Everyone, I am NOT teaching this semester, and while I am behind on writing commitments thanks to a very long period of eczema-psoriasis-dermatitis, I am now more available, so if anybody needs a guest lecture on transnational environmental activism, bottled water, global waste, global water or qualitative research methods, I am happy to free my time up for up to 5 talks within the next 2-4 months.
I love Stacy’s model, and my recent work on the ethics of bottled water and infrastructure denial (2019, 2020) could potentially work well. Last semester I Skype’d in to Geoff Dabelko’s class where they read the 2020 reprint of my 2015 Review of Policy Research piece on transnational environmental activism, so happy to do something similar. Sending you all much love and solidarity, and remember – if your productivity gets down, IT’S OK. You’re trying to survive a pandemic.

I ask someone in our community to skype or Zoom in for only about 20-30 minutes to take questions from students about a book/article authored by them, that we are reading and discussing in class. It usually produces great questions and discussions about things “behind the scenes” or academic work – things that would never appear in the written version or that I would never be able to know about the work I’ve assigned. Usually I let the students ask all of the questions. But occasionally to mix it up, I “actors studio” a colleague with questions about why, how, difficult choices they had to make, and so on.

Perhaps those of us who are currently teaching could consider putting together some sort of a cooperative though? For example, I'm currently teaching my environmental sociology class to advanced undergrads and some graduate students. I've got online classes coming up when we resume on: climate change, environmental attitudes and behaviors, post materialism, the environmental movement, environmental justice, food and waste, and environmental stewardship. If anyone on the list wanted to discuss a swap on one of these topics for something that I am an expert in and frequently give talks about (such as environmental activism, environmental stewardship, environmental protest, climate politics and echo chambers), I'd be happy to see if we can make something work...

So, check your speaker budgets and consider being generous. The usual couple hundred bucks doesn't even begin to cover the time a good speaker spends to prepare a good talk or even just the time they spend coming to your class. So, one more layer of attitude and institutional shift here: compensate people adequately for their time. Do not assume they can afford volunteer time right now. And consider inviting people who are losing work and income right now due to COVID19 and offer them a decent stipend to help them out. That way, you getting help actually helps, not burdens, someone else too. Best to all and stay sane and healthy, Susi Sent from tiny phone.

We could each “trade” guest lectures on our well-known subjects (the lectures we can give in our sleep), reducing workload of developing lectures for us while giving our students better content. I am not offering to coordinate this – just a suggestion in case anyone thinks it’s a good idea.
