This week on AcaDames, it’s Sarah’s time for a little self-disclosure. Sarah tells the story behind her unconventional decision to start her academic career as a half-time assistant professor, and talks about everything from being homegrown, to withdrawing from a job search, to what it’s like to have kids in grad school. Recorded: April 2, 2018.
