S2E4: Radical Reimagining and Moving Forward

In this episode, we debrief after a conversation we had with a senior scholar in our field, radically reimagining what the future of our field (and our ✨lives✨) might look like in the future! The big overarching question was, "what can the Society for Music Theory do to make it a better place for women and queer folks?" We also celebrate Kaitlyn's big announcement (you'll have to listen to find out what it is! 🥳) and talk through Kaitlyn's corresponding quarter-life crisis. Moral of the story: she's not a bad feminist! 💅This is a long, thoughtful, and vulnerable episode - thanks for going on this journey with us! We promise we'll talk about part-writing next time!Don't forget to drop by our office hours to send us questions, comments, or ideas for future episodes!We cite this article about gender and college classroom participation, and this article about SMT's demographics.This episode features clips from Billie Eilish's "bad guy," performed by the Vitamin String Quartet; "Fast" by Demi Lovato;" and "I Want it All" from High School Musical 3!  🎤
