Had a blast at the @sociologicalsci.bsky.social
conference at @stanfordsoc.bsky.social last week, which allowed me to both gaze at Rodins & argue that sociologists should try to run our departments as if we believe scholarship on how to have equitable organizations.
Congratulations Aaron! I remember very clearly the Zoom call in which he said: "So, I think soil quality can be used as an instrument for housing development..."
Yep. Shout out to Sheldon Danziger and Yu Xie, who read more drafts of my dissertation chapters than I care to remember.
My only rule is that, if I'm not the chair, I'll read once for every time your chair has already read it.
Bat signal going up for @shayobrien.bsky.social!
Could not be more proud to work at @umisr.bsky.social, whose motto is "social science in the public interest."
New social media takeover alert! Tomorrow, our own @umichstonecid.bsky.social postdoc @zhenghaowen.bsky.social will be sharing her experiences at #PAA2026 on Friday and Saturday.🥳 Learn about Haowen and her work at: haowenzhg.github.io
California’s Prop 13 caps property value assessments for current homeowners - these values reset when a house is sold. @joelabriola.bsky.social, @robertmanduca.bsky.social & Pablo Mitnik find older homeowners can save more than $3000 p/year in taxes over younger owners. @umichstonecid.bsky.social

The Stone Center at MIT is hiring another postdoc! This is a GREAT job: the work is interesting and creative, and you’ll have time for your own research, too. I think a sociologist or historian working on technology/inequality (broadly defined) would be an especially good fit!!
Demographers: Find your people at #PAA2026! Get connected with our ISR starter packs for some of the best in social science.
