SUMMARY:PhD+ Workshop - VOCES Drafting Stages with Carlos Decena
DESCRIPTION:Drafting Stages is a series of intimate conversations with speakers working inside and outside of academia and at different points in their careers about writing as an evolving and non-linear process. Focusing on conditions\, inspirations\, and methods\, each speaker will offer personal insight into their processes and the messiness and vulnerabilities of drafting stages. \nThe invited speaker for this session is Carlos Ulises Decena\, an interdisciplinary scholar\, whose work straddles the humanities and social sciences and whose intellectual projects engage and blur the boundaries among critical ethnic\, queer\, and feminist studies and social justice. His first book\, Tacit Subjects: Belonging and Same-Sex Desire among Dominican Immigrant Men\, was published by Duke University Press in 2011. His second book\, Circuits of the Sacred: A Faggotology in the Black Latinx Caribbean will be published in Spring 2023 by Duke University Press. \n \nThe conversation will be facilitated by Dr. Gina Athena Ulysse\, Professor in the Feminist Studies Department at UCSC. This event is presented by GANAS Graduate Pathways and VOCES and is co-sponsored by The Humanities Institute. \n  \nAbout the PhD+ Workshop Series \nJoin us for the seventh year of PhD+ Workshops\, hosted by The Humanities Institute. We meet monthly to discuss possible career paths for PhDs\, internship possibilities\, grant/fellowships\, work/life balance\, elements of style\, online identity issues\, and much\, much more.

SUMMARY:PhD+ Workshop - Going Public: A Workshop on Public Writing for Academics
DESCRIPTION:There’s no such thing as the Ivory Tower. Colleges and universities are not isolated enclaves\, and they probably never were. Public engagement is an essential part of the core mission of higher education. \nBut how do we reach the public? This age of constant media babble and a vast explosion of online and print publications have transformed the traditional pathways of publication\, prestige\, and engagement. Academics – experts in so many things – need to be part of the conversation. In fact\, the variety of media voices has only made expertise and authority more important. \nIn this workshop\, journalist and historian David M. Perry will lead you through the process of getting your voice into the public sphere. He will cover pragmatic topics: the art of the pitch\, finding the right venue\, managing social media profiles\, getting paid\, making it count for tenure and promotion\, and protecting yourself from trolls and harassment. He will also talk about strategies to simultaneously maintain academic authority and be accessible to the broader public. \nThrough it all\, you’ll be working on your pitches\, reading essays that embody important traits\, and developing your own ideas. \nOver the last five years\, David – once a mild-mannered medievalist – has become a columnist for Pacific Standard Magazine\, with hundreds of published pieces at venues all over the world\, including the New York Times\, the Guardian\, and the Chronicle of Higher Education. Along the way\, he’s learned a lot about how to take academic expertise and share it with a much broader audience. \nGoing public isn’t easy\, but neither is getting into graduate school\, getting a PhD\, or finding an academic job\, so you’ve already traveled some pretty difficult paths. This workshop will start you on your way towards the next challenge. \nPlease come to the workshop with an idea for an essay that you might like to write. Essays could be about your scholarly expertise\, personal experience\, or anything else that interests you. We will mostly focus on traditional “op-ed” essays as a structure\, but will also discuss blogging (iterative essay writing on a site under your control)\, reported pieces\, and narrative/creative non-fiction (memoir\, experimental prose\, features\, etc.). Complimentary lunch provided to attendees. \nPlease RSVP using your UCSC email address: \nLoading… \nAbout the PhD+ Workshop Series \nJoin us for the seventh year of PhD+ Workshops\, hosted by The Humanities Institute.
