Connected Conversations is an ongoing series that features language and literature PhDs who work in and outside the academy talking about how graduate education can better support career diversity.
In the second installment of Connected Conversations, Rona Sheramy discusses the skills and qualities that make it possible for humanities PhDs to thrive outside the academy; the importance of having smart, curious, critical thinkers in all areas of society; and loving the work that she does as the executive director of the Association for Jewish Studies.
