With the cuts to programs at state universities and community colleges, doctoral programs will become even more socio-economically homogenous. I was the only student in my PhD cohort from a state school. I remember the chuckles I received when I would tell folks I graduated from Boise State.

Started writing again (where is the time, wherever has the time gone). I start. Can never really answer if I am in need of these narratives, if these narratives are in need of me, if I need to share these narratives, or if others may have some need for them. Then I stop. Forget. and start again.
