When Knowledge is Free, What are Professors For?
Higher Education Must Stop Competing with AI on Information and Start Teaching What Machines Can’t Do
Wow. Just wow.
"Students pay premium prices for information that AI now delivers instantly and for free. A business student can ask ChatGPT to explain supply chain optimization or generate market analysis in seconds. The traditional lecture-and-test model faces its Blockbuster moment."

Immunofluorescence Staining of E17.5 Ai6 x Eomes-Cre Placentae for Mesenchymal Cells. EomesPOS cells and daughters (ZsGreen; green), all counterstained with NucBlue (DAPI; blue). (A) Staining of endothelial cells in the chorion and lower labyrinth layer with an anti-CD31 antibody (red; 400x). Ai6NEG (above) and Ai6POS (below). (B) Staining of placental pericytes in the labyrinth layer with an anti-αSMA antibody (red; 400x). Ai6NEG (above) and Ai6POS (below). White arrowheads show colocalization of ZsGreen with antibody staining.

‘One of the darkest days’: NIH purges agency leadership amid mass layoffs
In shock move, four institute directors at the US biomedical agency are removed from their posts.
Director of the Nat'l Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) was summarily dismissed yesterday. So here's your reminder that birth defects kill twice as many American kids as cancer. But there is no St. Jude's for birth defects. Only the NICHD.

Joint Letter to Elections Ontario and Mr. Greg Essensa, Ontario’s Chief Electoral Officer, Re: On-campus polling stations
Where did the post-secondary Ontario Polling stations go? For many undergraduate students, this is their first election. Why are we not making it easier for our youth to engage in elections? How easy is it to find elections information at your institution? www.osstf.on.ca/en-CA/news/j...
