I pledge allegiance to myself,
my family, and those who support
Equity,
Inclusion,
And Civil Liberties for all,
And to this Earth upon which stands
Humankind, deserving of
Education,
Healthcare,
And Social Justice for all.

As an American, I am so sorry and ashamed of my country. What is happening here is horrifying.

A guide to what the U.S. Education Department does (and doesn't) do The department tracks student achievement, manages college financial aid and sends K-12 schools money to support students with disabilities and lower-income communities, among other things.

Theyโ€™ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We arenโ€™t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

TWO PART THREAD.

When I see/hear the WONDERFUL @warren.senate.gov, I remember that she attended George Washington Uni 1966-1968; Uni of Houston, B.S. Speech Pathology & Audiology, 1970; Rutgers University, J.D., 1976. She worked as a NJ elementary school SLP in the early 1970s.

Update: They were removed from our reviewer assignments completely. I'm so sorry to all those graduate students. 

Anonymous to protect the identity of the NIH employee I spoke to...I am on study section next month to discuss F awards. We were just instructed to put the F31-Diversity applications on the bottom of our priority list for review because there is a chance we may not be able to review them. My heart is breaking for the grad students and their mentors that put so much work into these just for them to be disqualified and thrown out.

Just in case you thought that removing DEI criteria would mean that everyone is competing equally: NIH is removing grad students from underrepresented backgrounds from the applicant pool altogether. Their applications will not be considered. Other students, not from these backgrounds, will be.
