youtu.be/PuFIs7OkzYY

Thread über die Auslöschung der vielfältigen Geschichte der USA zugunsten eines rassistischen, frauen- und queerfeindlichen Narrativs. Niemand sollte die Tragweite dessen unterschätzen.
New, from me: Trump is whitewashing American history, removing not just people, but also the stories, images, and values to anyone who does not conform to his impoverished vision of America. Here is a partial inventory. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whitewashi...
