It's a new academic year - hello to all DEAR Affiliates & welcome to our new Affiliates
Welcome to all DEAR Affiliates and a special hello to all new Affiliates who have recently joined us over the summer months. As the new 2025-26 academic year kicks off, we have been busy planning for our year ahead which includes our month reading group sessions! As Affiliates, you are invited to attend these sessions.
Our first session is taking place on the 6th November with invites already sent out. The curated reading for this meeting is Negotiating the fridge? Women higher education professors in comic booksLink opens in a new window by DEAR Advisory Board member Professor Pauline ReynoldsLink opens in a new window, who is based at the University of Redlands, California, United States. Prof. Reynolds is Professor of Higher Education in the Department of Leadership and Higher Education at Redlands. Her research focuses on representations of higher education in popular culture and she jokes that this means she gets to watch movies and tv shows at work!
The reading group was set up to explore a range of perspectives using a ‘snowballing’ approach — each reading is selected based on themes or ideas that sparked interest in a previous session. You can see what we've read so far at https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/ces/desresearch/dear/readinggroup/
