Last weekend I had a fantastic time at the SAA meeting in St. Louis. It’s taken me a while to collect my thoughts (also: dissertation) but I’m ready to start spilling. For this first post on the topic, let’s talk about talks. The actual conference was a extremely positive experience…. Read more“SAA, Part 1”

It’s Business Time
I’m making last minute preparations to go to the annual SAA meeting. This time it’s at convenient St. Louis. A friend had some good advice: business cards!
