Thinking a lot about this article today after three relatively junior women, including me, resigned from my department—two of us deciding to leave academia entirely—in a little over a month.

I am so sorry that was your experience and is for so many others. Academia must do better.

Academia is becoming increasingly toxic and hostile toward all marginalized peoples.

I remember packing up the samples collected by one of three AAAS fellows at my university after a junior prof got the tenure position that should have been hers. We had to sneak her samples out of the labs for her to take to her new job. I'm still shaking my head 60 YEARS LATER! GODDAMN NO CHANGE!
