Thinking Blogger

The Blog that Ate Manhattan nominated me for a Thinking Blogger Award. (There's a graphic thingy there, and rules too) Thanks, TBTAM!

The idea is that I now get to point to five other blogs that make me think. I'm trying to choose people I haven't noticed being already nominated, but I may have missed something or forgotten.

Dr Virago over at Quod She. First, it's rare that the title of a blog says so very much in two short words. Dr. V teaches me a lot about teaching, and generously shares ideas.

Terminal Degree plays the kazoo, teaches music, and writes a great blog. I love reading about her teaching experiences, especially this past year, her first at a new school.

A Ianqui in the Villiage, yet another academic who makes me think, often about environmental issues and the good life.

Heo Cwaeth writes a feminist blog about graduate school and beyond. My only complaint is that she doesn't post as often as I'd like. But then, she's a busy woman! And a medievalist.

New Kid on the Hallway has been going through some changes, and she always makes me think. What is it with all these medievalist types?
