If you don't know, don't give up & let some hateful profiteer get in your head!
They'll just feed you misinformation & selfishness.
Put in the work to find the truth.
As easy as Google'ing 'voteyes'

CHI review requests are going out today & I have two asks: (1) reply quickly, even if you need to decline, and (2) if declining, take a moment to think about who might else be a good reviewer and send that information to the requester (just reply to the request email*). As someone who's been an AE for multiple journals, it's really hard to get reviewers these days, so any recommendation helps.

*Note that doing this won't decline the request -- you need to click the decline link to do that.

Really interesting observation about the difference between traditional art galleries - pix on the wall, plinths, cards discussing the work - and museums, especially science museums, with more opportunities for engagement & activity.

Bernardo Pereira from ANU is speaking about using Escape Rooms for teaching. Why is a classroom like an escape room? Students are trapped and dream of escape. I reckon I’d want to go to this class though!
