In today's episode of Dear Grad Student, Elana chats with Dr. Apryl Alexander to discuss progress made (or not) since the 2020 'Summer of Racial Reckoning' following the murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and countless others by police. What does it look like to reflect on our privilege, speak about that privilege to uplift others, and bring the safety and well-being of minoritized groups to the forefront of practice? Institutions have shown where and how they “care” about the well-being of marginalized students, staff, and faculty.

In this ~special~ episode of Dear Grad Student, Elana speaks with her DGS team members, Aubrey Tingler and William Ota, about the University of California strike, the conditions which drive grad students to strike, & their views on the topic.
If you’re a grad student, you've probably been told you're a student when it comes to pay and benefits, & an employee when you try to access student services. This means graduate students are vulnerable to exploitation by universities. On top of the emotional and financial costs of pursuing graduate education, working conditions have not kept up with inflation, rising class sizes, or cost of living, which makes it hard to survive for anyone, let alone the many marginalized groups in academia. In California, this resulted in three unions represented graduate student educators (TAs), graduate student researchers (GSRs), and post-docs in the University of California system to go on strike. Listen for the DGS team talk to learn more.

They discuss Caroline's research in the flying bugs taking over the world and killing trees, what it's really like to plan for a (SAFE) field season (No, Elana, it's not like Lord of the Rings), self care while in the field and at home, advice for students thinking about a career in field research, and representation (or lack thereof) of BIPOC researchers in nature sciences. Plus, Caroline confirms & validates Elana's fear of bugs and Elana learns that she can be fearful of something and still be interested in them (at least research-wise!)

In this prequel episode of Dear Grad Student, Elana sits alone in her office and talks to herself (see, this is why the podcast will always feature guests). Most of the rambling includes introducing who she is and what the heck she's doing here. She also presents the set up for the podcast: Day in the Life episodes, Conversations about Diverse Identities and Racism in Academia, and themed episodes (like, Mental Health in Grad School or Resources for Efficiency). This episode also includes encouragement, like reminding listeners that no one is alone through this long (and sometimes painful) journey, and promises, like that no one will ever have to listen to Elana talk to her for 7 straight minutes ever again.
