They are, frankly, a waste of taxpayers\u2019 money.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Later, when I returned to academia as editor for the University of Copenhagen\u2019s University Post, I was struck by how much of the university\u2019s intellectual life and energy was cooped up in small academic silos.\u00a0 Many university departments and subjects made no concerted effort to attract an outside following for lectures. The underlying assumption was that lectures, even with esteemed invited international scholars and public intellectuals, are too technical and complicated for other subject areas to understand, never mind a lay public. Keeping it all in-house helps demarcate the department\u2019s academic and social identity, and ensures that you know exactly how many people (five!) are coming to the lecture, so the organiser knows exactly how many packets of cookies to buy for the snack table.<\/p>\n<p>But these academic silos not only go against Humboldt\u2019s ideal model of what a university should be, they undersell the value of invited speakers and lecturers. They are, frankly, a waste of taxpayers\u2019 money.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Luckily, the guerrilla culture of sitting in on other fields\u2019 lectures still exists among students and researchers. My ambition was that the @MkeYoungAcademy Twitter account would harbour and foster it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Later, when I started tweeting about upcoming events at Danish universities, I realised I was also pushing for a culture change. Students, PhD students and more senior scientists need an overview of the full programme of lectures, conferences and events. I felt that the students and scientists should \u2018shop\u2019 between academic specialties, at least in their choice of lectures and events. This is what makes the university system great.<\/p>\n<p><em>Here below is a typical tweet from my account. To ensure people can scroll and skim the events, I try to keep my own tweets in almost the same format with lecture first, then date, then organiser, then tags. Creative? Not really. But effective:<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">&#8216;Early Modern Notions of Privacy and the Private&#8217;- conference will be 2 &#8211; 4 June and is organised by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/privacy_ku?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@privacy_ku<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GrundforskFond?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@GrundforskFond<\/a> .

I will not name names, but I <em>do <\/em>wonder why. A university-wide calendar is technically easy to implement. It adds value to the departments or centres that organise the events, to the invited speakers, and to the participating academics in related fields. And it serves as an outreach to a lay public.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, the guerrilla culture of sitting in on other fields\u2019 lectures still exists among students and researchers. And when I started up on my own in 2016 my ambition was that the @MkeYoungAcademy Twitter account would harbour and foster it.<\/p>\n<p>Then the corona pandemic put a stop to physical lectures, seminars and conferences throughout the globe. But this guerrilla culture has, if anything, been reinforced. \u2018Fifth columnists\u2019 from other fields and universities can now easily take part on Zoom lectures in specialty fields throughout the globe. All they have to do is register and get the link.<\/p>\n<p>As to how many students and scientists actually do shop around for interesting lectures in related fields on the other side of the world during the corona pandemic, is, as far as I know, an open question, and I am looking forward to the studies that document it. But the culture should, if anything, have been reinforced.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I run this account as a hobby, for no reason except that I enjoy it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>My hypothesis is that while the total amount of university lectures, seminars and conferences dropped sharply during the pandemic, the greater potential reach of those that <em>are <\/em>organized as online webinars ensures that there is a wider, more geographically dispersed, and diverse range of participants.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-4340\" src=\"http:\/\/mikeyoungacademy.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Twitterprofile-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mikeyoungacademy.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Twitterprofile-1.png 1046w, https:\/\/mikeyoungacademy.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Twitterprofile-1-300x223.png 300w, https:\/\/mikeyoungacademy.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Twitterprofile-1-1030x766.png 1030w, https:\/\/mikeyoungacademy.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Twitterprofile-1-768x571.png 768w, https:\/\/mikeyoungacademy.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Twitterprofile-1-705x524.png 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>I run this account as a hobby, for no reason except that I enjoy it.

This includes various feeds and monitoring tools that suggest events that I can tweet and retweet. I also schedule tweets on Tweetdeck so that I can concentrate on my other work.<\/p>\n<p>As from August 2021 the account will extend its range, move beyond Denmark, and tweet about interesting lectures, webinars and conferences throughout the Nordic region.
