In the last 7 days, I have submitted 2 papers with my graduate students (1 revision, 1 new work) and 1 new paper with myself as first author.
This week, one more new paper will be submitted with a graduate student, and I'm halfway done with another first-author paper. Busy times! #FacultyLife

Folks, it's 2025.
If you're setting up a meeting(s) and not sending an Outlook/Google Calendar/iCal invite to the attendees, then is it really a meeting? Or, can we get this done over email?
If it isn't on my calendar, I won't be there. Sorry. #FacultyLife
