Quotes from the episode





I think there is a culture of “I’m going hard for 9 months with very little boundaries and then I am off for the summer.”

-Rob Parke



Setting boundaries in my syllabus is me setting up expectations for work-life balance.

-Michael Boyce



I think a lot of push on student-centered teaching almost encourages bad boundaries.

-Michael Boyce



Many of us in our institutions don’t deal with grief well.

-Rob Parke
