Mama, PhD Reading in Berkeley

By Caroline Grant

Mama, PhD Reading at University Press Books
2430 Bancroft Way, Berkeley
Thursday, November 13th, 6 PM

“All those sleepless nights and dirty diapers and baby food in your hair — where’s the discursive construction of motherhood when you need it?”
–Catherine Newman

Higher Education could be an enormously family-friendly environment, a model for other workplaces, but the academy is failing, and women are leaving. Join contributors to Mama, PhD — Caroline Grant, Lisa Harper, Jennifer Eyre White and Irena Smith — in a reading and conversation about the challenges and joys of trying to reconcile body and brain as they navigate academic careers.
