This administration and Project 2025’s assault on education is insane.
I work for a University, not doing any research stuff and we are so heavily affected.
I don’t have advice. From my friends who have made career changes later in life - they heavily invested in themselves and took risks.
If you want a job away from the politics, a museum probably isn’t the best place either. And I’ve heard it’s near impossible to get the rare opening unless you are well connected in that community.
I don’t say that to bring negativity, if it’s a risk that’s worth it to you, then jump towards it.
Absolutely crazy. It’s bananas. Normally not a thing happens between thanksgiving and new year.
