| Long abstract | I was walking down Spadina Avenue in Toronto, admir- ing the bright storefronts of Chinatown’s restaurants and retailers, when I noticed a T-shirt that proclaimed, “I was born intelligent but education ruined me.” This slogan will be no doubt be read differently by another beholder, but on my end, it made me pause and think about the reflections colleagues like Kaitlin and Suzanne have been fostering on how we read and write. Education certainly didn’t ruin me — this is what I’ll attempt to convey here. Nevertheless, I could relate to the sense of loss, of before and after “education ruined me,” which Kaitlin described in her original blog post as she realized that, out of mental saturation caused by the PhD, she couldn’t bring herself to read the latest tome of a beloved series she’d been eagerly awaiting for. |
