The school I will be working at is a low-ranked R1 university.
Some people said, "just enjoy and have fun right now. It would be the last time you would ever have such enough free time".
But others said, "You should do research as much as you can before the school starts because you would not have enough time to do research for the first year because you would be busy with teaching for the first time as an instructor. You should start thinking about writing grant proposals or turning your dissertation into peer-reviewed publications."
Both seem to sound right to me, but are actually very opposite suggestions.
What did you do before you started your tenure-track assistant professor job and after you graduated your PhD? What do you recommend me to do for this summer?
