It has been a while since my last blog post! A lot has changed since then. I'm no longer a professor at montana state university. While I made some very good friends there and Bozeman is an amazing spot to live, no love lost for that institution! I was fortunate to receive a prestigious fellowship from the American Association for the Advancement of Science as a Science & Technology Policy Fellow and the family and I moved to D.C. in August. See the picture below for my new look for my new position -- no more jeans and a t-shirt for me! We are here for a year before heading to the University of Arizona -- from extreme cold in Bozeman to extreme heat in Tucson. The universities couldn't be anymore different, with Arizona having not only a competent administration, but one that actually helps their faculty succeed! Jia will be a professor in the School of Natural Resources and the Environment. I'm still figuring out my exact role there, but plan to work on global higher education issues.
